binh 55adb9e7a5 In the Glossary, it's better to state the meaning of an abbreviation
first:

DHCP   Add "Dynamic Host Control Protocol." as the first words of this
paragraph.
DNS   Add "Domain Name System." as the first words of this paragraph.
Change the last sentence to start with "Also known as Domain Name
Service, Domain Name Server.".
MTA   Add "Mail Transfer Agent." as the first words of this paragraph.
Change the third sentence to read "...move mail from one server to
another are called MTAs.".
NFS   Add "Network File System" as the first words of this paragraph.
Change "NFS is the UNIX equivalent of SMB." to "NFS is the UNIX
equivalent of Server Message Block (SMB).".

binh 27106a3d07 In the glossary under core
"If would like to determine"
perhaps it should be "If you would like to determine"

under inode
What the heck does the i stand for?
Information? Index? Item? Identification? Internal?
(Beuller? Beuller? Anyone?)

(Have to look this up)

man page
"The man pages are the authoritative about your UNIX system."
Authoritative what? Documentation?
(I'm not sounding cranky here. I just think it looks like a glitch.)

pipes and sockets
"the /dev/directory."
could be "the /dev/ directory."

symbolic link or soft link
"A special file type, which is a small pointer, file ..."
looks awkward, could be
"A special file type, which is a small pointer file, ..."
