>This documentation will attempt to summarize the installation and
|
|
configuration, as well as the day-to-day administrative and maintenance
|
|
procedures that should be followed to keep a Linux-based server or desktop
|
|
system up and running. It is geared to an audience of both corporate as
|
|
well as home users. It is not intended to be a full overview of Unix
|
|
operations, as there are several good texts available as well as on-line
|
|
documentation which can be referred to in cases where more detailed
|
|
information is required.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>In general, your Linux system can operate with a minimum of user
|
|
maintenance. Routine tasks, such as rotating and discarding of system
|
|
logs, are automated. Therefore, for the most part, even with very little
|
|
user intervention, Linux will hum along doing its job. However, in cases
|
|
of custom needs or system failure this documentation may prove
|
|
useful.</P
|
|

|
|
>I currently use Linux both at home and at my place of employment.
|
|
It has served me well, and has worked as a reliable Internet and
|
|
file/print service for my employer for over four years now.</P
