|
||
>This edition of the Networking Guide owes almost everything to the
|
||
outstanding work of Olaf and Vince. It is difficult to appreciate the
|
||
effort that goes into researching and writing a book of this nature
|
||
until you've had a chance to work on one yourself. Updating the book
|
||
was a challenging task, but with an excellent base to work from, it
|
||
was an enjoyable one.</P
|
||
><P
|
||
>This book owes very much to the numerous people who took the time to
|
||
proof-read it and help iron out many mistakes, both technical and
|
||
grammatical (never knew that there was such a thing as a dangling
|
||
participle). Phil Hughes, John Macdonald, and Erik Ratcliffe all
|
||
provided very helpful (and on the whole, quite consistent) feedback on
|
||
the content of the book.</P
|
||
><P
|
||
>We also owe many thanks to the people at O'Reilly we've had the
|
||
pleasure to work with: Sarah Jane Shangraw, who got the book into the
|
||
shape you can see now; Maureen Dempsey, who copyedited the text; Rob
|
||
Romano, Rhon Porter, and Chris Reilley, who created all the figures;
|
||
Hanna Dyer, who designed the cover; Alicia Cech, David Futato, and
|
||
Jennifer Niedherst for the internal layout; Lars Kaufman for
|
||
suggesting old woodcuts as a visual theme; Judy Hoer for the index;
|
||
and finally, Tim O'Reilly for the courage to take up such a project.</P
|
||
><P
|
||
>We are greatly indebted to Andres Sep<65>lveda, Wolfgang Michaelis,
|
||
Michael K. Johnson, and all developers who spared the time to check
|
||
the information provided in the Networking Guide. Phil Hughes, John
|
||
MacDonald, and Eric Ratcliffe contributed invaluable comments on the
|
||
second edition. We also wish to thank all those who read the first version
|
||
of the Networking Guide and sent corrections and suggestions. You can find
|
||
a hopefully complete list of contributors in the file
|

|
||
would not have been possible without the support of Holger Grothe, who
|
||
provided Olaf with the Internet connectivity he needed to make the original
|
||
version happen.</P
|
||
><P
|
||
>Olaf would also like to thank the following groups and companies that
|
||
printed the first edition of the Networking Guide and have donated
|
||
money either to him or to the Linux Documentation Project as a whole:
|
||
Linux Support Team, Erlangen, Germany; S.u.S.E. GmbH, Fuerth, Germany;
|
||
and Linux System Labs, Inc., Clinton Twp., United States, RedHat
|
||
Software, North Carolina, United States.</P
|
||
><P
|
||
>Terry thanks his wife, Maggie, who patiently supported him throughout
|
||
his participation in the project despite the challenges presented by
|
||
the birth of their first child, Jack. Additionally, he thanks the
|
||
<I
|
||
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
|
||
>many</I
|
||
> people of the Linux community who either
|
||
nurtured or suffered him to the point at which he could actually take
|
||
part and actively contribute. “I'll help you if you promise to
|
||
help someone else in return.”</P
