Linux Network Administrator's Guide Revised and Expanded
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sebastopol, CA--Olaf Kirch originally wrote "Linux Network
|
|
Administrator's Guide" as part of the Linux Documentation Project to
|
|
enable users to master all those day-to-day, practical issues that
|
|
arise in Linux networking. It proved so invaluable a text on Linux
|
|
networking, that O'Reilly & Associates published it in book form.
|
|
|
|
"'Linux Network Administrator's Guide' is an LDP work, it's a free
|
|
documentation project," says Terry Dawson, the book's co-author. "The
|
|
end result is an example of the synergy that can result when a company
|
|
like O'Reilly is brave enough to support a project in spite of the
|
|
knowledge that some of their work and effort may assist competitors."
|
|
|
|
Now fully updated in its second edition, this impressive, comprehensive
|
|
introduction to networking on Linux covers firewalls--including the use
|
|
of ipchains and iptables (netfilter)--masquerading, and accounting.
|
|
Other new topics include Novell (NCP/IPX) support and INN (news
|
|
administration). Original material on serial connections, UUCP, routing
|
|
and DNS, Mail and News, SLIP and PPP, NFS, and NIS has been thoroughly
|
|
updated.
|
|
|
|
"Networking is critically important to Linux. Linux was born of the
|
|
Internet and now plays a part in driving the growth of the Internet.
|
|
The synergy between the two is very exciting. Linux administrators can
|
|
expect to see greater sophistication in the tools available to them for
|
|
network administration. They can also expect to see increased depth and
|
|
breadth of the scope of tools. What is available now is just the
|
|
beginning," says Dawson.
|
|
|
|
Olaf Kirch, co-author, agrees. "I believe Linux is here to stay. During
|
|
the next year or two, we'll see a consolidation of the Linux market,
|
|
with 'serious' companies stepping up their involvement in the Linux
|
|
arena: hardware vendors creating their own Linux distributions, etc.
|
|
Network admins will have to be familiar with Linux."
|
|
