does (essential==basic)?
16 Feb 2001
Format:Paperback
I thought this was a reference book. It's just thirteen short chapters of basic stuff that can be found by typing man intro (or going to docs.sun.com).
Good for absolute beginners only. Just like Sobell.

Very Incomplete
31 Jan 2002
Format:Paperback
This book is woeful - 300 pages or so is just a short guide, nothing like a reference book at all. Use the man pages instead. There is very little contribution from the author.

shallow, occasionally useful
19 Dec 2001
Format:Paperback
Sometimes I find something useful in this book, but most the time it just sits on my shelf while I look things up online. I bought this because I wanted to make the transition from Linux user to Solaris user. In penguin-speak, this author did a --help on a bunch of commands and put them together in hard copy.
If you think 1.5 pages on syslogd is something useful then buy this book. If you're a newbie then avoid this one completely.
