Product Description
Product Description
“As an author, editor, and publisher, I never paid much attention to the competition–except in a few cases. This is one of those cases. The UNIX System Administration Handbook is one of the few books we ever measured ourselves against.”
–From the Foreword by Tim O’Reilly, founder of O’Reilly Media
“This book is fun and functional as a desktop reference. If you use UNIX and Linux systems, you need this book in your short-reach library. It covers a bit of the systems’ history but doesn’t bloviate. It’s just straightfoward information delivered in colorful and memorable fashion.”
–Jason A. Nunnelley
“This is a comprehensive guide to the care and feeding of UNIX and Linux systems. The authors present the facts along with seasoned advice and real-world examples. Their perspective on the variations among systems is valuable for anyone who runs a heterogeneous computing facility.”
–Pat Parseghian
The twentieth anniversary edition of the world’s best-selling UNIX system administration book has been made even better by adding coverage of the leading Linux distributions: Ubuntu, openSUSE, and RHEL.

Customer Reviews
It's very in depth and covers just about all you need to know for sysadmin. It does take some basic knowledge of linux to make sense, so isn't a newbie book or a dummies guide but if you run linux at home already, you can't fault the content.
As a trainee sysadmin this should give a great head-start on the competition and is inexpensive compared with 3 day training courses.
Listmania!
