Product Description

Review
"A good book to get to grips with TCP/IP, providing good foundations." - Jon Kent, Linux Format, October 2002

Product Description
This complete guide to setting up and running a TCP/IP network is aimed at network administrators, as well as users of home systems that access the Internet. The book starts with the fundamentals - what protocols do and how they work, how addresses and routing are used to move data through the network, how to set up your network connection - and then covers, in detail, everything you need to know to exchange information via the Internet. Included are discussions on advanced routing protocols (RI Pv2, OSPF, and BGP) and the gated software package that implements them, a tutorial on configuring important network services - including DNS, Apache, sendmail, Samba, PPP, and DHCP - as well as expanded chapters on troubleshooting and security. The book is also a command and syntax reference for important packages such as gated, pppd, named, dhcpd, and sendmail. With coverage that includes Linux, Solaris, BSD, and System V TCP/IP implementations, this third edition contains: overview of TCP/IP; delivering the data; network services; getting started; basic configuration; configuring the interface; configuring routing; configuring DNS; configuring network servers; configuring sendmail; configuring Apache; network security; troubleshooting; appendices include dip, ppd, and chat reference, a gated reference, a dhcpd reference, and a sendmail reference. This edition also includes ways of configuring Samba to provide file and print sharing on networks that integrate Unix and Windows, and a new chapter is dedicated to the important task of configuring the Apache web server. Coverage of network security now includes details on OpenSSH, stunnel, gpg, iptables, and the access control mechanism in xinetd. Plus, the book offers updated information about DNS, including details on BIND 8 and BIND 9, the role of classless IP addressing and network prefixes, and the changing role of registrars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Answers all those "Hmmm" questions, 11 Oct 2002
By Dave (Birmingham, England) - See all my reviews
I thought I had a good understanding of TCP/IP, but with the need to grasp Mail Services and SSH, I started to get lost.

This book helped me no end. I read it through cover to cover and it gave me a much better understanding of not only TCP/IP but some of the more popular services that run over it. It covers basic TCP/IP methodology (including the dreaded ISO seven layer model), through subnet masking and routing as well as basic DNS, Sendmail and Apache configuration.

I now feel I can go back and read the Bat (Sendmail) and Grasshoppers (DNS & BIND) books and get a lot more out of them.

This book looks like it will fit firmly in among the numerous other O'Reilly books on my desk. I'm thinking - do O'Reilly offer a discount if I buy all of there books ;-)

I would recommend this book to people who think they know enough to get by, and those just entering into the world of TCP/IP.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not much to say, 8 April 2003
I like the O'Reilly series and how they present information.
This is one of the first O'Reilly books I bought while working in an ISP and Web Hosting company and it became a cherished reference though my copy is older and their are bound to be revisions I can't recommend this enough for anyone who works with TCP/IP networks on any level.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for any network administrator, 13 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: TCP/IP Network Administration (Paperback)
In the first chapters this book crams in a lot of background info which makes you go "Ahh! So thats why....". The following chapters are the most clearly explained guide to 'actually doing it'. Well done the author, and all involved with the project.
