4.0 out of 5 stars Good, short read, 18 Dec 2005

By	Mr. E. W. Neville "ed neville" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book covers a lot of topics in short, many of the hacks are user contributed. Listing all the topics here would take too much space. This book would be ideal for a new system admin. Most of the system admin features that a linux user migrating to BSD is after are covered in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great!, 12 Jun 2005

By	F. McClure "_astroman1" (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you want quick solutions to BSD problems....then this is the book for you. It is by no means a big reference text. You should consider FreeBSD unleashed or Absolute BSD for that.
