They then show you in detail how to set up network and Internet services, from establishing a network file system to configuring mail services. Eight chapters give you the lowdown on customizing the kernel, automating tasks with scripting, performing backups, and more—the nuts-and-bolts maintenance information you need to keep your system running smoothly. And last but not least, the authors provide nearly 100 pages of proven strategies and tips for maintaining system security.
