Product Description
0596007604.01. SCLZZZZZZZ  Running Linux
You may be contemplating your first Linux installation. Or you may have been using Linux for years and need to know more about adding a network printer or setting up an FTP server. “Running Linux,” now in its fifth edition, is the book you’ll want on hand in either case. Widely recognized in the Linux community as the ultimate getting-started and problem-solving book, it answers the questions and tackles the configuration issues that frequently plague users, but are seldom addressed in other books.

This fifth edition of “Running Linux” is greatly expanded, reflecting the maturity of the operating system and the teeming wealth of software available for it. Hot consumer topics such

as audio and video playback applications, groupware functionality, and spam filtering are covered, along with the basics in configuration and management that always have made the book popular.

“Running Linux” covers basic communications such as mail, web surfing, and instant messaging, but also delves into the subtleties of network configuration–including dial-up, ADSL, and cable modems–in case you need to set up your network manually. The book can

make you proficient on office suites and personal productivity applications–and also tells you what programming tools are available if you’re interested in contributing to these applications.

Other new topics in the fifth edition include encrypted email and filesystems, advanced shell techniques, and remote login applications. Classic discussions on booting, package management, kernel recompilation, and X configuration have also been updated.

The authors of “Running Linux” have anticipated problem areas, selected stable andpopular solutions, and provided clear instructions to ensure that you’ll have a satisfying experience using Linux. The discussion is direct and complete enough to guide novice users, while still providing the additional information experienced users will need to progress in their mastery of Linux.

Whether you’re using Linux on a home workstation or maintaining a network server, “Running Linux” will provide expert advice just when you need it.

From the Publisher
Linux is the most exciting development today in the UNIX world — and some would say in the world of the PC-compatible. A complete, UNIX-compatible operating system developed by volunteers on the Internet, Linux is distributed freely in electronic form and for low cost from many vendors. Its software packages include the X Window System (X11R6); TCP/IP networking (including SLIP, PPP, and NFS support); popular software tools such as Emacs and TeX; a complete software development environment including C, C++, Perl, Tcl/Tk, and more; libraries, debuggers, multimedia support, scientific and database applications, and much more. Developed first on the PC, it has been ported to many other architectures, and a POSIX-compliant version has even been developed. Running Linux explains everything you need to understand, install, and start using the Linux operating system. This includes a comprehensive installation tutorial, complete information on system maintenance, tools for document development and programming, and guidelines for network and web site administration. New topics in the second edition include: Printer configuration, management, and use Configuration of network clients for NFS and NIS Expanded information on configuring a wide range of hardware devices Updated configuration information for the kernel and XFree86. –This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
