 Amazing... August 27, 1999

...how such a LARGE book can contain so LITTLE useful information. Pp. 1-45 are a pretty good guide to installing the distribution, but the rest is such a waste I put it in the trash to save shelf space. For an equally dated, but far more informative guide, try out Butzen and Hilton's _The Linux Network_.
Too many cooks... October 21, 1999
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book makes a good starting point for installing RedHat. However, this book lacks a cohesive thread. Each chapter or unit appears to have been written by a different author or group of authors. Lots of redundencies occur that wouldn't if the book had been written by one person or one group of people instead of many and then edited.
Well written but dated. October 17, 1998

As noted by other reviewers; this book has good introductory info, but it is dated. The newest versions of Red Hat (RH) Linux have made leaps and bounds in package/network/kernel management. Those upgrades are covered better in books like "LINUX Network Toolkit" by Paul Sery, than in this book (which supposedly focusses on RH software).
 It s nice for beginers August 24, 1998

This book covers a lot of the Red hat linux distribution and has good chapters in automating tasks and in server (html , ftp , mail) configuration , but sometimes it doesnt have enough information (like internationalisation , dead keys , etc ) and then you will have to figure things out for yourself.
A lot of pages with little content. March 28, 1999
rsutton@sympatico.ca (Belleville, Ontario, Canada)
This book is a clumsy effort to produce as many pages as possible with little content and lots of typos: 'lila' as LILO, '\' as root. I only bought it to get on the net. The chapter on PPP suddenly says 'make sure the file is an executable' with no reference to chmod.
