Product: SELinux: NSA’s Open Source Security Enhanced Linux Personally, I prefer books to focus either concepts or detailed implementation instructions not both. For complex topics like SELinux, you typically cannot fit the conceptual and pragmatic within one book. McCarty’s SELINUX is no exception. SELINUX provides an excellent overview of concepts but struggles with SELinux policy implementation methods and procedures. I suspect the topic is simply too large for one volume. What implementation advice presented is clear and concise but you will have to search elsewhere for more detailed deployment advice.

Product: RHCSA/RHCE Red Hat Linux Certification Study Guide First of all, this book is meant to help you study for two different exams. This means that the topic are covered in a bit of a strange order. First, the RHCSA is covered. This is the Red Hat entry level exam. Unless you are a long time sysadmin, you can expect to learn quite a bit from this part of the book, even if you have been running Linux as a normal user for years (as I have).

Product: The Hack-Counter Hack Training Course This training course is excellent for those who take the time to do everything in this book from cover to cover…lesson by lesson…if you do not know linux you may get into trouble when compiling certain required modules only to find out that there were compilation errors suggesting missing symbolic links and or missing libraries e.g. GTK which then have to be downloaded and installed…too much time was spent on the elementary and not enough on the advanced…overall excellent.

Product: Linux Bible I picked this behemoth up at a local book store, and would like to share my views so far. I have two books for Linux beginners, this one and the no starch press book. I have not read either of them more then the first chapter, but from some bouncing around, I would have to say I am much more ‘compelled’ to read this book, the Linux Bible 8th edition, as it captivates me in such a way the NSP simply doesn’t.

Product: Linux (Hacking Exposed) Hacking Linux Exposed by Brian Hatch, James Lee and George Kurtz, is a nice follow-up to their bestselling Hacking Exposed . While not as groundshaking as its predecessor, the new book does provide a good reference for people just starting with Linux. Anyone who is setting up or planning to set up a Linux network should consider owning it, together with the appropriate Linux administration manuals.

Product: The Linux Command Line: A Complete Introduction William E. Shotts, Jr.s The Linux Command Line is a book that attempts to give new users a thorough grounding in the peculiar bestiary of the Linux command line itself. Other books Ive looked at attempt to speak to two audiences, novices looking for an introduction as well as the power user looking to pick up a few new tricks. Shotts book is focused squarely on beginners, and attempts to give them a solid overview of the way to do things on the command line, as well as how to learn more.
