Product: 0130084662 Excellent book for beginning administrators. However it is showing its age as it was printed before Linux kernal virtualization, Apache 2.x, ngix ,etc. became more polished Best to think of it as the first of several needed books. Rating: 3 0130084662 Count: 19

Product: 0470888458 Generally speaking: Book has about 80-90% of material for exam covered. Some topics require more tecnical details. This book is not for the begginers so make sure you comfortable with basics like shell and GUIs and of course general linux operativity. Exam questions are pretty tricky, it requieres lots of practice and detailed use of commands and configuration files. Books contains only useful information which is really good. I believe Mr.

Product: 0066620732 Linus Torvalds, as most geeks and many non-geeks know, is the person behind Linux, the operating system. This book provides a soap box for Linus to talk about what has driven him (computers, programming) towards his goal. He did not intend to create a phenomenal operating system; rather, he was content adding features to his terminal emulator until the fine day that it started to grow into an operating system.

Product: 0596008015 This book makes a handy quick refference for Linux setup and customization. The audience for this book is the experienced Linux user, but the reader doesn’t have to be an advanced Linux user (though, it helps). As someone who’s been using Linux for 7 years, there are some things explained in this book that are new to me, some things that I can do blindfolded, and some that I remember, but need to refresh when I actually need to do them.

Product: 0072253657 This is a good book to go through if you’re already a serious Linux user. If not, become one or take a class instead. The book starts with a quick over view of the basic skills for which you won’t be tested but will need to finish the exam (like using vim). It then proceeds through the exam objectives from hardware to system to applications (bottom up). At the end of each chapter are a ‘Two Minute Drill’ and a self test.

Product: RHCSA/RHCE Red Hat Linux Certification Study Guide Having read (and reviewed) the previous edition of this book, I can say that this book (the Sixth edition) delivers on the strong points as well as its predecessor. The book is organized in such a way to mirror the exams, which means the organization has changed from the previous edition. While I admit that I have no intention of taking the exams at this moment, I still find this book to be quite useful.

Product: 0596000715 O’Reilly and Bill McCarty have done it again - they’ve gone ahead and created an awesome intro Linux book. In the same vein as Running Linux by Matt Welsh (the bible), this is a really good book for anyone who wants to get into Linux. I have been a Linux user since 1991 back when no one really knew about Linux and the Kernel was still at 0.99. I cut my teeth on SLS and Slackware releases of Linux before moving to RedHat and the O’Reilly books have been just incredible.
