Product: UNIX and Linux System Administration Handbook

I’ve owned three of the four editions of this book over the years, starting with the second one and having heard murmerings about the awesomeness of the first from colleagues. This book proves that Unix and Linux Systems Administration texts can be well written. I read somewhere that Tim O’Reilly wanted to emulate the quality of this book when he set up his company. The clarity that this book provides for core administration tasks is exceptional and it’s a pity that few other books on the subject have approached this level of quality. I read somewhere that this will be the last edition of this book - which depresses me greatly. The core stuff is all here. How you do it changes over time. I hope that sometime in the near future there is a 5th edition.
