Linux cookbook

Meer over het boek

This valuable collection of tips, tools, and scripts offers hands-on solutions for managing Linux servers, from small networks to large data centers, in a practical problem-solution format. It covers essential topics like backups and user management, while also addressing often-overlooked challenges faced by administrators, such as dealing with unsupported devices, building multi-boot systems, and managing multimedia. The knowledge required for installing, deploying, and maintaining Linux is not easily accessible, as no distribution provides a perfect solution. Information is scattered across man pages, texinfo files, and source code comments, making insights from experienced experts crucial. This cookbook distills years of expertise into practical, cut-and-paste solutions for everyday dilemmas. Utilizing just one recipe can save hours of trial-and-error, justifying the book's cost. For hands-on learners, it not only resolves immediate issues but also highlights potential pitfalls and illustrates best practices applicable to various situations. Whether managing a small or large Linux system, or a mixed Linux/Windows/MacOS network, this collection offers concise, practical recipes that serve as both time-savers and sanity savers.
