The Accidental Administrator: Linux Server Step-by-Step Configuration Guide
The Accidental Administrator: Linux Server Step-by-Step Configuration Guide is packed with 44 easy-to-follow hands-on exercises plus numerous command examples and screen captures to help you build a working Linux server configuration from scratch. It's the most straight-forward approach to learning how to configure a CentOS/Red Hat/Fedora Linux server (the book is based on version 5.4 and 5.5), filled with practical tips and secrets learned from years of teaching, consulting, and administering Linux servers. There is no time wasted on boring theory.
The essentials are covered in chapters on installing, administering, user management, file systems and directory management, networking, package management, automated task scheduling, network services, Samba, NFS, disk quotas, mail servers, Web and FTP servers, desktop sharing, printing, security, routing, performance monitoring, management tools, and more.
Here's what you'll find:
- How to configure an Apache Web server, including virtual hosts
- How to configure file and printer sharing for Windows clients with Samba
- How to understand Linux file and directory permissions
All this information is presented in a straightforward style that you can understand and use right away. The idea is for you to be able to sit down with your Linux server and build a working configuration in a matter of minutes. Of course, some of the more advanced configs may take a little longer, but even so, you'll be able to "get it done" in a minimal amount of time!
