Running Linux by Matt Welsh, Lar Kaufman One of the best books on Linux, the UNIX-compatible operating system for personal computers. In the tradition of all O'Reilly
books, Running Linux features clear, step-by-step instructions that always seem to provide just the right amount of information:
covers everything you need in order to understand, install, and use the Linux operating system, including X Windows, TCP/IP, Perl,
Tcl/TK, the gcc C and C++ compilers, and most Internet services such as email, SLIP, and WWW.
Linux Network Administrator's Guide by Olaf Kirch, Andy Oram (Editor) If you are running a one- or two-system LAN using Linux, you probably only need simple connectivity between your systems.
However, if you are setting up a Linux server for your network and its connection to the Internet, you've got a lot of work to do in
installation, configuration, and maintenance---and you probably require some assistance. Olaf Kirch wrote Linux Network
Administrator's Guide as part of the Linux Documentation Project to cover just such information. Although you can download the
book for free, the O'Reilly version of the book looks (better layout and graphics) and feels better than the online version and has a
superlative index.
This book details all the tasks associated with e-mail setup and maintenance, news group setup, and essential network applications
such as rcp and rlogin. In some cases you may find the level of detail not sufficient to complete the task. In those cases, Kirch tells
you where to find more detailed information on the Internet. This methodology has kept the book to a very handy size, which makes
it an easy-to-use, versatile resource for anyone managing a Linux network.
Beginning Linux Programming by Neil Matthew, Richard StonesIf you've already got Linux up and running on your machine and you really want to exploit its capabilities, Beginning Linux
Programming is packed full of useful information that will keep you busy for weeks. In spite of its title, Beginning Linux Programming
isn't oriented toward novices. It assumes that you're a competent programmer but are simply new to the specifics of Linux. Authors
Neil Matthew and Richard Stones introduce a plethora of fundamental concepts including shell programming, file access, and using
curses to write full-screen, character-based programs. But that's just the start. They cover advanced topics such as processes,
pipes, semaphores, and sockets--and of course, they address issues common to Internet programming such as using CGI
(Common Gateway Interface). The book is a superb resource for anyone who has really wanted to put the pedal to the metal in
Linux. ; Paperback
