Book Description:
How do you find the right Linux book? Most of them are either too technical, too superficial, or they cover the wrong distribution. Finally, there's a book that offers the perfect balance: The Linux Book. It'll never insult your intelligence, nor will it make you wade through 1,000 pages of technical gibberish! You'll find the information you really need to install, configure, and maintain any current version of Linux (and integrate it seamlessly with your existing computers). If you don't need it, it's not here. If you do need it, it is. It's that simple! The Linux Book even presents a chapter-length cost-benefit analysis for any organization considering Linux. Whether you plan to run your desktop or your entire network with Linux, you won't find a more useful, practical guide!

• Step-by-step installation and configuration
