Ebook: Linux Network Administrator's Guide ( )

Linux Network Administrator's Guide , one of the most successful books to come from the Linux Documentation Project, touches on all the essential networking software included with the operating system, plus some hardware considerations. Fully updated, this impressive, comprehensive introduction to networking on Linux now covers firewalls, including the use of ipchains and iptables (netfilter), masquerading, and accounting. Other new topics include Novell (NCP/IPX) support and INN (news administration). Original material on serial connections, UUCP, routing and DNS, mail and News, SLIP and PPP, NFS, and NIS has been thoroughly updated. Kernel options reflect the 2.2 kernel. However, some topics covered in other books (notably Samba and web server administration) are not in this book.
