Synopsis

Dan Morrill fills in the gap between the simple basics covered in most texts and advanced, specialized topics; his readers gain a genuine mastery of how Linux systems are designed and come away with insight to work with any distribution, even one not discussed in the book. The books covers detailed analyses of three popular Linux distributions, example configuration and administration tasks, and three real-world case studies.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Linux-based operating systems are extremely powerful and flexible, but unlocking that power and flexibility requires knowledge and understanding of how the systems work. Tuning and Customizing a Linux System goes beyond the mere basics of using and administrating Linux systems-it covers how the systems are designed. Through detailed analyses of popular Linux distributions, real-world case studies, and example configurations and administration tasks, you will come away with a genuine mastery of Linux-based operating systems (as well as Unix-like systems in general). Tuning and Customizing a Linux System is geared toward users of Linux systems who already know the basics but aren't yet gurus. The author fills in the gaps left by other books, creating a bridge from the basic "how to" to the plane of true mastery. You'll find detailed examples of what a Linux distribution actually consists of, and youll explore explore three popular distributions in detail, learning useful techniques along the way. This comprehensive guide provides you with a complete, practical understanding of what's going on under the covers.
