Linux Book
Ive been using Linux now for about 2-3months but i doubt im using Linux to its full potential or making sure its secure.
Anyone know a good book that isnt exactly for complete newbies to linux but still has some beginner type stuff. Ive searched everywhere on some linux sites some books look not too bad but itd be good to get some actual feedback on some books that are not so dated. |
For my sparce $'s, I recomend Running Linux 4th Edition. Around 40 bucks depending on where you get it.

Hello!
Please take a look at http://linux.oreilly.com/ Running Linux, 4th Edition By Matt Welsh, Matthias Kalle Dalheimer, Terry Dawson, Lar Kaufman Linux in a Nutshell Fourth Edition by Ellen Siever, Aaron Weber, Stephen Figgins The Linux Cookbook, 2nd Edition By Michael Stutz How Linux Works By Brian Ward A Practical Guide to Red Hat Linux Second Edition by Mark G. Sobell GNU/ Linux Bible Red Hat Fedora Linux 2 Bible by Christopher Negus Linux+ Certification Bible by Trevor Kay Here you can find usefull commands: http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/linux/cmd/ Here you can find other good books. Boby |
Redhat has some excellent and free manuals. Take a look at:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/ Even though these are for redhat's enterprise product they're sufficiently general to be very useful. There are two on System Administration, a Reference Guide, a Security Guide and a Step by Step (getting started) guide. |
Thank you very much for the list there. Two of the ones i thought were good were listed so that makes my decsion much much easier :D
|
A good starting place to look for documentation on the web is the linux documentation project website. www.tldp.org.
The Linux Cookbook mentioned by Boby is very good. It deals with what you can do with linux, such as using the ImageMagick program rather than on system administration. |
how much time did you wrote on this poooooooost?? :D
man! very long, but very good! Boby |
:study: that is one nice collection of links there :eek: that would be good when im online and stuff however i doubt im going to be online 100% of the time so a good book wouldnt go badly even if its 1-2yrs out of date unlike windows linux doesnt change dramatically which is why i love it so much :p

gsoft; add this one too; Linux Complete: Sybex pub. bit dated but most current, inquired with sybex that,s the most current. highly recommend it,
easy to read & comprehensive. |
shengchieh; thank you for list! hard copied it. this will come very handy indeed! thank you again!

That's a lot of links!
I found that the "LPIC Certification in a Nutshell" by O'Reilly is great. It teaches you everything you could ever want to know about command line. Granted a lot of newcomers "think" they dont want to use command line. I was one of them.. But once you learn what goes on under the hood of the GUI, it makes you want to know more. You have so much more control over processes when you use command line. Grab the book, open up a console, work some magic.. get certified in the process!! -myk |
