Summary: What can Linux make for you?
Comment: The book approaches the principal subjects on Linux, FileSharing, LDPA, WebServer, FTPServer and etc, all very well documented, rich in details and examples. He was lacking documentation on LinuxClient (KDE, Gnome, applications for the user in general) very superficial. But it is a book that should be bought and read, all the topics are very interesting and useful, while I read I was thrilled, because other solutions NON microsoft exist.

Summary: A hybrid
Comment: Actually, 5 stars as a quick reference, 1 star as an administrator manual. This is a somewhat weird book. Heaven help any company when an administrator decides to switch a NT network to Linux, or set up Linux from scratch, with just this book. If everything goes well, the network will run, but if something goes wrong, good luck trying to recover. But curiously enough, it is usually the book I reach for if I can't remember exactly how setting something up works. Short, to the point coverage of how to install or setup things. But if your options don't include nuke-and-reinstall, find an administrator handbook somewhere to supplement it.

Summary: Penguin anywhere!
Comment: It is a great book! It covers a lot of detail in deploying Linux, the consideration, advantage, and most important, the procedure. I have setup my fax server, database server, file-and-print server, web server, e-mail server, all running on Linux, after reading this book!
