Customer Reviews & Comments
I received the book this week, and truly I'm delighted with it. It's not a big book, and probably that's one of its main virtues: each chapter is very focused and manageable and, in a few hours (or minutes, depending on whom), matters can be applied with confidence. I liked especially those chapters concerning wireless networking and LDAP. As it's based on the LDP (Linux Documentation Project), the subjects are accessible there (http://www.tldp.org). I'm one of those who still prefer an O'Reilly book :).
