Customer Reviews & Comments
As a Linux rookie, I found this book very useful. It has very topics and materials that you need to know about Redhat. The book taught me form the begining to advanced level. However, as a result of putting every things in it. It seems to me that lots of topics in this book are less explained as it should be. That means I have learned from the book but I could not really make use of them(as a network administrator). IT DOES JUST FINE FOR "LINUX NEWBIE".
