Sams Teach Yourself Unix System Administration in 24 Hours

Sams Teach Yourself Series

by Dave Taylor

In the wake of the highly successful Sams Teach Yourself Unix in 24 Hours , this book focuses on the additional Unix commands that an advanced user or beginning system administrator needs to know in order to administer and maintain a Unix system. The book includes coverage of the key Unix Red Hat Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, and Apple's Mac OS X environment. The book will not be a comprehensive solution to all problems facing new system administrators, but instead is a tutorial introduction to the process of learning about and maintaining a running Unix server.
