“Consider air. Consider listening to the radio. Consider beers bought by a friend. LINUX combines aspects of all three.” David Bonn, Seattle Software
LINUX means freedom for business systems.
Businesses are discovering that LINUX can bring them powerful, flexible, customizable computing at a fraction of the cost of other UNIX® operating systems. In this in-depth book, Jim Mohr shows how you can use LINUX as your primary operating system at work and at home.
LINUX can run on a mere 2 Mb of RAM, yet it is powerful enough to be the operating system behind over 10 percent of WorldWide Web servers. It allows multi-tasking for multiple users, and can run on a network or alone. Best of all, you get direct access to all the source code, so you can tweak it to meet your precise operating needs—and to grow and change with your organization.
LINUX User's Resource is not about telling you which buttons to push. Rather, it provides a full introduction to the function and interactions at the heart of the LINUX system. Topics include:
*The operating system and its environment.
*LINUX shells and utilities.
*System installation, administration, monitoring, and upgrading.
*Problem solving for business applications.
Because LINUX is ideal for Internet entrepreneurs, special focus is given to:
*Networking with LINUX.
*Building an Internet server.
*Doing business on the WorldWide Web.
LINUX User's Resource gives you all you need to get your business up and running with LINUX. About the Author
