Description

If you're an experienced system administrator looking to acquire Linux
skills, or a seasoned Linux user facing a new challenge, Linux System
Administration offers practical knowledge for managing a complete range
of Linux systems and servers. The book summarizes the steps you need to build
everything from standalone SOHO hubs, web servers, and LAN servers to
load-balanced clusters and servers consolidated through virtualization. Along
the way, you'll learn about all of the tools you need to set up and maintain
these working environments.
Linux is now a standard corporate platform with users numbering in the
hundreds of millions, and there is a definite shortage of talented
administrators. Linux System Administration is ideal as an
introduction to Linux for Unix veterans, MCSEs, and mainframe administrators,
and as an advanced (and refresher) guide for existing Linux administrators who
will want to jump into the middle of the book. Inside, you'll learn how to:

Set up a stand-alone Linux server
Install, configure, maintain, and troubleshoot a DNS server using BIND
Build an Internet server to manage sites, perform email and file
transfers, and more
Set up an email service for a small-to-medium-sized site, complete with
authentication
Install and configure Apache, PHP, and MySQL on a web server built from
scratch
Combine computers into a load-balanced Apache web server cluster based
on the free Linux Virtual Server
Set up local network services from distributed file systems to DHCP
services, gateway services, print services, user management and more
Use Linux virtualization with Xen or VMWare to run multiple kernels on
one piece of hardware; manage each kernel's access to processor time,
devices, and memory
Create shell scripts and adapt them for your own needs
Back up and restore data with rsync, tar, cdrecord, Amanda, and
MySQL tools
Linux System Administration is not only knowledgeable and
practical, but convenient. The ingredients for this book had been scattered
throughout mailing lists, forums, and discussion groups, as well as books,
periodicals, and the experiences of colleagues. Everything is now in one handy
guide. In the course of their research, the authors also solved many problems
whose solutions were completely undocumented. They now pass their lessons on
to
you.
