Can anybody recommend a decent book on Debian system administration? I stopped at the local computer store on my way home and browsed through books published by the usual suspects.
IIRC, I looked at Learning D Linux, D Unleashed, The D Bible. They were all very generic Linux books with "Debian" pasted onto the cover and some screenshots of a Debian installer stuck into one chapter. 90+ percent of the content was stuff like "intro to Java programming" "using the Gnome desktop" and various other stuff that's got nothing to do with Debian except for the fact that you could do it on a Debian machine. I'm looking for a good source of info that's specific to Debian systems. Something I can hand to an experienced Unix/Linux administrator who hasn't done Debian stuff before. I had high hopes for "Debian GNU/Linux: Guide to Installation and Usage" as mentioned under "Manuals" at http://www.debian.org/doc/, but following the link to New Riders yields nothing. Apparently the book is out of print. :( -- Grant Edwards grante @ visi.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
