RE: E-Books on Networking and Security
I've seen book sites like this in the past. I've found that often, if not always, the books have been taken from a publisher's free e-book site, particularly the Macmillan books. I've also found that they are out of date and/or incomplete. And difficult to read. For me, these "free" ebooks give me the incentive to buy the actual book. .02 Ray Mosely CCNA, MCSE -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Priscilla Oppenheimer Sent: Monday, January 22, 2001 8:14 PM To: Rajeev Soni; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: E-Books on Networking and Security At 08:37 AM 1/22/01, Rajeev Soni wrote: >Check it out. > >http://www.securax.org/roocoocoo/books/all.shtml Do you think the author of that site really has permission to publish all those books?

RE: E-Books on Networking and Security
I share you sentiments too, Priscilla. It looks a good site with lots of content for cert hunters like us ! Their ethics of teaching people to be good hackers is good, remember a hacker is good, its a cracker you should watch out for. Do you think they really meant that though ?
