Re: [SLUG] Routing Book
A friend of mine actually just bought a book called "Linux Routers" (I think) - a had a quick flick through it, and it had everything from LRP to which WAN cards worked best etc... it's hardcover and definitely lives at tech Dymocks in the city... have a look.. :) //umar. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug

Other than that, it looks like a good book. the one i have is the 2nd edition (1995)... i am pretty sure that there is a new edition on the way, but not sure how far along it will be... what is developed well in the book is a process approach to certain tasks rather then a blow by blow account (ie. type "this" in, then "this"... etc. etc.) later marty "I can't buy what I want because it's free.

[SLUG] Routing Book
Hi, Can anyway suggest a good Book on configuring Linux as a router. I am still having some problems and think it might be time to read up and maybe get a grasp on what should be happening rather than what is happening. ideally something that deals with many scenarious including dialup, LAN and WAN. Also a good Book on Linux in generaladmin etc .I use Redhat. regards Alister Waller (B.
