Summary: Linux learning curve elevator!
Review: A great step-by-step book for someone learning Linux! Very helpful in providing explanations for what you are doing, for example: the shortest, most informative explanation of TCP/IP, the authors really know how to write as well as knowing their subject. But this is not to say that the book is only for newbies, the sections on setting up servers is clear and well written also. A very good all around reference. By the way I was a beginner when I got the book and had read several other Linux books previously but was still at the bottom of the El Capitan Linux learning curve, this book was the elevator to the top for me.

Summary: Un buen libro sobre Administracion Red Hat
Review: Compre este libro con el objetivo de adquirir conocimiento relacionado a la administracion de servidores Red Hat, y sinceramente no he necesitado comprar otro. En 6 meses este libro me ha convertido en un buen administrador Red hat.
Pude hallar en el mismo toda la informacion necesaria para administrar sistemas internet sobre Red Hat. Si el libro no tiene cierta informacion, brinda un lugar donde hallarla.
Sus topicos sobre seguridad son tambien muy buenos aunque no profundos, ya que el libro no se orienta a ello.
Honestamente recomiendo el libro, como un libro general destinado a Administradores de Sistemas Red Hat, pero si deseas adquirir un profundo conocimiento sobre un area especifica del libro, deberas saltar a uno de los enlaces ofrecidos o adquirir otro libro adicional complementario.
Te recomiendo este libro si eres: novato en RedHat pero con solidos conocimientos en TCP/IP e Internetworking, tienes conocimientos sobre unix y deseas mejorarlos orientandolos a RedHat, eres un experto en NT/2000 y deseas un upgrade de tu nivel hacia RedHat.
Saludos y espero que mi revision te sirva.

Summary: Good ref for beginner/intermediate RH Iinux user
Review: I think this book covers a large part of the typical kinds of tasks that a begining to intermediate Red Hat user will need to know in an adequate way. It's not a "Dummies" book, because it has more depth and includes a lot of useful references for further study. But you don't have to be an experienced Linux user, either.

Experts will moan that it's not a typical O'Reilly "Nutshell" book. But this book is for those who need more tutorials and a mild hand-holding for the hard stuff. I think it hits the "middle ground" in a useful way.

The book was written about the time RH 6.2 shipped. I am running RH 7.2 now and there is still a lot of info in this book is that is applicable.

I don't think the publisher updated it for RH 7+, but I don't know why. I have this book and older "Linux Unleashed" on my small shelf and find both of them are handy references.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good tutorial/reference combo for beginner/intermediate
Review: I use this book as a combo tutorial/reference guide. It's not a total beginner's guide. But if you have some experience with command-line Windows, DOS or any Unix at all, this book should prove adequate in guiding you through the 80-90% of Red Hat-specific Linux you'll want to learn. I like the book's conversational tone, the short tutorials, and some of the Web links that are sprinkled throughout the text. The book was written about the time RH 6.2 came out, so it's missing info on the latest features, but it's still useful to me as I am now running RH 7.2.

Summary: Using Red Hat Linux
Review: This book is great for people just getting started with Red Hat Linux. I have been using Red Hat for about a year and it still taught me some things.
