To help you get to the bottom of real-life problems quickly, “Linux System Administration” is organized around three common administration scenarios: Linux as a hub for a home or small office, Linux as LAMP system (Linux-Apache web server-MySQL database- PHP/Perl/Python scripting languages), and remote administration of Linux machines.

You will be able to move beyond the basics of individual Linux tools in order to competently support users and maintain systems in actual work environments. “Linux System Administration” provides a solid background for Linux desktop users who want to move beyond the basics of Linux, and for experienced system administrators who are looking to gain more advanced skills.

Running Linux 4th Edition



Book Details
Authors: Matt Welsh, Lar Kaufman, Matthias Kalle Dalheimer, Andy Oram (Editor)
ISBN: 156592469X
ISBN-13: 9781565924697
Format: Paperback, 730pp
Publisher: O’Reilly Media, Incorporated

Book Description
Once a little-known productivity boost for personal computers, Linux is now becoming a central part of computing environments everywhere. This operating system now serves as corporate hubs, web servers, academic research platforms, and program development systems. All along it’s also managed to keep its original role as an enjoyable environment for personal computing, learning system administration and programming skills, and all-around hacking.

This book, now in its third edition, has been widely recognized for years in the Linux community as the getting-started book people need. It goes into depth about configuration issues that often trip up users but are glossed over by other books.

A complete, UNIX-compatible operating system developed by volunteers on the Internet, Linux is distributed freely in electronic form and at a low cost from many vendors. Developed first on the PC, it has been ported to many other architectures and can now support such heavy-duty features as multiprocessing, RAID, and clustering.

Software packages on Linux include the Samba file server and Apache Web server; the X Window System (X11R6); TCP/IP networking (including PPP, SSH, and NFS support); popular software tools such as Emacs and TeX; a complete software development environment including C, C++, Java, Perl, Tcl/Tk, and Python; libraries, debuggers, multimedia support, scientific and database applications, and much more. Commercial applications that run on Linux range from end-user tools like word processors and spreadsheets to mission-critical software like the Oracle, Sybase, Informix, and IBM DB/2 database management systems.

Running Linux explains everything you need to understand, install, and start using the Linux operating system. This includes a comprehensive installation tutorial, complete information on system maintenance, tools for document development and programming, and guidelines for network, file, printer, and Web site administration.

New topics in the third edition include:

* KDE, a desktop that brings the friendliness and ease-of-use of Windows or the Macintosh to Linux
* Samba, which turns Linux into a office hub that serves files and printers to Microsoft systems
* PPP, the most popular software for logging into remote systems over phone lines
* Revised instructions for installation and configuration, particularly covering the Red Hat and SuSE distributions

Adding Ajax (2007)




Book Details
Author: Shelley Powers
Paperback: 399 pages
Publisher: O’Reilly Media, Inc. (June 20, 2007)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0596529368
ISBN-13: 978-0596529369

Book Description
Ajax can bring many advantages to an existing web application without forcing you to redo the whole thing. This book explains how you can add Ajax to enhance, rather than replace, the way your application works. For instance, if you have a traditional web application based on submitting a form to update a table, you can enhance it by adding the capability to update the table with changes to the form fields, without actually having to submit the form. That’s just one example.

Adding Ajax is for those of you more interested in extending existing applications than in creating Rich Internet Applications (RIA). You already know the “business-side” of applications-web forms, server-side driven pages, and static content-and now you want to make your web pages livelier, more fun, and much more interactive.

Web Design in a Nutshell: A Desktop Quick Reference




Book Details
Authors: Jennifer Niederst Robbins, Jennifer Niederst Robbins
Paperback: 704 pages
Publisher: O’reilly; 3 edition (March 7, 2006)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 1600330126
ISBN-13: 978-1600330124

Book Description
Are you still designing web sites like it’s 1999? If so, you’re in for a surprise. Since the last edition of this book appeared five years ago, there has been a major climate change with regard to web standards. Designers are no longer using (X)HTML as a design tool, but as a means of defining the meaning and structure of content. Cascading Style Sheets are no longer just something interesting to tinker with, but rather a reliable method for handling all matters of presentation, from fonts and colors to the layout of the entire page. In fact, following the standards is now a mandate of professional web design.

Our popular reference, Web Design in a Nutshell, is one of the first books to capture this new web landscape with an edition that’s been completely rewritten and expanded to reflect the state of the art. In addition to being an authoritative reference for (X)HTML and Cascading Style Sheets, this book also provides an overview of the unique requirements of designing for the Web and gets to the nitty-gritty of JavaScript and DOM Scripting, web graphics optimization, and multimedia production. It is an indispensable tool for web designers and developers of all levels.
