SUSE Linux: A Complete Guide to Novell’s Community Distribution will get you up to speed quickly and easily on SUSE, one of the most friendly and usable Linux distributions around. From quick and easy installation to excellent hardware detection and support, it’s no wonder SUSE is one of the most highly rated distributions on the planet. According to Novell, SUSE is installed more than 7,000 times every day, an average of one installation every 12 seconds.

This book will take you deep into the essential operating system components by presenting them in easy-to-learn modules. From basic installation and configuration through advanced topics such as administration, security, and virtualization, this book captures the important details of how SUSE works–without the fluff that bogs down other books and web sites. Instead, readers get a concise task-based approach to using SUSE as both a desktop and server operating system.

In this book, you’ll learn how to:

* Install SUSE and perform basic administrative tasks
* Share files with other computers
* Connect to your desktop remotely
* Set up a web server
* Set up networking, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
* Tighten security on your SUSE system
* Monitor for intrusions
* Manage software and upgrades smoothly
* Run multiple instances of SUSE on a single machine with Xen

Whether you use SUSE Linux from Novell, or the free openSUSE distribution, this book has something for every level of user. The modular, lab-based approach not only shows you how–but also explains why–and gives you the answers you need to get up and running with SUSE Linux.

Continuing with the tradition of offering the best and most comprehensive coverage of Red Hat Linux on the market, Red Hat Fedora 5 Unleashed includes new and additional material based on the latest release of Red Hat’s Fedora Core Linux distribution. Incorporating an advanced approach to presenting information about Fedora, the book aims to provide the best and latest information that intermediate to advanced Linux users need to know about installation, configuration, system administration, server operations, and security.

Red Hat Fedora 5 Unleashed thoroughly covers all of Fedora’s software packages, including up-to-date material on new applications, Web development, peripherals, and programming languages. It also includes updated discussion of the architecture of the Linux kernel 2.6, USB, KDE, GNOME, Broadband access issues, routing, gateways, firewalls, disk tuning, GCC, Perl, Python, printing services (CUPS), and security. Red Hat Linux Fedora 5 Unleashed is the most trusted and comprehensive guide to the latest version of Fedora Linux.

The Linux Operating System continues to grow in popularity and acceptance world-wide and the Linux Professional Institute (LPI) has designed a certification program to certify the competency of system administration using the Linux operating system and its associated tools.This training maps to the LPIC-1 exams 101 and 102 and teaches you how to work at the Linux command line, perform simple maintenance, support users, and carry out backup, restore, shutdown and reboot commands. You’ll also gain the skills to install and configure a workstation and connect it to a LAN, or a stand-alone PC via modem to the Internet.Instructor Perry Fizzano covers all the topics in a series of easy to comprehend videos that are great for the beginner and expert alike. He even shares his own Linux experiences along the way to give you a better understanding of what using Linux is all about.There are 19 videos providing more than 9 hours of instruction. A basic understanding of computers and networking is suggested prior to viewing this training.

Linux Phrasebook is sure to become the pocket guide that you keep within reach at all times. This concise, handy reference can be used “in the street,” just like a language phrasebook. Skipping the usual tutorial on Linux, the Linux Phrasebook goes straight to practical Linux uses, providing immediate applicable solutions for day-to-day tasks. It includes code phrases that allow Linux users to employ the command line to complete onerous and repetitive tasks, as well as flexible code and commands can be customized to meet the needs of any Linux user. The concise information combined with random accessibility makes the Linux Phrasebook a robust, yet agile, reference guide that no Linux user should be without.

With User Mode Linux, you can create virtual Linux machines within a Linux computer, and use them to safely test and debug applications, network services, even kernels. You can try out new distributions, experiment with buggy software, even test security. Now, for the first time, the creator and maintainer of User Mode Linux shows how to put it to work, hands-on. Jeff Dike covers everything from getting started through running enterprise-class User Mode Linux servers. You`ll find authoritative advice on bootup, compilation, administration, even specialized configurations.

The Ubuntu distribution simplifies Linux by providing a sensible collection of applications, an easy-to-use package manager, and lots of fine-tuning, which make it possibly the best Linux for desktops and laptops. Readers of both Linux Journal and TUX Magazine confirmed this by voting Ubuntu as the best Linux distribution in each publication’s 2005 Readers Choice Awards. None of that simplification, however, makes Ubuntu any less fun if you’re a hacker or a power user.

Like all books in the “Hacks” series, Ubuntu Hacks includes 100 quick tips and tricks for all users of all technical levels. Beginners will appreciate the installation advice and tips on getting the most out of the free applications packaged with Ubuntu, while intermediate and advanced readers will learn the ins-and-outs of power management, wireless roaming, 3D video acceleration, server configuration, and much more.

The Linux operating system continues to gain market share based largely on its reputation as being the most secure operating system available. The challenge faced by system administrators installing Linux is that it is secure only if installed and configured properly, constantly and meticulously updated, and carefully integrated with a wide variety of Open Source security tools. The fact that Linux source code is readily available to every hacker means that system administrators must continually learn security and anti-hacker techniques.Hack Proofing Linux will provide system administrators with all of the techniques necessary to properly configure and maintain Linux systems and counter malicious attacks.

*Linux operating systems and Open Source security tools are incredibly powerful, complex, and notoriously under-documented - this book addresses a real need
*CD-Rom contains Red Hat/Mandrake Linux RPMs as well as tarballs for other Linux distributions and the BSD community
*Uses forensics-based analysis to give the reader an insight to the mind of a hacker
