This book was written to provide a single reference for network administration in a Linux environment. Beginners and experienced users alike should find the information they need to cover nearly all important administration activities required to manage a Linux network configuration. The possible range of topics to cover is nearly limitless, so of course it has been impossible to include everything there is to say on all subjects. We've tried to cover the most important and common ones. We've found that beginners to Linux networking, even those with no prior exposure to Unix-like operating systems, have found this book good enough to help them successfully get their Linux network configurations up and running and get them ready to learn more.

There are many books and other sources of information from which you can learn any of the topics covered in this book (with the possible exception of some of the truly Linux-specific features, such as the new Linux firewall interface, which is not well documented elsewhere) in greater depth. We've provided a bibliography for you to use when you are ready to explore more.

This book is organized into parts — groups of techniques about a common subject that will save you time and help you get your system running better. Each technique is written to be independent of the others, so you only need to implement those techniques that are important to you and your users. From time to time, we may send you to another technique to implement a feature that we’ll be using in our current technique — we just don’t want to waste valuable space repeating ourselves. Each of the parts is about a different facet of a Linux system so you can scan the part title easily, looking for problem solving techniques that will help you, quick.

And these books get to the point in a hurry, with step by-step instructions to pace you through the tasks you need to do, without any of the fluff you don’t want. We’ve identified more than 60 techniques that Linux users need to know to make the most of their time. In addition, each technique includes figures that make following along a breeze. Decide for yourself how to use this book: Read it cover to cover if you like, or skip right to the technique that interests you the most.

 Why should you learn about Linux? It’s a fast-growing operating system, and it is inexpensive and flexible. Linux is also a major player in the small and mid-sized server field, and it’s an increasingly viable platform for workstation and desktop use, as well. By understanding Linux, you’ll increase your standing in the job market. Even if you already know Windows or MacOS and your employer uses these systems exclusively, understanding Linux will give you an edge when you are looking for a new job or if you are looking for promotion. For instance, this knowledge will allow you to make an informed decision about if and when you should deploy Linux.
The Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) has developed its Linux+ exam as an introductory certification for people who want to enter careers involving Linux. The exam is meant to certify that an individual has the skills necessary to install, operate, and troubleshoot a Linux system, and is familiar with Linux-specific concepts and basic hardware.
The purpose of this book is to help you pass the Linux+ exam. Because this exam covers basic Linux installation, use, configuration, administration, and hardware interactions, those are the topics that are emphasized in this book. You’ll learn enough to get a Linux system up and running and how to configure it for many common tasks. Even after you’ve taken and passed the Linux+ exam, this book should remain a useful reference.
