aka Teach Yourself Apache In 5 Minutes

I got this book to learn on web-servers and Apache was chosen because it's free. After 5 minutes of reading the book and I got Apache 1.3.12 up-n-running and had my first web-site on display. I don't know how this book is on the advanced topics, but it's excellent for all that want to setup a web-server.

Good for reading if you are planning your first web server.

This book has more to do with setting up a first web server for your unique needs with Apache Web Server rather than an in-depth technical book about Apache. Provides many good strategies and pointers for corporations and small business setting up their first web servers, large and small ISPs. Good explanation on configuring firewalls and creating homepage web sites.A full chapter on Using Apache on Windows NT and how to program the Apache Server. Some inaccurate information about the relationship between OpenSSL and SSLeay libraries.All in all, this book is good for beginners wanting to set up web servers using Apache web server as it provides various configurations and strategies but not much for the seasoned Apache web administrator or developers as it lacks new technical information about Apache that other Apache books have not already addressed although this is one of the latest books on Apache.
