Inconsistincies in user reviews

Many of the negative reviews complain that this book did not tell them how to use Linux. What they failed to notice is that the title of the book is "Linux NETWORK ADMINISTRATORS Guide". Networking is about TCP/IP, FTP, etc. If you want a Linux "how to" book, don't get this book.

Oh my god!

Just have to say that this book is a must to have if you are into networking and linux or considering to get into it.Buy it. Read it. Enjoy it.[...]

What a great book

re: needs updating

Its actually being rewritten at the moment I believe. But the rewrite has been going on for at least a year that i know of so far. Guess should be out in the not too distant future

Useful

This book is denseley packed with essential information. Although it needs to be updated, I give it a high rating because as far I know, there's no other book that focuses on this subject. There are sections that I'll never use, such as "UUCP", but the overall authoritativeness of the volume leads me to believe that those sections are critical to other people in different situations!
