The best book on the subject

The best Linux book, period.

Wow, this is excellent

I've read (not just scanned) about 15 Linux reference books of varying depth and direction. Rute is the best. If you can have only one or simply can't live knowing you don't have the definitive guide then you must grab a copy of RUTE. Check out the TOC and Preface for an idea of why I'm so enthused. Briefly, let me just say that topics covered (many and well) are each treated with respect (at least a paragraph of text, not just usage summaries that parrot the man pages) and obviously were learned in the field, not from other books. There are other reasons, but I leave them for you to discover. ENJOY.

Just one word --> PERFECT !!!

Don't waste your time hunting for other books, this is the REAL Bible, and could stand the test of time because there are facts in it which will never change with new versions of Linux Distributions. I recommend you take a look at the online edition .... Happy Computing ;)

Awesome! Nothing else can touch it.

I have stacks of Linux books at home/work, but nothing is as thorough, complete, or accurate. I have a lot of Linux experience, but there are lots of useful scripts, tips, and suggestions in this book. Worth it's weight in Silicon! This book has become my favorite Linux book ever.

This book changed my life

I read this manual from the net like a year ago, It was the first time that I felt confortable to throw away MS systems, I'm so happy to see it again and updated. It teachs you to do thing the hard and the easy way, so you never get lost again.Paul is a great system operator and a great teacher.
