bsd book
Hi! I need help concerning free-bsd literature: Two books seem to be interesting (the complete freebsd, absolute bsd) but although I had a look at both I'm not quite sure which one to buy. What I want is a deep bsd-specific guide covering mostly freebsd related topic such as the kernel, system administration and of course as much networking as possible. I want to avoid paying for a 100-pages introduction to c-shell or bash (with wich I'm now familiar with) or a man-page like overview of the basic unix commands (ls and cd are under control now!).

I personally prefer The Complete FreeBSD written by Greg Lehey because I like his style of writing. It is didactically ok, and a lot of knowledge grown in years of experience with operating systems, networking and hardware is looking through.

The Complete FreeBSD is probably more detailed and Absolute more conversational.You might also want to consider FreeBSD Unleashed by Michael Urban and Brian Tiemann. It takes a fairly practical approach to installing and administering. jerry Thanks a lot Florian ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: bsd book
I haven't read either...I normally find what I need in the handbook or friends. But...if I may make another suggestion, the BSD Hacks book, by Dru Lavigne published by O'Reilly, has some really nice tips in it. I got it a few days ago and have been skimming it...so far it's pretty cool. A colleague said that he's found a few errors, but just like any other reference, check what you read. If you are going to look at getting any O'Reilly book tho, try getting it from Amazon or BookPool...it's silly to pay full price for them. :) Hope this helps! --Brian On Thu, 9 Dec 2004 13:32:33 +0100, Florian Hengstberger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!
