Hello,
Longtime windoze user (because work, gaming, programming, lazybess, …) I’m switching over to Linux Mint (a slow long process that might finally end up with just a little win-box for the printer and a soft or two) on all my everyday pc:s so I’m trying to get more into the nitty gritty stuff here, and I have long time heard that the:
UNIX and Linux System Administration Handbook (4th Edition)
Is like the Linux Bible…
Is it still so? Is it still worth the money or are there better books out there?
Cheers!
Yeah, exactly this. Your best bet is to sign up to one of the Linux communities here and read through some of the posts.
The big difference is that a book is structured to teach you bit by bit. One of the issues of learning a new subject is that you don’t know what you don’t know. Something structured like a book solves this.
That being said, a six year old book is ancient when talking about computer related stuff…
