From the Publisher
Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Fedora Core 4: The Complete Reference provides a comprehensive examination of all aspects of Fedora Core 4 Linux, including recent critical changes in administration such as device management, kernel configuration, and IPv6 support. In terms of coverage, The Complete Reference is currently the only true Fedora Core 4 book, providing coverage of key Fedora Core 4 and even Fedora Core 3 developments. Other books in this class either take a different more introductory approach, or simply fail to cover key Fedora Core 4 developments. Only in this book will you find in depth discussion of key administration changes such as automatic device generation with udev, the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL), and kernel header management. It still remains the only text in its class that covers IPv6 topics ranging from network address auto-configuration to DNS records. In addition, there is special focus on security tools, providing dedicated chapters on SELinux, IPsec, and GPG encryption. The book remains the only text in its class to discuss Kerberos, as well as provide detailed examination of RAID and LVM file systems. The Complete Reference also covers the latest inclusions like the Global File System, detailing the various packages you need to implement the system, as well as upcoming solutions like using the latest securitylevel development version to enable Windows share browsing on Gnome. Though comprehensive in its handling of administration topics, The Complete Reference deals just as thoroughly with user topics, with beginning chapters providing introductory material, along with in depth chapters on Gnome, KDE, and shell usage and configuration. Office, Database, Multimedia, and Internet applications like Firefox, including Windows access and video support, are also covered. Dedicated chapters examine Internet services like Web servers, proxies, DNS, and FTP. Both the publisher and author have made a special effort to provide the most up-to-date and comprehensive information on Fedora Core 4 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, keeping readers informed of all the latest developments.
