A Comprehensive Guide to FreeBSD

Author(s) : Mark Mayo
Publication date : 2002

Book excerpts:

This book is an absolute beginners guide to FreeBSD. It is designed for the new user and new system administrator of FreeBSD. It was written to help those who have no real UNIX background easily get started using FreeBSD.

No matter what application, whether as a desktop system, or installed as a Internet server, FreeBSD has the power and the flexibility required to meet even the most demanding situations. FreeBSD, however, requires more of an administrative approach than most over-the-counter operating systems. Yet, because of this approach, FreeBSD requires less administration per functionality than Windows 95 and certainly several other operating systems. Given the correct approach, managing a FreeBSD system is simple and can be quite fun.
