Book Description:

Burgess approaches both network and system administration from the perspective of principles and ideas which do not change on a day-to-day basis.

                                             A great deal of attention is paid to the heuristics of system and network administration; technical and sociological issues are taken into account equally and are presented thoughtfully with an eye to teaching not what to do as a system or network administrator, but how to think about problems that arise in practice. As a result, the author keeps the reader looking forward to what comes next and how to implement what he or she has learned.
