Synopsis

This Linux command reference will be published in the new Open Source series. Designed for power users, developers, and sys admins, it will provide a user-friendly guide to the Linux operating system. All commands will be listed alphabetically by functional area, so all file structure commands will be grouped, all networking commands grouped, etc. This is ideal for beginners who can locate commands based on the tasks they are trying to accomplish. In addition, a roadmap which lists all commands by alpha at the front of the book is ideal for more advanced users who know the command name and simply need to know a page number. Another feature will be a guide to interpreting Linux's confusing command output, what you see after you execute an initial command.

Book Overview:

This handy 6 x9 Linux desk reference packs information about every command Linux users will need -- organized for maximum value and convenience! Unlike some Linux references, Linux Desk Reference is organized by function, so new Linux users can find what they're looking for fast -- and a great roadmap-style alphabetical reference gets experts the information they need equally quickly! Linux Desk Reference covers every key aspect of running and administering Linux, including: files, I/O, scripting, pattern matching, paths, printers and print queues, document formatting, email, shells, X-Windows, text editors, and much more. Coverage also includes: sessions, users and groups, the Linux filesystem, processes, devices, disks, hosts, performance monitoring, scheduling, archiving/compression, networking, startup/shutdown, modules, daemons, logging, and the kernel. Unique to Linux books on the market, this book provides practical examples for every command -- plus hundreds of invaluable tips and warnings! For all Linux users who need a quality, complete Linux reference -- including beginners, power users, developers, and sysadmins.
