Linux® Quick Fix Notebook

Linux® Quick Fix Notebook

Most Linux “encyclopedias” are split in three sections: an introductory section
covering topics such as CD-based Linux installation, GUI interfaces, and text
editors; an intermediate section covering Microsoft Office clone productivity
suites; and an advanced section covering the topics most nondesktop-support IT
professionals use on a day-to-day basis. Unfortunately the “advanced sections”
in these guides cover the underlying theory reasonably well, but often are short
on space to adequately cover detailed configuration instructions. IT professionals
frequently have to purchase additional specialist books on each topic.
Linux® Quick Fix Notebook takes these “advanced sections” and expands
them sufficiently to provide a practical tutorial guide on how to do basic configuration
of many popular Linux back-office applications with command-bycommand
instructions.
To avoid confusion between the many flavors of Linux, each with its own
GUI interface, this guide exclusively uses the command line to illustrate the
tasks needed to be done. It provides all the expected screen output when configuring
the most commonly used Linux applications to help assure readers that
they are doing the right thing. The notebook also includes many of the most commonly
encountered errors with explanations of their causes and how to fix them.
