Appendix B helps get you ???plugged in??? to the Linux community.
What You Will Get from This Book
By the time you finish this book, you??™ll have a good basic understanding of many of the major features
in Linux and how you can use them. If you decide then that you want to go a bit deeper into
any Red Hat Linux distribution, Fedora 8 and Enterprise Linux Bible (Wiley, 2007) is a good next step,
with content that includes how to set up many different types of Linux servers.
If you are more technically oriented, Linux Troubleshooting Bible (Wiley, 2004) can be a good way to
learn more advanced skills for securing and troubleshooting Linux systems. Or a Linux Toolbox book
for Fedora, Ubuntu, or SUSE (Wiley, 2007) can provide you with over 1000 Linux commands to
help you become a Linux power user.
If you are looking for some fun, try out some projects with an old PC and free software from Linux
Toys II (Wiley, 2005).
Conventions Used in This Book
Throughout the book, special typography indicates code and commands. Commands and code are
shown in a monospaced font:
This is how code looks.
In the event that an example includes both input and output, the monospaced font is still used,
but input is presented in bold type to distinguish the two. Here??™s an example:
$ ftp ftp.
