How Linux Works
How Linux Works delves into the insides of the Linux system for systems administrators, whether they maintain an extensive network in the office or one Linux box at home. Rather than give copy-and-paste instructions for how to deal with every single system issue that may arise, How Linux Works actually shows how the Linux system functions so that users can come up with their own solutions. With a mixture of background theory and real- world examples, this book shows both "how" to administer Linux, and "why" each particular technique works, so that readers will know how to make Linux work for them.
