“This book covers the networking tasks most commonly required of
Linux in a small office or home office (SOHO) environment, such as
using Samba, Netatalk, and NFS/lpd for file and printer sharing
with Windows, Macintosh, and UNIX clients; performing IP
masquerading to let a small network share a single dialup, DSL, or
cable modem Internet connection; and running Linux programs on
remote computers. The book begins with basic information on TCP/IP
and the Internet, including details of how to set up and configure
your Linux computer for basic networking tasks. This book is
marketed for office users, but home users wanting to set up a small
network will find it useful, as well.”

“You can find more details on my web page, including some
additional networking information not available at press time and a
link to Amazon.com’s ordering page for the book. My web page’s URL
