SysAdmin: Books: A User’s Report (June 2000)

“The criteria for reviewing books constantly changes. Unlike the
classic works of fiction or non-fiction, technical books exist to
provide information for their readers. A substantive part of that
information has a short time span before it becomes outdated.
Depending on an individual’s specific interests, some books will
always be intriguing. Some of the recent books that I’ve found
valuable, intriguing, or entertaining include: Remote Access
24seven by Paul E. Robichaux (Sybex Network Press); Evil Geniuses
in a Nutshell, A User Friendly Guide to World Domination by Illiad
(O’Reilly & Associates, Inc.); The Concise Guide to Xfree86 for
Linux by Aron Hsiao (Que Books); Linux Programmer’s Reference,
Second Edition by Richard Petersen (Osborne McGraw-Hill); Solaris
Security by Peter H. Gregory, Foreword by Steven M. Bellovin (Sun
Microsystems Press, Prentice Hall).“
