• Just the right size, and level of detail
  I haven't finished it yet, but I have read much of it, and from someone who dislikes the typical computer "tomes" of the 600+ page variety, this <300 book seems very well written, and does still contain a very good amount of detail. Much of the topics were familiar, as I was already using other flavors of linux, but there are enough differences to make this a very worthwhile read for me.

• not wat i expected....
  this book is a bit misleading... it said that it was for ubuntu server, wich for the most part it is... i would like to warn ones who are looking for a book on webserving... this book has like three or so pages on this subject and these are breif and general. other sections are very good, and in decent detail... if you would like a book on webserving look for one on apache. jus my opinion.

• Great Introduction to Ubuntu Administration
  Ubuntu has become one of the fastest growing and arguably most friendly Linux distributions over the last few years. This book is designed to help someone who has no knowledge of Linux become a basic system administrator. While it will not make them an expert among people who know Linux well it will make them sufficiently knowledgeable to do most of the common administrative functions.
  The author starts with installing Ubuntu server and moves into information that most Ubuntu users do not understand... more info

• Nice book and really helpful for novices
  The book is clear and concise. It explores several important topics in Ubuntu (linux) server administration from the novice point of view. Although several features are common among several linux distros, the book tries to use the ubuntu way when it is appropriated. Just pay attention: a new edition is coming soon (oct/2008). I did not like the paper used, it is rough and thick, like several others paperback books.
