I can't recommend this book. There's a thin Sam's guide to Debian which was decent. There was also an older...Slink, perhaps?...Debian-project produced book about two years ago. Website, and Debian-Policy, are probably the best sources of ancillary information, after a solid Unix reference. My recommendations: - Nemeth, et al, _UNIX Administration Handbook_, Prentice Hall. - Frisch, _Essential System Administration_, O'Reilly. - Siever, et al, _Linux in a Nutshell_, O'Reilly. - Matt Welsh, _Running Linux_, O'Reilly. - Peek, et all, _UNIX Power Tools_, O'Reilly. -- Karsten M.
