A Practical Guide to Linux(R) Commands, Editors, and Shell

The Most Useful Linux Tutorial and Reference Ever, with Hundreds of High-Quality Examples Covering Every Linux Distribution!

To be truly productive with Linux, you need to thoroughly master the shells and the command line. Until now, you had to buy two books to gain that mastery: a tutorial on fundamental Linux concepts and techniques, plus a separate reference. Worse, most Linux references offer little more than prettied-up man pages. Now, there’s a far better solution. Renowned Linux expert Mark Sobell has brought together comprehensive, insightful guidance on the tools system administrators, developers, and power users need most, and an outstanding day-to-day reference, both in the same book.

Xen Virtualization: A Practical Handbook

Book description
This concise handbook targeted at Linux administrators and virtualization enthusiasts is ideal for professionals wanting an easy-to-navigate reference when working with Xen and virtualization. It offers bite-sized practical walkthroughs and experiential solutions for many common virtualization tasks using Xen. Using Fedora Core as host operating system, it shows how to add Xen support and create guest domains running different operating systems, then dissects a range of common virtualization tasks. Originally developed in 2003 at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory, Xen is an open-source paravirtualization technology allowing multiple operating systems to run on one physical hardware resource with near native performance. Xen supports several operating systems-Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, and NetBSD. There are now commercial versions of Xen that build on of the open-source version with additional enterprise features; this book explores and uses the open-source version of Xen.

24 Hour Linux shell programming course

In recent years, the UNIX operating system has seen a huge boost in its popularity, especially with the
emergence of Linux. For programmers and users of UNIX, this comes as no surprise: UNIX was designed to
provide an environment that's powerful yet easy to use.
One of the main strengths of UNIX is that it comes with a large collection of standard programs. These
programs perform a wide variety of tasks from listing your files to reading email. Unlike other operating
systems, one of the key features of UNIX is that these programs can be combined to perform complicated
tasks and solve your problems.
One of the most powerful standard programs available in UNIX is the shell. The shell is a program that
provides you with a consistent and easy-to-use environment for executing programs in UNIX. If you have
ever used a UNIX system, you have interacted with the shell.

Linux For Programmers And Users

This book is an outgrowth of the popularity of Linux. Its original version, UNIX for Programmers and Users, written by Graham and updated in subsequent editions by King has been widely used in classroom settings and is popular with professionals new to UNIX or UNIX programming. The increasing popularity of Linux created a demand for a Linux version of such a book, especially in classrooms where Linux is emerging as the platform of choice for computer science students.

Graham wrote the original version in response to the need for course material for university students as well as professional programmers, taking great care to include many different types of users in his target audience. He created a book that was helpful to everyone from a complete beginner to an experienced programmer and allowed instructors to teach a variety of courses. The widespread use of Linux has led to the same need for Linux users and instructors.

When my editors at Prentice-Hall first approached me about creating a Linux version of the book, my flippant response was "Fine, change 'UNIX' to 'Linux' on the cover and ship it!" That response was made in jest, of course, but I also thought it was rooted in some amount of truth. I had used many versions of both UNIX and Linux in the past several years, and they seemed all the same to me (which is a strength of both Linux and UNIX). But this similarity is only skin deep.

While, on the surface, Linux looks just like UNIX (which is the whole idea behind having a standard), the implementation is another story. With the benefit of thousands of volunteer programers unencumbered by marketing departments and product release schedules (i.e., "business issues") but armed with years of advances in operating-systems understanding, Linux is actually a significant improvement of an already good idea. When you look "under the hood," you will find that Linux is a much cleaner implementation because it doesn't suffer from the long evolution and tangled code base that plagues many versions of UNIX today.

And so this Linux-specific book is actually very different from its UNIX counterpart. Even where the substance is similar to UNIX, the details and examples may vary greatly. Substantive differences include a new chapter on installing Linux and largely revised chapters on the internal workings of Linux and system administration.

While we could not possibly cover every detail of every command or application that comes with Linux (without creating a multivolume set!), we try to cover the basics and the most often used utilities to provide a solid foundation upon which you can continue to build your understanding of Linux and the GNU utilities.
