Fedora Bible 2010 Edition
Author(s): Christopher Negus
This is the perfect companion for mastering the latest version of Fedora and RHEL. As a free, open source Linux operating system sponsored by Red Hat, Fedora can either be a stepping stone to Enterprise or used as a viable operating system for those looking for frequent updates. Written by veteran authors of perennial bestsellers, this book serves as an ideal companion for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) users and offers a thorough look at the basics of the new Fedora 12. Step-by-step instructions make the Linux installation simple while clear explanations walk you through best practices for taking advantage of the desktop interface. You'll learn how to use the Linux shell, file system, and text editor. Plus, the authors describe key system administration skills, such as setting up users, automating system tasks, backing up and restoring files, and understanding the latest security issues and threats.
