Nice to have on a desk February 11, 2008
This is a good book to have as an administrator but some commands such as redhat-config-* is outdated. Otherwise the book has some useful information one might need to quickly.
Great for those 'senior moments' March 25, 2006
This is my carry-around, cheat-sheet, security-blanket, reminder book... when I get busy with customers crying about load averages, reports to acknowledge, system emails to pour through (I know, there are scripts for that!..), and troubleshooting to do, sometimes I just cannot get my brain to sort my "all things Linux" database to find what I need (was it a -R or -r with chown??) Maybe it's an age thing, or a vitamin thing, but this little book is my start-with book. It's easy to flip thru and find that little crumb you are looking for to get going again. And by all means, it is not a Linux in a Nutshell, or other more comprehensive reference book, but certainly for quickie RH-specific double-checks, it's perfect.
Concise, easy to use reference December 17, 2003

This is not my only Linux reference, but it's the one I'm finding it easy to use quickly when all I need is some specific piece of information to get something done.Unlike many of the larger 'bible'-type books, this one is small and easy to use and keep handy. I have some of the larger books as well, but I think this one is more useful if I need to look something up quick or if I need to carry a book with me back to the computer lab. In short -- this is a great, concise Red Hat reference. I'd recommend it as a compliment to having some of the larger, more in-depth books.
