Review:
As Linux gains an ever larger foothold in organizational computing, matters of integrating it into networks and other systems become more pressing. The authors of Professional Linux Deployment have combined forces to explain the technologies that exist to ease the process of making Linux machines cooperate with computers running Unix variants or Windows NT. There's plenty of Samba coverage here, of course, since that service is the best way to catch Server Message Block (SMB) calls from Windows NT, but this book goes far beyond Samba. Much of it has to do with documenting Linux solutions that parallel those for Microsoft operating systems. Coverage of MySQL, for instance, includes details on installing the software, setting up databases, an... Rest of this review on the detail page

Review:
Wrox specializes in books written by programmers, for programmers. Professional Java Server Programming, a volume on developing Java-based Web applications, is no different. All the 12 authors are developers and consultants--including some who've been part of Sun's own Java team. The Web is becoming more and more a way of delivering applications rather than just static Web pages. Java is becoming more and more popular as a tool for building Web applications, thanks to Java servlets and Java Server Pages. Professional Java Server Programming is a big book full of code samples and real-world experience. Starting with a grounding in Web application development and technologies, the book introduces the various concepts of using Java to deliver ... Rest of this review on the detail page

Review:
TCP/IP packet handling may seem crystal clear when you first hear about it, but after you've configured your Ethernet card's netmask address, the details become rather vague. You might find yourself asking--if you were a Danish prince--"What is a packet, if its chief good and market of its time be but to route and wrap?" If routing and wrapping were all packets did, we would all enjoy our ignorance blissfully. But packets--like men, as the prince learned--can be hollow carriers of ill will, and excluding the bad ones requires us to understand what they really truly are. At last. Just how interesting packets turn out to be is revealed in Linux Firewalls, Robert L. Zeigler's sober, agile, and subtle text. Narrowing consideration to threats fa...

Review:
Building Linux and OpenBSD Firewalls tackles considerably more than its title implies. For one thing, it's an introductory Internet security text that explains some of the methods attackers employ and how security strategies (including firewalls) can help thwart them. Some of this coverage is very basic indeed ("What's an IP address?" and "What's a good Password" are two elementary sidebars), but that's in keeping with this series, which is intended for managers and others somewhat removed from detail work as well as for technicians. Still, the differences between OpenBSD and Linux boil down to a couple of key features, and you'll find yourself halfway through this book before you get to any how-to material on configuring a firewall. The co... Rest of this review on the detail page
