Review:
The introduction of Linux System Security acknowledges that there's no magic bullet as far as security is concerned. Security-minded system administration is a process of constant revision. It promises, though, that "[i]f you follow the procedures outlined in this book, you will certainly reduce your level of vulnerability." The book delivers on that promise in spades. Using Red Hat Linux as the demonstration environment, the authors explain how to use a suite of publicly available tools to analyze, protect, and monitor your machines and networks. They approach the subject from a practical standpoint, emphasizing software and its use while referring the reader (using copious bibliographic notes) to more specialized works for detailed inform...

Review:
Linux machines serve scores of purposes on networks, but their very integration with networked environments means they're constantly exposed to attack. Maximum Linux Security: A Hacker's Guide to Protecting Your Linux Server and Network provides a comprehensive picture of Linux's strengths and weaknesses when it comes to protecting your systems from bad guys. The author offers explicit advice (e.g., replace sendmail with Qmail) and general recommendations (e.g., be on the lookout for unused services and disable them). In case you're wondering which Anonymous this is, he's the same guy who wrote the very highly regarded Maximum Security. In Maximum Linux Security, readers become familiar with scores of offensive and defensive weapons, includ... Rest of this review on the detail page

Review:
Adobe GoLive 4.0 Classroom in a Book, like the other books in the CIB series, is the ideal companion to the software's manuals.

Review:
While ASP in a Nutshell is not meant to be a full-fledged tutorial of Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP) technology, it offers a great way for experienced Web coders to ramp up on ASP. After an introduction to ASP, author A. Keyton Weissinger rapidly reviews the progression of content from static form to the Internet, covering CGI, ISAPI, and ASP 2.0. The author clearly explains how ASP works and how server-side components can work with ASP code to further extend server-side functionality. The core of the book is the object reference for ASP coding. Six chapters document all the key programmable ASP objects and each includes an area on Comments/Troubleshooting, Properties Reference, Methods Reference, and Events Reference and offers furthe...
