You’ve experienced the shiny, point-and-click surface of your Linux computer—now dive below and explore its depths with the power of the command line.

The Linux Command Line takes you from your very first terminal keystrokes to writing full programs in Bash, the most popular Linux shell. Along the way you’ll learn the timeless skills handed down by generations of gray-bearded, mouse-shunning gurus: file navigation, environment configuration, command chaining, pattern matching with regular expressions, and more.

In addition to that practical knowledge, author William Shotts reveals the philosophy behind these tools and the rich heritage that your desktop Linux machine has inherited from Unix supercomputers of yore.

As you make your way through the book’s short, easily-digestible chapters, you’ll learn how to:

  • Create and delete files, directories, and symlinks
  • Administer your system, including networking, package installation, and process management
  • Use standard input and output, redirection, and pipelines
  • Edit files with Vi, the world’s most popular text editor
  • Write shell scripts to automate common or boring tasks
  • Slice and dice text files with cut, paste, grep, patch, and sed

Once you overcome your initial “shell shock,” you’ll find that the command line is a natural and expressive way to communicate with your computer. Just don’t be surprised if your mouse starts to gather dust.

                Here you will learn the core skills required to install, configure, and manage SLES 11, that is, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.

                The book provides you with several unique benefits.

                Unique Benefit: SLES Compared To RHEL.

                If you are an existing RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) Admin, then you will enjoy how each chapter compares SLES to RHEL. You will find that many of your existing RHEL skills transfer to SLES.

                Unique Benefit: Command-Line Focus.

                Instead of focusing on YaST, the SLES-specific Admin Tool, each chapter shows the command-line way of doing admin. Experienced Admins know that doing admin from the command-line gives you: (1) a deeper understanding of how admin really works; and (2) gives you Admin skills that work on many GNU/Linux distributions, not just SLES.

                Unique Benefit: Step-By-Step Commands.

                Each chapter shows, step-by-step, how to perform the Admin commands. You will see the exact commands that are executed, including the output of the commands.

                If you are a beginning admin, the many examples provide you a way to rapidly learn new skills.

                If you are an experienced admin, the many examples provide a quick refresh or reminder of skills that you already know.

                    You could think of Setting Up LAMP as four books in one, but it’s actually something much more valuable: a single volume that presents the open-source technologies known collectively as LAMP—Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP—as tightly dovetailed components of today’s most affordable and effective platform for building dynamic web-based applications.

                    Each technology has uses outside of this context, of course, but within it they form something greater than the sum of their parts. This book shows you how to take full advantage of this power, walking you through all the steps required to lay your Linux foundation, install and configure your Apache web server, and then begin using PHP to access content stored in MySQL. Here are a few of the specific topics you’ll find covered inside:

                    • Installing and configuring qmail with support for IMAP, POP3, SMTP, virtual domains, spam filtering, and antivirus
                    • Managing system users and groups
                    • Configuring your network
                    • Creating a custom firewall script using IP tables
                    • Recognizing when a system is in distress
                    • Handling MySQL database replication
                    • Configuring virtual domains
                    • Writing a basic PHP script that integrates with MySQL

                    If you’re new to all of this, you’ll quickly get to where you need to be to start developing and deploying the higher-level pieces of your web application. Even if you have experience with one or all of these technologies, this book—including its quick-start installation appendix—is a resource you’ll want close by whenever you’re setting up or fine-tuning your LAMP system.
