Description
Fedora - Red Hat's community version of its Linux distribution - remains one of the most popular distributions for technology enthusiasts who want access to leading-edge Linux features. Meanwhile, Red Hat Enterprise Linux - based on Fedora - is the industry standard for high-capacity, ultra-reliable servers. Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux Unleashed, 2009 Edition, provides comprehensive, hands-on, practical information and how-tos for both operating systems. This edition comes with a free upgrade. When you register your book you will receive a free edition of Fedora 10 when it is released later in the year. This edition contains extensive new coverage of advanced desktop and enterprise administration topics. It also contains updated discussions of: Linux kernel architecture, USB, KDE, GNOME, broadband access, routing, gateways, firewalls, disk tuning, GCC, Perl, Python, CUPS, wireless support, international support, Java, Eclipse, and security.
