Michael Jang's Mastering Red Hat Linux 9 is bar-none, simply the best of the BIG books on RH 9. Beginners through advanced users alike will find it invaluable as a reference.
It's obvious this book was written from scratch -- so many books suffer from over revision with errors and sentences stuck in here and there that don't make sense, but not this book.
Jang is an excellent author -- thank you, Michael, for putting so much effort into your writing. It's clear you have the ... Read More

The book is pretty comprehensive and generous with examples. It serves well as a guided instruction on those who are just starting with linux. This is book is also a good refernce material, however, there are certain topics I was hoping would be included, like OpenLDAP, mySQL, TACACS+ and how these tools integrate with Linux for it to become more rounded.
Overall, Mastering RH9 is still book worth having on our shelves.

Wow! Mastering Red Hat Linux 9 is a huge and very complete guide to Red Hat Linux 9. It's over 900 pages, and includes the "Publisher's Edition" of RH9 on 2 CD's. It is written in a style which should accomodate Linux newcomers and more experienced users alike. There are a LOT of examples, code snippets, and screenshots throughout the book. In fact sometimes the abundance of these tend to make the material a little long to wade through. Experts should have no trouble skipping over the sections ... Read More

I needed a reference to make the transition from Windows to Linux easy and less painful. This book pretty much covered everything from installing Linux to using the command line and the Redhat GUI. The book contained great screen shots to give you a good visual step by step guide to working within the Redhat GUI. Good book that I would recommend to anyone interested in dabbling in linux.

I had great expectations when I first opened the book, expecting a tutorial format leading me from novice to accomplished. I'm pretty disappointed... On the surface, the book appears to head in that direction, but I soon found myself being "exampled" to death with commands that had not been previously introduced or explained. I got the distinct impression that Mr. Jang was trying to show us readers just how knowledgeable he is on the subject. I'll grant him that, but that's not what I needed.
