Features: Qualified system administrators know that Linux servers are high-performance systems that route large amounts of information through network connections. Establishing and maintaining Linux servers requires understanding the deep details of the Linux operating system, as well as supporting a wide range of tools and application software at various levels. You will see basic online documentation, but much of the knowledge goes far beyond the basics, and only those experienced system administrators with practical experience know it. This "know-how" is what you gain from Linux Server Hacks. Linux Server Hacks collects 100 industry-leading Hack techniques, providing tips and tools for Linux system administrators to solve practical problems. Each topic can be read in minutes, but it takes hours to give the correct answer. Some Hack techniques are very subtle, and some are even rarely known. All these techniques prove the power and flexibility of Linux systems. You will find many Hack tools to tune the Linux kernel for more efficient system operation, use CVS or RCS to track the version of system files, and use monitoring tools to track system performance. This book also helps you manage large-scale web sites running Apache, MySQL, and other open-source tools, which are often part of Linux systems. This book is written for users who have mastered the basics of Linux. The author truly understands what they are doing, and it is on this foundation of professional expertise that the book Linux Server Hacks was written.
