The Definitive Guide to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is a
comprehensive guide to Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server (SLES), one of the most powerful Linux-based
server solutions available today. Sander van Vugt-noted
author, consultant, and trainer-guides you through the
most important aspects of SLES, beginning with an in-
depth overview of installation and configuration tasks.
In the opening chapters, you will learn how to configure
network capabilities, efficiently manage software
updates, and manage the file system. Later chapters are
devoted to configuration and deployment of key network
services including the MySQL database, CUPS, Samba,
PostFix, FTP, DNS, proxy servers, and more. Along the
way, van Vugt illustrates important administration
concepts such as instituting strict file system security
and server automation. Since increasing demands are
placed on these services, you'll learn how to cluster
servers together to lessen downtime and increase
performance.
