The first edition of The Practice of System and Network Administration introduced a generation of system and network administrators to a modern IT methodology. Whether you use Linux, Unix, or Windows, this newly revised edition describes the essential practices previously handed down only from mentor to protégé. This wonderfully lucid, often funny cornucopia of information introduces beginners to advanced frameworks valuable for their entire career, yet is structured to help even the most advanced experts through difficult projects.

The book's four major sections build your knowledge with the foundational elements of system administration. These sections guide you through better techniques for upgrades and change management, catalog best practices for IT services, and explore various management topics. Chapters are divided into The Basics and The Icing. When you get the Basics right it makes every other aspect of the job easier--such as automating the right things first. The Icing sections contain all the powerful things that can be done on top of the basics to wow customers and managers.

  • Awesome, thank you i am on my way of becoming a Network Administrator, this video is indeed helping me out much! /love

  • @SIG551P Asshole, if you think system and network administration isn't a real job, then you should just shut the fuck up. It is one of the most stressful and spontaneous jobs out there, and takes a large amount of intelligence and technical skill. You have to deal with the real idiots who don't know anything about computers, as well as defend against internal and external threats. In some cases, you can lose your job if you make a single mistake. Never call a respected profession worthless.

  • @SIG551P Have you checked out IT salaries recently? Many of them reach into the 100K range! And if you're view of this position is a server "mechanic," then you are a complete tool. I'm guessing you feel really smart whenever you find out that you're computer won't turn on because it's not plugged in!

  • @nova613 Yeah, enjoy being a mechanic for servers basically. Just take up a job in fast food, it pays better.

  • Wash-outs and bottom-of-the-barrel losers end up doing this crap. Get a real job.
