Résumé
Author John Lathrop concentrates on practical solutions and
real-life examples to the problem of ever more expensive
software. He eschews Linux evangelism, presenting instead
real solutions that reduce software purchases, enhance
stability, and lower the costs of maintenance and hardware
upgrades. Using a simple, step-by-step approach, Lathrop
shows how Linux can be integrated in a mixed, Linux/Windows
environment, both saving money and avoiding workplace
disruption. Linux has now matured to the point where, with
modest instruction and using familiar GUI tools, a Windows
user or administrator can install, set up, and use Linux
effectively in a business, workgroup, school or government
office.
Linux in Small Business: A Practical User's Guide covers more material than most Linux books-the scenario-based LAN section alone, covers DHCP, DNS, NAT, Samba, NFS, Sendmail, Apache, and PostgreSQL. It covers this material using a practical, how-to method, showing the user how to set these programs and protocols up in a realistic, hands-on way, and showing by example how they can be made useful in the office or workgroup.
