Résumé

Can you run your business on Linux? Yes you can - this book shows you how.

Linux, along with its open source principles, has been making a great impact
on the IT world because of its robustness, flexibility, and price tag. Assuming
no knowledge of UNIX, this book covers all of the key Linux Internet and
intranet applications, enabling the reader to replace any of their NT servers
with Linux. It shows you how to start instantly reducing money spent on software
licenses, improving stability, and providing a more flexible platform for
programmers to work with.

Who is this book for?

This book is for IT professionals, with some experience of managing NT
services, or non-Linux UNIX machines. If you would like a more stable and
flexible operating system, and you're prepared to put some effort into learning
something new, then this book can help you. You'll need to have access to a
Linux system - this is not an installation manual, although it does provide a
tutorial on the UNIX command line for the uninitiated.

What does this book cover?

Setting up essential Internet and intranet services
Firewalls and proxies
Replacing NT file and print services with Samba
Creating web and FTP servers
Using the free databases MySQL and PostgreSQL
Setting up an LDAP server
Cryptography - including VPNs and SSL
