Fedora 5 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Bible (Bible)by Christopher Negus

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Slightly above average resource, July 3, 2006 Reviewer:S. Milliken (Nashville, TN) - This book has quite a bit of good information, but if I see yet another Linux book devote an entire chapter or more to using Mozilla Firefox, I think I'll scream. Yet it continues to happen. Sure, the applications are part of the operating system, but those of us looking for a good OS resource want more meat and less potatoes, so to speak. This book does take you through the steps to setting up most everything that the beginner to intermediate user would want to set up - on their workstation. Most of the content focuses on using the GUI, but at times also gives the command line interface equivalent. If you're looking for a resource to help you find the RHEL/FC equivalent of what you've been doing in another distro, or another UNIX variant, it's not a bad choice.
