Hello,

Longtime windoze user (because work, gaming, programming, lazybess, ...) I'm switching over to Linux Mint (a slow long process that might finally end up with just a little win-box for the printer and a soft or two) on all my everyday pc:s so I'm trying to get more into the nitty gritty stuff here, and I have long time heard that the:

UNIX and Linux System Administration Handbook (4th Edition)

Is like the Linux Bible...

Is it still so? Is it still worth the money or are there better books out there?

Cheers!

OP Please make the title of this question end with a "?" per rule 2.

I see you are working, but these threads are like 7-8 days old. IMO it's a bit useless.

[-] Asudox@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

yeah but it doesn't hurt, does it?

[-] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 2 points 11 months ago

I don't know really, I mean the (my) posts went up, worked out and somehow went to sleep forever.

You're IMO doing the stack overflow approach, so yeah that's maybe the thing for keeping high value content. I'd not remove posts that easily just yet as there isn't not that much quality content but that's just me.

Cool that you're doing it putting in the time, we're all in this together!

Cheers
