You love it as the world’s most popular desktop Linux distribution, and
now Ubuntu is available at a server near you. Embracing the very same
features desktop users have grown to love, system administrators are
rapidly adopting Ubuntu due to their ability to configure, deploy, and
manage network services more effectively than ever.
Beginning
Ubuntu Server Administration guides you through all of the key
configuration and administration tasks you’ll need to know. Whether
you’re interested in adopting Ubuntu within a Fortune 500 environment
or just want to use Ubuntu to manage your home network, this book is
your go–to guide to using the distribution securely for a wide variety
of network services. Topics include file, print, web, and FTP
management, command–line tips and tricks, automated installation,
configuration and deployment processes, and kernel management.

As a web developer, you’ll already know that JavaScript is a powerful
language, allowing you to add an impressive array of dynamic
functionality to otherwise static web sites. But there is more power
waiting to be unlocked—JavaScript is capable of full object–oriented
capabilities, and by applying OOP principles, best practices, and
design patterns to your code, you can make it more powerful, more
efficient, and easier to work with alone or as part of a team.

The Ubuntu distribution simplifies Linux by providing a sensible
collection of applications, an easy-to-use package manager, and lots of
fine-tuning, which make it possibly the best Linux for desktops and
laptops. Readers of both Linux Journal and TUX Magazine confirmed this
by voting Ubuntu as the best Linux distribution in each publication's
2005 Readers Choice Awards. None of that simplification, however, makes
Ubuntu any less fun if you're a hacker or a power user.
