Title: Solaris 9 Administration: A Beginner's Guide by Paul A., Dr Watters ISBN: 0-07-222317-0 Publisher: Osborne/McGraw-Hill Pub. Date: 29 July, 2002 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $39.99 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.5 (4 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Outstanding! More like a text book than a trade book!
Comment: I am a college student studying operating systems. This book is the best UNIX book I have come across (and I have borrowed just about all of them from our school library). The chapters are highly structured with succinct, compact and highly informative discussions of *how* and *why* you do certain things as a sysadmin. It's outstanding, really.
Rating: 5
Summary: Best place to start
Comment: I have purchased multiple Solaris books to prepare for my job, and I would say that this is the best place to start. It is definitely for a beginner; but coming from a background where my only role was as a non-administrative user of UNIX systems, this is an excellent book to learn the inner-workings of UNIX and specifically, Solaris 9. It is well organized; and it is possible to read the book from cover to cover, building on knowledge from previous chapters.

Summary: Great for a beginner (but not "Complete")
Comment: This book covers all the relevant topics for a beginning Solaris SA, clearly and well organized (vs. other P.Waters books).
For the more advanced topics, his Sol 9 Complete book looks good.
Unfortunately, in this job market, I don't see much need for a "beginner Unix SA", because Sr. SA's (with lots of other exp.) are already a "dime a dozen".
