 Excellent Book!! August 22, 2007

I am an Oracle Database Administrator but my knowledge of Linux was very weak. I wanted to get the LPIC certification so that I could expand my knowledge and be able to better communicate with our System Administrators and Network Administrators.
This book covered topics in a way that a person with no experience with Linux could understand (you may need some computer background). The software included was a bonus for me. The book also include a pull out summary sheet of the topics and commands learned (great for studying).
In addition to this book, I do recommend that you set up a computer where you can install and practice what you learn. I also recommend that you but additional self testing software. The combination of the three should guarantee that you pass the LPIC exam and have an honest understanding of what you have learned.

The book focuses on Red Hat, RPM, VI, and the command line to the exclusion of the more recent utilities, changes, and tools (such as DHCP) which are now the mainstay of the Linux Administrator. If it helps cram for the LPIC I wouldn't take it -- not only because it would be unnecessarily difficult, but also because it is useless. It would be like taking a trivia test for Linux instead of learning how to become a competent administrator.
Great book September 7, 2006

This book was quite thorough in its coverage of the material, and the practice questions were superb (although it would have been nice if there were more of them on the CD). I had no trouble setting up the examsim software on my Linux box, so they must have fixed that problem.
The only thing I would complain about is that parts of the chapter on networking were a tad difficult to understand, and I had to find supplemental online resources.

In my opinion, you should be an experienced Linux user before buying this book. It is not worded for people who don't already understand Linux. It may be great for testing, but it's not for trying to learn Linux from scratch.
