the preferred server for many enterprises. But it can be even trickier

to use than either Unix or Linux, and harder still to master.

revised and rewritten second edition of his landmark work to be his best

work ever; a true product of his love for FreeBSD and the support of the

FreeBSD community. Absolute FreeBSD, 2nd Edition covers installation,

networking, security, network services, system performance, kernel

tweaking, filesystems, SMP, upgrading, crash debugging, and much more,

including coverage of how to:

- Use advanced security features like packet filtering, virtual

machines, and host-based intrusion detection

- Build custom live FreeBSD CDs and bootable flash

- Manage network services and filesystems

- Use DNS and set up email, IMAP, web, and FTP services for both

servers and clients

- Monitor your system with performance-testing and troubleshooting

tools

- Run diskless systems

- Manage schedulers, remap shared libraries, and optimize your system

for your hardware and your workload

- Build custom network appliances with embedded FreeBSD

- Implement redundant disks, even without special hardware

- Integrate FreeBSD-specific SNMP into your network management system.
