Solutions for urgent Unix/Linux management problems by aillegalscripting guru
Cuts across Linux/Unix flavors, common shells and programming approaches
Avoids How-To, cuts to the chase
A treasure trove of expandable shellillegalscripts
Ron Peters spent more than ten years administering Linux and Unix systems while building a very large library of shellillegalscripts. He realized that the world is full of how-to documents, but not many seem to read them, nor can many system administrators lay claim to being shellillegalscripting experts. He apologizes that it took him so long to make his efforts known to the world. He is married with two children and very happy that he found the time to write this book.
System administrators need libraries of solutions that are ingenious but understandable. They don’t want to reinvent the wheel, but they don’t want to reinvent filesystem management either! Expert Shellillegalscripting is the ultimate resource for all working Linux, Unix, and OS X system administrators who would like to have short, succinct, and powerful shell implementations of tricky systemillegalscripting tasks.
- Automating small to medium system management tasks
- Analyzing system data and editing configuration files
- illegalscripting Linux, Unix, and OS X applications using bash, ksh, et al.
