A great book for new, and not so new, system administrators.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
UNIX Unleashed: System Administrator's Edition is one of the best introductions to UNIX system administration that I have ever seen. From fundamental topics such as "What is UNIX?" to advanced system administration procedures, this book covers the entire range of technical information. Moreover, the book includes technical details specific to several major UNIX implementations including HP-UX, AIX, and Solaris.Having been a UNIX system administrator for several years, I have found few books that distill relevant technical information as well and as thoroughly as UNIX Unleashed. I often recommend this book to power users, new system administrators, and programmers. For me, it is a very useful personal reference.The organization of the book into three parts--Introduction to UNIX, UNIX Shells, and System Administration--corresponds to the natural stages of technical development of a UNIX System Administrator. Each part is extraordinarily complete and a great reference alone. Together, they are an exhaustive source of information.

You want to administer UNIX, an no one else can help, then maybee you can hire...the A-Team.This book throws itself right in at the level for beginners but is equally a dead cert for expert reference (although some egg heads may find it's information not deep enough ). With this book I was able to pass a university exam and obtain the highest grade that t he lecturer had EVER given....
This is an Overall good book for beginning sysadmins.

This is a good book for beginning systems administrators. This is a good book if you plan to skim the chapters for a specific topic. A few of the chapters could have been easier to read (Including chapters about the different shells). This is not a good book for absolute beginners at UNIX because of the difficulty in the shell chapters.
