Review title: Only handles "smooth sailing" issues
Product review: I have a copy. It has its good points and its bad points.+ It quickly gets you set up using the Red Hat GUI tools. Using it so set up Samba and NFS was trivial.- It is very Red Hat specific. It only rarely talks about the underlying Linux configuration files and formats.- If anything goes wrong (say for example permissions were set incorrectly on /etc/myConfiguration), you will have NO CLUE what to do next if the GUI tool fails. You may not even know file names.If you want to know how to do typical configuration tasks, and you stay close to the vanilla Red Hat installation, this book may be OK.On the other hand, if you are using any other installation, or modifying default Red Hat tools, this book doesn't really help. It will NOT tell you much about what the GUI tool actually configured for you.
