Author Description

The Linux Networking-HOWTO details important networking issues when using the popular Linux operating system. Linux Networking-HOWTO includes: * informative background material for newcomers * a generic discussion of networking issues * technology-specific information grouped in three main sections: Ethernet and IP-related information, technologies pertaining to widespread PC hardware, and seldom-used technologies. This book is an outgrowth of the original NET-FAQ, written by Matt Welsh and Terry Dawson. It covered the very early development versions of the Linux Networking Kernel. Linux Networking HOWTO is an updated resource, and relates to version 4 of the Linux Networking Kernel, or more specifically kernel releases 2.x and 2.2.x.
