LINUX: Rute User’s Tutorial and Exposition

LINUX: Rute User’s Tutorial and Exposition Paul Sheer

When I began working with GNU/LI N U X in 1994, it was straight from the DOS world. Though UN I X was unfamiliar territory, LI N U X books assumed that anyone using LI N U X was migrating from System V or BSD—systems that I had never heard of. It is a sensible adage to create, for others to share, the recipe that you would most like to have had. Indeed, I am not convinced that a single unifying text exists, even now, without this book. Even so, I give it to you desperately incomplete; but there is only so much one can explain in a single volume.DOWNLOAD NOW File Type:PDF

Practical File System Design

Practical File System Design with the Be File Sysytem (Dominic Giampaolo)

A lthough many operating system textbooks offer highlevel descriptions of ﬁle systems, few go into sufﬁcient detail for an implementor, and none go into details about advanced topics such as journaling. I wrote this book to address that lack of information. This book covers the details of ﬁle systems, from low-level to high-level, as well as related topics such as the disk cache, the ﬁle system interface to the kernel, and the user-level APIs that use the features of the ﬁle system. Reading this book should give you a thorough understanding of how a ﬁle system works in general, how the Be File System (BFS) works in particular, and the issues involved in designing and implementing a ﬁle system.DOWNLOAD NOW File Type: PDF

Maximum Mac OS X Security

2011-09-09T16:28:00.000-07:00

Maximum Mac OS X Security By John Ray, William C. Ray
Publisher: Sams 2003 | 768 Pages

While Mac OS X is becoming more and more stable with each release, its UNIX/BSD underpinnings have security implications that ordinary Mac users have never before been faced with. Mac OS X can be used as both a powerful Internet server, or, in the wrong hands, a very powerful attack launch point.
Yet most Mac OS X books are generally quite simplistic with the exception of the author's Mac OS X Unleashed, the first book to address OS X's underlying BSD subsystem.
Maximum Mac OS X Security takes a similar UNIX-oriented approach, going into significantly greater depth on OS X security topics:
Setup basics, including Airport and network topology security.
User administration and resource management with NetInfo.
Types of attacks, how attacks work, and how to stop them.
Network service security, such as e-mail, Web, and file sharing.
Intrusion prevention and detection, and hands-on detection tools.

Mac OS X internals

2011-08-29T00:38:00.000-07:00

Mac OS X, as a system, is usually either perceived as a black box, or is wrongly understood due to longstanding myths and stereotypes. Some of the most innovative facilities in OS X are actually mature, stable technologies that have been painstakingly developed over the past 15 years by Apple and the open source community as a whole. This is not a tutorial or how to book. This is also not a book for learning Mac OS X programming. Amit Singh digs into the underbelly of the Mac OS X and provides an explanation of the design and inner workings of Mac OS X. This is a book on thoroughly understanding core Mac OS X technologies, specifically the knowledge and appreciation of how different things connect together, how they work internally, where they came from, how they evolved, and so on.

Apple says that Mac OS X 10.3 introduces 150 new features--but that's not really true. In fact, "Panther" includes many more than that. It's faster, more polished, and much more efficient. But it still comes without a manual.

With 300,000 copies in print, the first two versions of this book became industry bestsellers. Now David Pogue brings his humor and expertise to this completely rewritten, greatly expanded edition. It covers:
