Automating Linux and Unix System Administration, Second Edition (Expert's Voice in Linux)

Having the authors guide you through the process of configuring automated installations and configuration of servers is priceless. This book is a must for any linux/unix sysadmin out there. I hope there is a 3rd edition with the new Cfengine 3 soon! This book is not for the beginning linux/unix admin, though. You should have a thorough knowledge of the systems already. Once you have that, using the methods in this book will save you and your bosses countless hours of managing your servers. I would like to thank the authors for a brilliant piece of work.
