About the Companion Web Site

Even in a book that pushes the 1,000-page boundary, a few topics don't seem to make the cut. After you have gone through the book, you can visit the companion Web site at www. wiley .com/go/fedora6bible for some bonus material on topics such as using the X Window system, finding neat add-on software, exploring alternative administrative interfaces, Logsentry, and Portsentry.

With improved tools for learning about the contents of Fedora Core software packages, we decided to move the 40+ pages of Fedora Core software package descriptions to the Web site. Topics moved to the Web site from previous editions of this book includes information on using legacy UNIX remote commands ( rlogin, rcp , and the like), running Tripwire to manage system security, running a NetWare server in Linux (mars_nwe) and using crack and other password protection tools. Features moved from the immediately preceding edition include descriptions of the wu-FTPd FTP server, INN news server, and the sendmail.cf file.
