Automating Linux and Unix System Administration - Paperback

by Nathan Campi (Author), Kirk Bauer (Author)

This book is about automating tasks that any network administrator would otherwise have to manually perform. Automation increases the efficiency of a network because it reduces the number of errors that repetitive manual input is likely to produce, and at the same time reduces the number of personnel required to manually perform tasks.
