Summary
System administration is not a complicated subject, unless you want to get into the nitty-gritty of your operating system and its configuration. For most Linux users who use the operating system for their personal experimentation, the administration steps explained in this chapter should be sufficient for most purposes. If you want to get into more detail, check out a good UNIX system administration book. From here, you may want to learn more about the following topics:


SCSI (Small Computer Systems Interface) devices and how they add to your Linux system’s flexibility are discussed in Chapter 36, “SCSI Device Support.”
Setting up email on your Linux system are discussed in Chapter 40, “Configuring Linux for Mail.”
The tar command, backups, and the importance of making backup copies of your system are discussed in Chapter 45, “Backups.”
