I notice this on the www.Amazon.com site, it includes a FreeBSD binary v2.2.5 CD, and Red Hat v4.2. I was hoping some could update: www.freebsd.org/publish.html -------------------- long: From the Amazon site -------------------- Unix Unleashed : Internet Edition (Unleashed) by Robin Burk, David B. Horvath Bk&Disk Edition Hardcover, 1100 pages Amazon.com: Become a graphical user interface (GUI) expert from both the end user's and programmer's perspectives with Unix Unleashed: Internet Edition. You'll learn about the tools used with the World Wide Web and how to transmit binary files via e-mail. In addition, the volume includes supplementary material on HTML, MIME formats, and HTTP and serves as a tutorial on text editing and basic programming with vi and Emacs. You will learn how to program Unix and CGI with awk, Perl, C, and C++. The book includes information on how to monitor your Web server's activity and optimize its performance and how to manage your development cycle and programmer teams with version tracking systems such as RCS (Revision Control System), CVS (Concurrent Version System), or SCCS (Source Code Control System). You'll even get the lowdown on Unix security risks, available security tools, and helpful organizations. This edition includes software, tools, source code, and a CD-ROM version. The first edition of Unix Unleashed provided a thick, comprehensive guide to the basic tools of the Unix trade, covering everything from system administration to the windowing system to the compiler environments. The guide also featured information on other tools, such as the vi editor, the command shells, the AWK, PERL, C and C++ languages, and instructions on text formatting, version control, and security features. The current edition improves on earlier releases with a beefy section on Internet technologies--the HTTP protocol, Web servers, CGI programming, MIME, and even a basic guide to HTML. Sections addressing specific issues with particular implementations of Unix, including Advanced Interactive Executive (AIX), Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD), Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, IRIX, and SVR4 round out this handy reference guide. The book also includes a jargon glossary and copious FAQ document in case any or all of these topics are completely unfamiliar. Finally, the book includes a CD-ROM with a full binary release version of FreeBSD 2.2.5, Linux Red Hat 4.2 release for x86, Perl 5.x, a host of utilities, and an electronic version of both this book and its companion System Administrator's Edition.
