I'm a newbie, and I'm planning on using freebsd to serve some webpages, provide ftp/ssh access, meanwhile be accessible on my Windows network/workgroup. I've looked over some options as far as setup goes and all that, and I think I'm going to go with the following: The FreeBSD Corporate Networker's Guide FreeBSD Handbook, 2nd Ed. Are these solid choices? Any of these delve into apache or samba at all? I know absolutely nothing about freebsd, apache, and samba, and am anxious for some reading material that will help me cover basic installs/configurations. I'm currently running 4.5-stable, and am wondering if they will still be relevant considering they cover older versions? Will they have newer versions of these books out soon that I should maybe wait for?
