Large parts of CFBSD address desktop setups. Obviously with a name like that, it needs to address servers too. And in all likelihood you'll find yourself running servers sooner than you think. > As an example of the level needed, where I'm stuck is I don't know > how to configure X from the incredibly primitive default setup. That's in there. Design and Implementation is a very different book. It doesn't do server setup: it's for kernel software developers. A good book, but presumably not what you're looking for.
