Hello! I have just bought the book "Linux Security" by Bob Toxen, which is supposed to be really good. I have already skipped through it a little and it looks well written and easy to read/understand. Are there any similar Linux/Unix Security books out there? I know i could get a 3MB PDF file of linux network security, or whatever. It often turns out that its wasting time because its too old, simply to general or just boring to read. And i prefer to grep a cup of tea and tar myself into a yummy covered bed. ;D So what "must read" books can you recommend which are similar to Bob ToxensŽs? Cheers, Spiekey
Hi, to me Bob Toxen's book is the "bible" of Linux security (just my personal opinion), however, try "Hacking Linux Exposed" (the 'Linux' version of the all famous "Hacking Exposed" ) - which is quite fun to read. Cheers Wolf On Sat, 21 Dec 2002, Mario Ohnewald wrote:
