The FreeBSD Corporate Networker's Guide by Ted Mittelstaedt Pdf

FreeBSD runs many of the Web's most demanding applications. Yahoo! uses FreeBSD to deliver nearly 500 million page hits a day; even Microsoft's Hotmail has run for years on FreeBSD. Now, there's a single source of documentation for the thousands of technical professionals who've discovered FreeBSD and want to leverage its awesome power. The FreeBSD Corporate Networker's Guide covers everything IT professionals need to know to deploy and manage FreeBSD in applications from the desktop to high availability enterprise servers. Start with an overview of how FreeBSD compares with Windows NT, and the roles a FreeBSD server might play in an enterprise network. Next, review server planning, hardware selection, and infrastructure preparation; then walk through the steps involved in a successful FreeBSD installation. Master every aspect of FreeBSD Internet connectivity and services -- including TCP/IP, DNS, security, Apache, email, and more. Learn the fundamentals of FreeBSD system administration; use FreeBSD systems as firewalls and routers; configure Samba to support Windows workstations; deliver efficient print services, and more. The book concludes with a "manifesto" explaining why companies should consider migrating all their business-critical applications to FreeBSD, whatever they're using now. An accompanying CD-ROM contains FreeBSD 4.1, the latest version.

FreeBSD Device Drivers by Joseph Kong Pdf

Device drivers make it possible for your software to communicate with your hardware, and because every operating system has specific requirements, driver writing is nontrivial. When developing for FreeBSD, you've probably had to scour the Internet and dig through the kernel sources to figure out how to write the drivers you need. Thankfully, that stops now. In FreeBSD Device Drivers, Joseph Kong will teach you how to master everything from the basics of building and running loadable kernel modules to more complicated topics like thread synchronization. After a crash course in the different FreeBSD driver frameworks, extensive tutorial sections dissect real-world drivers like the parallel port printer driver. You'll learn: –All about Newbus, the infrastructure used by FreeBSD to manage the hardware devices on your system –How to work with ISA, PCI, USB, and other buses –The best ways to control and communicate with the hardware devices from user space –How to use Direct Memory Access (DMA) for maximum system performance –The inner workings of the virtual null modem terminal driver, the USB printer driver, the Intel PCI Gigabit Ethernet adapter driver, and other important drivers –How to use Common Access Method (CAM) to manage host bus adapters (HBAs) Concise descriptions and extensive annotations walk you through the many code examples. Don't waste time searching man pages or digging through the kernel sources to figure out how to make that arcane bit of hardware work with your system. FreeBSD Device Drivers gives you the framework that you need to write any driver you want, now.

Mastering FreeBSD and OpenBSD Security by Yanek Korff,Paco Hope,Bruce Potter Pdf

FreeBSD and OpenBSD are increasingly gaining traction in educational institutions, non-profits, and corporations worldwide because they provide significant security advantages over Linux. Although a lot can be said for the robustness, clean organization, and stability of the BSD operating systems, security is one of the main reasons system administrators use these two platforms.There are plenty of books to help you get a FreeBSD or OpenBSD system off the ground, and all of them touch on security to some extent, usually dedicating a chapter to the subject. But, as security is commonly named as the key concern for today's system administrators, a single chapter on the subject can't provide the depth of information you need to keep your systems secure.FreeBSD and OpenBSD are rife with security "building blocks" that you can put to use, and Mastering FreeBSD and OpenBSD Security shows you how. Both operating systems have kernel options and filesystem features that go well beyond traditional Unix permissions and controls. This power and flexibility is valuable, but the colossal range of possibilities need to be tackled one step at a time. This book walks you through the installation of a hardened operating system, the installation and configuration of critical services, and ongoing maintenance of your FreeBSD and OpenBSD systems.Using an application-specific approach that builds on your existing knowledge, the book provides sound technical information on FreeBSD and Open-BSD security with plenty of real-world examples to help you configure and deploy a secure system. By imparting a solid technical foundation as well as practical know-how, it enables administrators to push their server's security to the next level. Even administrators in other environments--like Linux and Solaris--can find useful paradigms to emulate.Written by security professionals with two decades of operating system experience, Mastering FreeBSD and OpenBSD Security features broad and deep explanations of how how to secure your most critical systems. Where other books on BSD systems help you achieve functionality, this book will help you more thoroughly secure your deployments.
