  1. Worthwhile, even outside of *BSD by fak3r · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This book is worthwhile for anyone running a server, not just *BSD users. There's plenty of specifics of running servers and configuration that makes this an invaluable aide to any sys admin. Honestly I think it gets a little slow when it walks you through the installer (!) but I guess that's why it's "complete"! Recommended.
