Customer Review: The Apache Cookbook is a must have for anyone considering running their own Apache web server. It covers every major feature of Apache and does so without giving too information to the new user while giving more experienced users the guidance to go off on their own and become Apache power users in... more info
Customer Review: I bought this book to gain some knowledge on JBOss - instead what i was getting was a book with lecture on how to code J2EE or ejb! Not a book for JBoss!
Customer Review: I don't think a long, comprehensive review is needed here. This is a quick reference guide to have handy when you're working on a project or whatever. You won't learn MySQL from it but as long as you are already familiar with it, it serves as a great, quick reference, especially when you are... more info
Customer Review: Seller was very good for pricing, shipping, delivery and condition (new). Excellent book, cover unix and windows install and configuration. Just be sure to get the latest version.
Customer Review: All I can say if you buy one Apache book make sure this is the one. After all securing your Apache installation is the most important thing. Also check out the Apache Security site. Ivan is awesome!
Customer Review: Seller was great. This is an outstanding book. Great instructions and explanations for installation and configuration on both Windows and Unix. Check before buying the version of Tomcat you are using and which this book covers asa there are many different editions/versions.
Customer Review: This book shows its age (which is quite expected since GNU/Linux is such a fast moving target) but still includes some good tips and tricks for system administration and advanced level use of GNU/Linux systems. If you're some who really need this book then you'll also need 'Linux Server Hacks,... more info
Customer Review: Everything you need to know about v.1.3, but with Apache 2.0 just around the corner (currently in beta), you might want to hold off until the 2nd edition. This edition touches very briefly on 2.0, providing a general overview of what to expect, but no meat. A lot remains the same, but some critical... more info
Customer Review: This book is perfect for programmers AND webmasters! Before reading this book I had very limited knowledge of what mod rewrite was or how it worked. After I finished it I was able to: 1. Make search engine friendly URLs (dynamically generated by my site) work. 2. Block bad bots and remote... more info
Customer Review: Just to add what the others have said -- this book is very, very well written. I've read (or tried to read) several Linux "get up to speed" books on specific distributions and have found that most either insult your intelligence with detailed steps describing very simple procedures -- or they... more info
Customer Review: So the "Sam's Teach Yourself" searies of books I have used a few times in the past to learn some tech stuff, and they have always been decently helpful. These books can move a bit quickly and sometimes have a tendency to expect more from you than you might know, but it also covers a good range... more info
Customer Review: As anyone who has ever tried to install Oracle products on Linux can tell you, the process is not as simple as clicking on a little install icon. There are security parameters to set, packages to verify, memory parameters to change, and users and groups to configure. The step-by-step instructions in... more info
Customer Review: I was very suspicious of this book, because I knew it was available online for download. I thought at first, why not just print it and read it. A friend of mine told me this is something completely different. And he was right. It was worth every penny (cent). The book is a great introduction to... more info
Customer Review: This is a fabulous book, clear and well-written. It's simple enough for those without much experience, but also provides enough detail for those who don't need coddling... Definitely, worth the $.
SOA Security from Manning Publications Price: $27.00
Customer Review: This is an extremely well written book. The topic is very technical but the book is easy to read and follow and does a great job of explaining the nuts and bolts of SOA Security. I also think the author did a great job of using relevant examples.
Customer Review: If you want to know how to use OAS 10g with your development tools, this book is cover it. But not too detail. I hope I can find a book with best practise suggestion how to use OAS10g with form and report or java tools.
Customer Review: I'm finding this book to be a great help to be introduced to the Apache Server. I'm using it for a class and have found it to be a great piece along with my lectures. It is a little outdated, but the concepts are still good, so that helps. Plus the author adds a bit of humor, which is nice.
Customer Review: I know I'll be rated down, as everything I write here gets rated down. First off is the reason I got a copy of this book. (thank god it was used) I am experimenting with options to lock down linux, I wanted to know about, and set up a wide range of technologies to get a good feeling for how... more info
