Synopsis
Wouldn't you like to automate the tedious daily tasks of system administration? Automating UNIX and Linux Administration will show you how, by exploring existing tools and offering real-world examples. Although some of the book is Linux-specific, most of the information applies to any UNIX system, including material on automating tasks across multiple variants of UNIX. Author Kirk Bauer briefly overviews tools and technologies--and assumes preliminary knowledge about editing a configuration file or mounting a file system. The techniques, methods, and tools in this book will help you manage a single system--but will prove especially powerful across multiple systems. No matter if the systems are desktops, servers, or Beowulf clusters--all of them will benefit from this automation. And managing five to five thousand systems will become a simpler task!

About the Author
Kirk Bauer has been using computers and programming since 1985. He has been using and administering UNIX systems since 1994. Although his personal favorite UNIX variant is Linux, he has administered everything from FreeBSD to Solaris, AIX, and IRIX.
Kirk has been involved with software development and system/network administration since his first year at Georgia Tech. He has done work for the Georgia Tech Residential Network, the Georgia Tech Research Institute, and the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. Kirk was one of the founders and the CTO of TogetherWeb in 2000, which was purchased in 2003 by Proficient Systems. Kirk is currently a software architect with Proficient Systems and continues to support and develop the collaborative browsing software and Linux-based network appliance created by TogetherWeb.
Kirk’s latest development is a fully automated installation, configuration, management, and monitoring system that is used to deploy Proficient’s software on RLX ServerBlades. Saving time through automation has always been his passion, as evidenced by his collection of open-source software—the most popular being AutoRPM and Logwatch. Shortly after graduating from Georgia Tech in 2001 with a bachelor’s of science in Computer Engineering, Kirk married Amber, the love of his life. They currently live in Peoria, AZ with their two dogs and four cats.
