Compaq/Digital Unix Guide - Very Useful

I'm a UNIX System Admin and I've used this Guide frequently. My primary flavor is HP-UX but I'm also responsible for a spattering of Compaq (Digital) servers as well. I've had no problems locating commands or understanding their usage. This Guide works. Don't be misled by the "DIGITAL" in the title - all the commands are the same ...just the name has changed ( to Compaq ). Best Regards, turtlex.

Great TRU64 UNIX Primer

This book takes you from start to finish on planning and installing TRU64 UNIX. It is easy to follow and logicaly laid out for any with a system administration back ground in OpenVMS or another UNIX operating system. The book points out commonly made mistakes and helps you avoid them.

An excellent resource for beginners in Digital sysadmin

A must for all the Digital system administration guys. Gives most of the stuff required for the system administration work. After going through the book one can understand with clarity all the concepts of tru64unix. Beginners benefit the most.

Great value

If you are already familiar with the basics of the Digital Unix operating system (or, Tru64 Unix), this one is a great value. It teaches not only the basics of the System Adminstrator's work, but on the small but important details. I mostly liked the chapter about Security (which lacks in many other books).

Comprehensive and accessible.

This guide is an excellent resource for system administrators new to Digital UNIX. Matthew Cheek has taken the best bits from the Digital UNIX documentation and coupled them with helpful examples and real-world experiences. Its size and style make it a perfect addition to any Digital UNIX administrator's toolkit.
