Chapter 11. Setting Up a Networked Workstation
Linux's greatest
strength is its powerful and robust networking capabilities. The good
news is that everything about Linux's networking
setup is open to inspection and completely configurable. Nothing is
hidden from the user, and no parameters are forced on you. The
challenge is to get the most out of this setup.
Basic networking principles don't differ much
between Windows and Linux, and indeed the principles
aren't unfamiliar. This chapter begins with an
overview of networking and then looks in more detail at Linux
networking on a local area network (LAN). In Chapter 12 you'll learn about setting up
Internet services.
This chapter explains how to set up a LAN that includes a Linux Samba
server, which lets Microsoft Windows and Unix systems access shared
files and printers across the network. Samba not only lets you share
files and printers, it can also be used to back up and restore files
via the network. This chapter also explains how to install and
configure a DHCP server that lets you manage network configurations
centrally, facilitating network administration.
