Networking Personal Computers with TCP/IP: Building TCP/IP Networks by Craig Hunt

This text offers practical information as well as detailed instructions for attaching PCs to a TCP/IP network and its UNIX servers. It discusses the challenges you'll face and offers general advice on how to deal with them, provides basic TCP/IP configuration information for some of the popular PC operating systems, covers advanced configuration topics and configuration of specific applications such as e-mail, and includes a chapter on NetWare, the most popular PC LAN system software.

About Craig Hunt

Craig Hunt is an author, lecturer, and network administrator. Craig has worked with computer systems for more than 20 years. He spent the first few years after receiving his bachelor's degree from American University running an outdoor camp for inner-city kids, but the call of computing was too strong. Craig went to work for the federal government as a programmer and then as a system programmer. He left the government to work for Honeywell on the WWMCCS network in the days before TCP/IP, back when the network used Network Control Protocol. After Honeywell, Craig went to work for the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He is still there today working on computer networking. Craig lives with his wife and children in Gaithersburg, Maryland. He has a passion for rock and roll music. Craig loves the outdoors; he splits vacation time between the mountains and the sea. He has recently begun exploring the agonies of golf and has found it to be an excellent way to ruin a walk in the park.
