Linux Web Server CD Bookshelf, Version 2.0

Open source innovation has given rise to many valuable tools and technologies, including some of the most powerful and popular web development tools available. LAMP technologies (that is, Linux-Apache-MySQL-Perl/PHP/Python) provide a great application development platform, especially for robust web applications that run on Linux servers. Solid, reliable, and affordable, it's no wonder that LAMP is the platform of choice for web development. For years, O'Reilly's bestselling LAMP books have helped programmers master the finer points of these open source tools. Now we're offering six top titles on one CD to give programmers the tools they need to develop their own systems and get started with open source web development using LAMP technologies. The Linux Web Server CD Bookshelf, 2nd Edition, delivers more than 3,600 pages of easily searchable information in a convenient format accessible from any web browser. You'll find the latest editions of these books:

• Linux in a Nutshell, 4th edition

Open Source Linux® Web Programming

In Open Source Linux Web Programming, authors Christopher A. Jones and Drew Batchelor have written a noteworthy text to enhance the conceptual and functional proficiencies of beginning Web programmers. Perhaps of more value, they describe the Internet from a viewpoint that would benefit the mildly confused information managers whose technical generation gap makes the state of the art seem like an ongoing jumble of acronyms of clients, servers, interfaces, and markup languages.

The first two-thirds of the book reads like a well-thought-out college syllabus for a single-semester course in Web programming. Revealing their preferences for Perl and XML, Jones and Batchelor introduce the pieces of Web programming with a potentially deceptive mix of the practical and the theoretical.

In a series of compact 50-page chapters, the authors move with laudable efficiency through Web architecture, the Apache server, Perl and its uses in the CGI applications, and to HTML and its generalization as XML. The course ends with an intriguing pedagogical project: a client-based Web content administrator with XML. Does that seem like a security problem for real-world applications? No doubt, but Jones and Batchelor never address security problems of any kind. They are justified in ignoring security as long as their students and readers are planning to study Internet security in later classes or books.

The final third of the book introduces a forward-looking model of the Internet: Java applets and the Java/XML interface. While XML belongs more to the future than the present, the future is clearly now for Java. The final chapters on server error-handling and Web site administration are little more than an annotated outline of key issues with bits of code. These chapters should be browsed for nuggets of practical advice, but the authors' tutorial energies are spent on XML applications and run dry before the practical aspects of Web management are addressed.

In a quirky but unobjectionable way, Jones and Batchelor and their editors at M&T Books have fathomed and met the need for a hurry-up guide to Web programming. Security, databases, and auxiliary applications like PHP3 are missing, but not missed. --Peter Leopold

This complete toolbox of techniques shows you how to harness the open-source power of Linux -- and create world-class Internet applications. Offering a step-by-step approach to building an e-commerce site, a human resources site, bringing corporate data online, and more, expert Web developers Christopher Jones and Drew Batchelor explain the complexities of 3-tier Web applications, distributed architecture, and object-oriented programming -- and demonstrate how to use open source tools such as Perl, XML, and Java to build scalability, flexibility, and performance into your Internet site.

TCP/IP & Linux Protocol Implementation: Systems Code for the Linux Internet

A one-of-a-kind description about using the Linux operating system on a TCP/IP network Boasting high-performance, high availability, and open source code, Linux has emerged as an optimal choice for an operating system. Yet for Linux to be adopted by the mainstream of Unix-based corporate and ISP networks, it must be capable of supporting the TCP/IP Internet protocol, like any other network operating system. This book provides the rapidly growing audience of Linux site managers, as well as researchers and developers worldwide, with the information they need on how Linux TCP/IP keeps the network running. Internationally recognized expert on Internetworking, Jon Crowcroft walks readers through the Linux TCP/IP protocol stack, offering detailed explanations on how Linux implements its communications protocols. Vinton Cerf--co-inventor of TCP/IP--is the technical editor for this book.
