Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Copycat
Review: I bought this book from Amazon a few weeks ago, but I do not like it at all.

I think the authors did not want spend enough time to write a good book. They are only interested in getting your money. This book was very badly organized and in very bad format.

I do not think the authors understanding Solaris quite well. You can get the most information in this book on the Internet. Looks like they copied some articles on the Inetnet and changed a little bit then INSERTed them into this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good overall book
Review: I'm fairly new to Solaris/UNIX - about a year of dabbling with it. I've been awaiting the release of this book for quite a while (It was announced a year before release then was late). When it finally came in the mail the other day, I dove right into it. About halfway through, I'd say this is a pretty good book. It covers all the essentials that are built in to Solaris. I am reading it cover to cover and taking notes in a file. Although it doesn't cover complex 3rd party apps, like BIND, it does cover smaller 3rd party products, such as ssh. It does cover Solaris in and of itself pretty well and I am learning a lot. I'd recommend this as an addition to your library.
