The Linux Networking Cookbook is the best Networking Cookbook I have ever used.

Good stuff for Samba, security, routers, etc.

No desserts, though.

Uhm, I own it, but I haven't read that particular chapter. Is 'having read it' also a prerequisite?

No. That's actually the best thing about the book. It's not a book for reading so much as it is a book for using. So --

Ask the quesiton :"Hey? Wonder if I could use Linux to set up a Linux Wireless Access Point? Maybe it's in the cookbook."
