Release Notes

There's a great deal of excitement surrounding the use of Linux in embedded systems -- for everything from cell phones to car ABS systems and water- filtration plants -- but not a lot of practical information. Building Embedded Linux Systems offers an in-depth, hard-core guide to putting together embedded systems based on Linux. Updated for the latest version of the Linux kernel, this new edition gives you the basics of building embedded Linux systems, along with the configuration, setup, and use of more than 40 different open source and free software packages in common use. The book also looks at the strengths and weaknesses of using Linux in an embedded system, plus a discussion of licensing issues, and an introduction to real-time, with a discussion of real-time options for Linux.

This indispensable book features arcane and previously undocumented procedures for: Building your own GNU development toolchain Using an efficient embedded development framework Selecting, configuring, building, and installing a target-specific kernel Creating a complete target root filesystem Setting up, manipulating, and using solid-state storage devices Installing and configuring a bootloader for the target Cross-compiling a slew of utilities and packages Debugging your embedded system using a plethora of tools and techniques Using the uClibc, BusyBox, U-Boot, OpenSSH, thttpd, tftp, strace, and gdb packages By presenting how to build the operating system components from pristine sources and how to find more documentation or help, Building Embedded Linux Systems greatly simplifies the task of keeping complete control over your embedded operating system.

Pro Oracle Database RAC on Linux

Real Application Clusters (RAC) and the Grid architecture are Oracle's strategy for scaling out enterprise systems to cope with bigger workloads and more users. Many books limit themselves by conceptualizing and theorizing about RAC technology, but this book is the first to portray implementing and administering an Oracle 10g RAC system in a Linux environment. This book features basic concepts underlying Linux and Oracle RAC, design strategies, hardware procurement and configuration, and many other topics.

The RAC-specific technologies described include configuration of the interconnect, OCFS, ASM, Cluster Ready Services, and Grid Control. The Oracle features RMAN and Data Guard are also discussed, along with available hardware options. The authors include practical examples and configuration information, so that upon reading this book, you’ll be armed with the information you need to build an Oracle RAC database on Linux, whether it is on a single laptop or a 64-node Itanium cluster.

Linux Security

Library of Congress Cataloging | English | ISBN-1-931841-99-3 | Oct-2002 | PDF | 3.24 MB | 513 pages

Introduction

This book provides you with comprehensive knowledge about Linux Security. The book is aimed at readers who are familiar with Linux concepts but now want to gain a solid foundation in Linux security features. It is assumed these readers already understand some Linux and networking concepts, such as network protocols, network servers, and so on. This book contains detailed information to help you fortify your Linux environment and provides questions that enable you to check your understanding at the end of key chapters. Chapters 1 through 5 cover security basics in the Linux environment. These chapters give you an overview of Linux security, covering the precautions to be taken while installing and administering Linux. This part of the book also gives you an overview of the various authentication and encryption techniques you can use to protect your data. Chapters 6 through 9 deal with securing networks in the Linux environment.

Various kinds of possible network attacks are discussed in this part of the book, and you are given guidelines for preventing these attacks. Securing network servers—such as Apache Web server, FTP server, Sendmail, DNS, and SAMBA—is the core of this second part of the book. Chapters 10 through 13 focus on preventing intrusion and data recovery. In these chapters, you are provided with an extensive list of signs of intrusions. You will learn to use various tools and security utilities to detect and avoid intrusion. Maintaining logs regularly is a good practice for system administrators. Logs can give you indications of methods used to attack your system, and at times, you can get information about the attacker as well. Chapter 12, “System Logs,” educates you about using logs. In the last chapter of the book, I discuss the importance of making backups. You’ll realize how important backups are if you ever lose data due to system crashes or other reasons. Various commercial and non-commercial tools that you can use to maintain backups are discussed in this chapter.Finally, this book also includes several appendices. The appendices include best Linux practices and FAQs for Linux security. An appendix on the future of Linux also is included at the end of the book.

Advanced Linux Programming

Advanced Linux Programming An in-depth guide to programming Linux from the most recognised leaders in the Open Surce community.

Written by recognized leaders in the open source community! Learn what theyve learned from working with well-known groups like Advanced Computing Laboratory of Los Alamos National Laboratory and the GCC Open Source Group.

Author Mark Mitchell is the award-winning lead developer and manager for the GCC 3.0 release (the compiler used when programming with Linux). Learn the advanced aspects of Linux programming from the best.

The ultimate guide to creating, compiling, running, and debugging Linux code. Advanced Linux Programming brings the success of Code Sourcery, LLC to paper. Anyone who works with Linux regularly or who is looking to start working with Linux, knows who this company is and they rely on them for solutions. Mark and Alex bring to their readers the know-how theyve gained over the years. The book is divided into two parts. The first covers generic UNIX system services, but with a particular eye towards Linux specific information. This portion of the book will be of use even to advanced programmers who have worked with other Linux systems since it will cover Linux specific details and differences. For programmers without UNIX experience, it will be even more valuable. The second section covers material that is entirely Linux specific. These are truly advanced topics, and are the techniques that the gurus use to build great applications. This book is written for Linux programmers who are reasonably skilled in the C programming language and who are in need of a book that covers the Linux C library (glibc). The Web site includes all the code developed in the book and is a source of communication for readers of the book to speak directly to the authors.
