+KEYWORDS: SYSV
+COMMENTS
+ Rochkind is a former Bell Labs UNIX guru who wrote SCCS back in the
+ mid 70's. This book is exactly what the title states, basically an
+ extremely thorough treatment of programming using the UNIX System
+ Call Interface. System V, System III, V7, 4.2 BSD, and Xenix are
+ all discussed. The system calls are organized functionally into
+ chapters that cover file i/o, terminal i/o, process control,
+ interprocess communication, and miscellaneous calls. The opening
+ chapter is an overvview of fundamental concepts of UNIX. Anytime
+ I have a question on the usage of system calls I consult this book.
+ The only problem with it is that it needs to be updated per
+ System V Rel 3, 4.3 BSD and the efforts of Sun and AT&T to bring
+ SunOS and System V together as well as the efforts in the UNIX 386
+ world.

+
+ --From back cover--
+ This book is the first authoritative description of the design and
+ implementation of the research version of the UNIX System developed
+ at the University of California at Berkeley. It covers the INTERNAL
+ structure of the 4.3BSD system and the concetps, data structures, and
+ algorithms used in implementing the system facilites. The book also
+ includes a chaper on the implementation of TCP/IP -- a networking
+ protocol suite widely implemented throughout the world.
+
+ Both philosophical and design issues of 4.3BSD are discussed, as well
+ as details of the actual implementation. In most cases, the
+ discussion starts at the system-call level and descends from the
+ interface to the kernel down to the hardware itself. The kernel
+ includes system facilities such as process management, memory
+ management, the I/O system, the filesystem, the socket IPC mechanism,
+ and network-protocol implementations.
+
+ The Design and Implemenation of the 4.3BSD UNIX Operating System is an
+ in-depth study of a contemporary operating system. This book assumes
+ that the reader understands basic operating-system terminology and has
+ some familiarity with any version of the UNIX System and with the C
+ programming language. Therefore, this book is suitable for
+ operating-system implementors, systems programmers, and UNIX
+ application developers.

+
+ The remainder of the book looks at the architecture of the Internet,
+ the TCP/IP technology, and the applications that use it in more
+ detail. It discusses the fundamentals of protocols like TCP/IP as
+ well as showing how they fit into the internet. In additon to
+ providing details, the book highlights the general principles
+ underlying network protocols, and explains why the TCP/IP protocols
+ adapt easily to so many underlying network technologies. Readers will
+ find a brief summary of the network hardware used throughout the
+ Internet that focuses on the features of each technology that are of
+ primary importance to an Internet architect.

+ - A comprehensive overview of UNIX. Major sections are:
+
+ UNIX in Time - Usual trash plus history of user groups,
+ universities, with a comprehensive "who's who" in
+ UNIX history. Present & Future deals with where
+ UNIX is now and where its going - companies,
+ standards and dialects are treated at length.
+
+ UNIX Information - How people really learn about UNIX.
+ Discussion of books, magazines, conferences, and, of
+ course, source code.
+
+ Inside UNIX - In-depth descriptions of UNIX from three
+ different perspectives - user, programmer and
+ adminstrator.
+
+ Outside UNIX - Third-party stuff. Discussions of how UNIX
+ has prospered/withered in face of real-world problems.
+ Underground - archives, USENET, public access UNIX,
+ GNU, MINIX, public-domain and/or free software, etc.
+
+ This book is quite unusual, not only because of its scope, but
+ because it prints things that have never appeared in print (for one
+ reason or another) - things that most people don't realize or find
+ until years after they have used UNIX. It is essentially a
+ "reading between the lines" of all the other UNIX manuals, books
+ and magazines. Lastly, "Life With UNIX" is chock full of amusing
+ UNIX stories and anecdotes, all designed to provide you with key
+ insights into why UNIX is the way it is. "Life with UNIX" is a
+ must book for UNIX beginners to UNIX gurus.

+
+ Portable C Software is designed for professional programmers and
+ students who want to write portable C code between System V
+ implementations, POSIX, MS DOS, and other operating systems.
+
+ Assuming a working knowledge of C, this book addresses and rates
+ each feature of the C software environment. Shell commands, system
+ calls, external variables, and macros are discussed and examined
+ in detail.
+
+ The author provides an advanced introduction to C, describes how
+ best to write portable software, examines what not to do, discusses
+ common mistakes, and includes an invaluable portability reference
+ manual. In this extensive manual, the author rates the portability
+ of the following
+
+ o subroutines available in C libraries
+ o operating system calls
+ o header include files
+ o predefined variables in the C library
+ o UNIX(R) system shell commands
+
+ Portable C Software offers concise, current coverage of C, and
+ will be an important reference for anyone who writes C programs.
+
+ Of the nearly 400 pages, about 250 are reference material. Some of it
+ is fairly detailed. If you find any errors, or have any suggestions
+ for the next edition, please drop me a note at

+ OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! I've had mine since USENIX and it's been with

+ for you if you are even slightly interested in perl as a language,
+ and it's easy reading and excellent examples will make you, as
+ Randal would say ``Just Another Perl Hacker''. It is even worth
+ reading if you are not *yet* interested in the language.
+ Programming perl is very light reading and in the words of Larry:
+ "...mildly amusing in some spots (and wildly amusing in others)."
+
+ From back cover: Perl is a language for easily manipulating text
+ files and processes. Perl provides a more concise and readable way to
+ do many jobs that were formally accomplished (with difficulty) by
+ programming in the C language or one of the shells. Even though Perl
+ is not yet a standard part of UNIX, it is likely to be available at
+ any UNIX site. And if it isn't, users can get it and install it
+ easily and FREE of charge.

+ What do you say about a computer security book that has a picture of a
+ cute little cartoon devil on the cover?
+
+ Well, in this case, the cover hides a competent and fairly thorough
+ treatment of security on UNIX systems. Nothing terribly surprising,
+ but a step-by-step exploration of the various aspects of UNIX
+ security, potential threats, and suggestions to reduce the level of
+ vulnerability.
+
+ The subtitle explains that the book is "A Guide for Users and System
+ Administrators" and the preface further provides that the attempt has
+ been made to provide sufficient information that administrators can
+ protect their systems, while not giving away details that can help
+ crackers. By and large the book succeeds. The book is clear and
+ simple enough that users (intelligent ones, anyway) should be able to
+ understand the concepts and need for security. System administrators
+ will find a fairly comprehensive overview of the topic. (Some areas,
+ such as the reading list, could use a bit more material, but there is,
+ at least, a "good start".) "Crackers" may find some help (such as the
+ password cracking program), but definitely won't be able to use this
+ as a "cookbook".
