Actually, everyone, specially end users, needs to understand the administration and security concepts and tips. Books like that are useful not only for the Linux corporative sysadmins, but for the home user that want to have a better control of his machine. In our Internet days, with all that pesky script kiddies, this could be useful books to anyone that want to be secure, good performance systems

I have been running my own GNU/Linux build (using LFS/BLFS instructions) and having a greater understanding of security a sys admin would be great!

I began to study security related argument on February (Security of Multimedia Contents is the course I followed at my University). This world is so beatiful ... Now, I'm graduating soon and my degree thesis deal with neural network in ciphered domain!
