Obviously, this is a dated book. Nevertheless is very well written, and you still can learn a lot especially from the early days when Linux was still trying to be a *NIX clone, that is before the RedHats and Novells and other commercial successes that steered the new distributions toward Microsoft's ways and paths of doing bussiness- take a simple command, burry it under a nice GUI, and wreak havoc into the old simple ways, shuffling files and paths around so you can boast you ADDED value ! One nice thing about this book is that the Caldera in the title is just an example, a suggestion if you will, most of the stuff worked on any other distro of the time almost with no tweaks or arm wrestling. You'd have a hard time today to do the same, but I believe still this book will teach you "to ask the right questions" when you wrestle with your LAN.
