Some of + these chapters may recommend that you do some prior reading, and + this is noted in the synopsis at the beginning of each + chapter. + + For a list of additional sources of information, please see . + + Changes from the + First Edition + + This second edition is the culmination of over two years of + work by the dedicated members of the FreeBSD Documentation + Project. The following are the major changes in this new + edition: + + + + + + A complete Index has been added. + + + All ASCII figures have been replaced by graphical diagrams. + + + A standard synopsis has been added to each chapter to + give a quick summary of what information the chapter contains, + and what the reader is expected to know. + + + The content has been logically reorganized into three + parts: Getting Started, System Administration, and + Appendices. + + + Chapter 2 (Installing FreeBSD) was completely + rewritten with many screenshots to make it much easier for new + users to grasp the text. + + + Chapter 3 (Unix Basics) has been expanded to contain + additional information about processes, daemons, and + signals. + + + Chapter 4 (Installing Applications) has been expanded + to contain additional information about binary package + management. + + + Chapter 5 (The X Window System) has been completely + rewritten with an emphasis on using modern desktop + technologies such as KDE and GNOME on XFree86 4.X. + + + Chapter 7 (The FreeBSD Booting Process) has been + expanded. + + + Chapter 12 (Storage) has been written from what used + to be two separate chapters on Disks and Backups. We feel + that the topics are easier to comprehend when presented as a + single chapter. A section on RAID (both hardware and + software) has also been added. + + + Chapter 15 (Serial Communications) has been completely + reorganized and updated for FreeBSD 4.X/5.X. + + + Chapter 16 (PPP and SLIP) has been substantially + updated. + + + Many new sections have been added to Chapter 17 + (Advanced Networking). + + + Chapter 18 (Electronic Mail) has been expanded to + include more information about configuring + sendmail. + + + Chapter 20 (Linux Compatibility) has been expanded to + include information about installing + Oracle and + SAP/R3. + + + The following new topics are covered in this second + edition: + + + Configuration and Tuning (Chapter 6). + + + Sound (Chapter 14) + + + + + + Organization of This + Book + + This book is split into three logically distinct sections. + The first section, Getting Started, covers + the installation and basic usage of FreeBSD. It is expected that + the reader will follow these chapters in sequence, possibly + skipping chapters covering familiar topics. The second section, + System Administration, covers a broad + collection of subjects that are of interest to more advanced + FreeBSD users. Each section begins with a succinct synopsis that + describes what the chapter covers and what the reader is expected + to already know. This is meant to allow the casual reader to skip + around to find chapters of interest. The third section contains + appendices of reference information. + + + + Chapter 1, Introduction + + Introduces FreeBSD to a new user. It describes the + history of the FreeBSD Project, its goals and development model. + + + + Chapter 2, Installation + + Walks a user through the entire installation process. + Some advanced installation topics, such as installing through + a serial console, are also covered. + + + + Chapter 3, Unix Basics + + Covers the basic commands and functionality of the + FreeBSD operating system. If you are familiar with Linux or + another flavor of Unix then you can probably skip this + chapter. + + + + Chapter 4, Installing Applications + + Covers the installation of third-party software with + both FreeBSD's innovative Ports Collection and standard + binary packages. + + + + Chapter 5, The X Window System + + Describes the X Window System in general and using + XFree86 on FreeBSD in particular. Also describes common + desktop environments such as KDE and GNOME. + + + + Chapter 6, Configuration and Tuning + + Describes the parameters available for system + administrators to tune a FreeBSD system for optimum + performance. Also describes the various configuration files + used in FreeBSD and where to find them. + + + + Chapter 7, Booting Process + + Describes the FreeBSD boot process and explains + how to control this process with configuration options. + + + + Chapter 8, Users and Basic Account + Management + + Describes the creation and manipulation of user + accounts. Also discusses resource limitations that can be + set on users and other account management tasks. + + + + Chapter 9, Configuring the FreeBSD + Kernel + + Explains why you might need to configure a new kernel + and provides detailed instructions for configuring, building, + and installing a custom kernel. + + + + Chapter 10, Security + + Describes many different tools available to help keep your + FreeBSD system secure, including Kerberos, IPsec, OpenSSH, and + network firewalls. + + + + Chapter 11, Printing + + Describes managing printers on FreeBSD, including + information about banner pages, printer accounting, and + initial setup. + + + + Chapter 12, Storage + + Describes how to manage storage media and filesystems + with FreeBSD. This includes physical disks, RAID arrays, + optical and tape media, memory-backed disks, and network + filesystems. + + + + Chapter 13, Localization + + Describes how to use FreeBSD in languages other than + English. Covers both system and application level + localization. + + + + Chapter 14, Sound + + Shows how to setup sound support for your system. Also + describes some sample audio applications. + + + + Chapter 15, Serial Communications + + Explains how to connect terminals and modems to your + FreeBSD system for both dial in and dial out connections. + + + + Chapter 16, PPP and SLIP + + Describes how to use PPP, SLIP, or PPP over Ethernet to + connect to remote systems with FreeBSD. + + + + Chapter 17, Advanced Networking + + Describes many networking topics, including sharing an + Internet connection with other computers on your LAN, using + network filesystems, sharing account information via NIS, + setting up a name server, and much more. + + + + Chapter 18, Electronic Mail + + Explains the different components of an email server and + dives into simple configuration topics for the most popular + mail server software: + sendmail. + + + + Chapter 19, The Cutting Edge + + Explains the differences between FreeBSD-STABLE, + FreeBSD-CURRENT, and FreeBSD releases. Describes which users + would benefit from tracking a development system and outlines + that process. + + + + Chapter 20, Linux Binary Compatibility + + Describes the Linux compatibility features of FreeBSD. + Also provides detailed installation instructions for many + popular Linux applications such as Oracle, SAP/R3, and + Mathematica. + + + + Appendix A, Obtaining FreeBSD + + Lists different sources for obtaining FreeBSD media on CDROM + or DVD as well as different sites on the Internet that allow + you to download and install FreeBSD. + + + + Appendix B, Bibliography + + This book touches on many different subjects that may + leave you hungry for a more detailed explanation. The + bibliography lists many excellent books that are referenced in + the text. + + + + Appendix C, Resources on the Internet + + Describes the many forums available for FreeBSD users to + post questions and engage in technical conversations about + FreeBSD. + + + + Appendix D, PGP Keys + + Lists the PGP fingerprints of several FreeBSD Developers. + + + + + Conventions used + in this book + + To provide a consistent and easy to read text, several + conventions are followed throughout the book. + + Typographic + Conventions + + + + Italic + + An italic font is used for filenames, URLs, + emphasized text, and the first usage of technical terms. + + + + Monospace + + A monospaced font is + used for error messages, commands, environment variables, + names of ports, hostnames, user names, group names, device + names, variables, and code fragments. + + + + Bold + + A bold font is used for + applications, commands, and keys. + + + + + + User Input + + Keys are rendered in bold to stand out from + other text. Key combinations that are meant to be typed + simultaneously are rendered with `+' between + the keys, such as: + + + + Ctrl + Alt + Del + + + + Keys that are meant to be typed in sequence will be separated with + commas, for example: + + + + Ctrl + X + , + + Ctrl + S + + + + Would mean that the user is expected to type the + Ctrl and X keys simultaneously + and then to type the Ctrl and S + keys simultaneously. + + + Examples + + Examples starting with E:\> + indicate a MS-DOS command. Unless otherwise noted, these commands + may be executed from a Command Prompt window in a modern Microsoft + Windows environment. + + E:\> tools\fdimage floppies\kern.flp A: + + Examples starting with &prompt.root; indicate a command that + must be invoked as the superuser in FreeBSD. You can login as + root to type the command, or login as your + normal account and use &man.su.1; to gain + superuser privileges. + + &prompt.root; dd if=kern.flp of=/dev/fd0 + + Examples starting with &prompt.user; indicate a command that + should be invoked from a normal user account. Unless otherwise + noted, C-shell syntax is used for setting environment variables + and other shell commands. + + &prompt.user; top + + Acknowledgments + + The book you are holding represents the efforts of many hundreds of + people around the world. Whether they sent in fixes for typos, or + submitted complete chapters, all the contributions have been + useful. + + Several companies have supported the development of this + document by paying authors to work on it full-time, paying for + publication, etc. In particular, BSDi (subsequently acquired by + Wind River Systems) + paid members of the FreeBSD Documentation Project to work on + improving this book full time leading up to the publication of the + first printed edition in March 2000 (ISBN 1-57176-241-8). Wind + River Systems then paid several additional authors to make a + number of improvements to the print-output infrastructure and to add + additional chapters to the text. This work culminated in the + publication of the second printed edition in November 2001 (ISBN + 1-57176-303-1). + + + +
