Acknowledgments

A special acknowledgment goes to the people at Red Hat, Inc. and members of the Fedora Project. In particular, Paul Frields (Fedora Project leader), Max Spevack (outgoing Fedora Project leader) and Greg DeKoenigsberg (Fedora Community leader) deserve praise for their leadership in producing a consistently high-quality Linux distribution. Special thanks to Pete Hnath (my new boss at Red Hat) for allowing me to complete my work on this book after hiring me to be an instructor at Red Hat.

Eric Foster-Johnson continues to be a major contributor to the new content in this book. I feel very fortunate to have someone as skillful as Eric as partner with me on this book that I have put so much effort into in the past decade.

At Wiley, I'd like to thank Jenny Watson, Ashley Zurcher, and Laura Moss-Hollister for helping work out issues related to the publicity, media, and covers for this book. Thanks to Sara Shlaer for her continued great editing and production work on this book, and for keeping me on schedule so we could bring this book to you on time.

Thanks to Daniel Scribner for shepherding the book through the final stages of production. Rob Shimonski provided a thorough technical editing pass. Thanks also to Margot Maley Hutchison and the others at Waterside Productions for bringing me this project.

Thanks, as always, to my dear family for helping me through this project.

Finally, a special thanks goes to those of you who bought this and earlier editions of Red Hat Linux Bible ...
