Up until now in this manual, you have been reading very practical information. You should be able to efficiently configure your server and be happy with it by now.
However, all that is just a glimpse of your Mandrake Linux system's possibilities. In order to dig in a little deeper, we chose to add two chapters to complete your Mandrake Linux knowledge:
Chapter 10: this is a must read for any system administrator. Even though you can make your Mandrake Linux system quite secure with default tools, efficient security can only be achieved through active administration, taking care of both physical and logical global system security;
Chapter 11: a server is meant to bring services to a network. This manual would have been incomplete without a chapter dedicated to networking. The configuration of the network itself and the different protocols are tackled.
