Run Your Own Linux and Apache Web Server - SitePoint's latest release

"Run Your Own Web Server Using Linux & Apache"...and SitePoint!

SitePoint Pty. Ltd. (sitepoint.com), provider of fun, practical and
easy-to-understand content for Web professionals, today announced the
release of "Run Your Own Web Server Using Linux & Apache"
collaboration between seasoned developers Stuart Langridge and Tony
Steidler-Dennison.

"If you plan to compete with the big players, your site must be up and
running all the time--it can't be allowed to suffer the potential
security and performance problems that arise when you're trying to debug
live scripts," commented Tony Steidler-Dennison, co-author of the book.
"This book is the developer's key to maintaining a professional site,
while optimizing its performance."

No prior experience with Linux is expected by the book's authors.

"Run Your Own Web Server Using Linux & Apache" deftly guides readers
through the installation of Linux and Apache onto a development server
before explaining how to master common server admin tasks and,
importantly, how to secure their servers using a firewall and intrusion
detection system.

Readers also learn how to manipulate server settings for maximum
performance through the management of traffic reporting, log-file
rotation and more.

"This is the how-to book I wish I had when I started with Apache on
Linux," commented Stephen Pierzchala, Chief Performance Evangelist for
WebPerformance, and technical editor for "Run Your Own Web Server Using
Linux & Apache." "This book will give the novice a deeper understanding
of the system as a whole, and the tools to make things run smoothly."

"Managing your own server puts you in control," added Tony
Steidler-Dennison, "and can potentially save you thousands each year. If
your focus is on constant optimization and ultimate professionalism,
managing your own development server is a must. This book will teach you
how to do it right."
