French "Cahier de l'admin Debian Etch" published (Eyrolles)

Raphaël Hertzog's "Cahier de l'admin Debian", published in 2004, has
recently been updated.  Since it now covers the Etch version of
Debian, and has been expanded quite a bit, it has also been renamed to
"Cahier de l'admin Debian Etch", and is still published by Eyrolles.

This new book is more than just a new edition.  Of course, it has been
updated to fully describe everything that's new in Etch, while
pointing out the differences with Sarge.  But it has also gained two
whole new chapters: one on advanced administration (RAID, LVM,
automated installations through FAI and the Debian installer,
virtualisation, etc.), and one on security (firewall, IDS/NIDS,
SELinux, and a general approach to security).  A new appendix will
cater to the needs of people new to Unix-like computing, with a brief
crash-course on processes, filesystems, basic commands and so on.
Being updated and expanded, it was co-authored by Raphaël Hertzog and
Roland Mas, both long-time Debian developers.

More information on the book, including the table of contents, two
freely downloadable chapters, and a few goodies are available on the
book's website.
