64. The Second Edition Of Zen And The Art Of The Internet Is Available
The pertinent info is Title Zen and the Art of the Internet A Beginner s Guide,Second Edition Author Brendan P. Kehoe ISBN 013-010778-6 Price $22.00
http://ftp2.de.freebsd.org/pub/doc/zen/Second-Edition
The Second Edition of Zen and the Art of the Internet is available from Prentice Hall. It's grown approximately 30 pages from the First Edition, and features hundreds of changes, revisions, and additions. It's in paper form (not hard-cover). Opened by a Foreword by Edward Vielmetti, VP of Research for MSEN, the second edition of Zen is (if I do say so myself) a vast improvement over the First. It's cleaner, more professionally composed, and far more complete than its predecessor. Also, many, many errors and omissions were fixed. A number of suggestions from the net community itself (like mentioning Hytelnet, including an appendix giving the different ISO country codes, etc.) were encorporated, in the hope that it will be as useful as possible to you, the reader. The pertinent info is: Title: Zen and the Art of the Internet: A Beginner's Guide, Second Edition Author: Brendan P. Kehoe ISBN: 0-13-010778-6 Price: $22.00 There are bulk and college discounts available; the folks at Prentice Hall can direct you accordingly. You can call 800/223-1360. If you do plan on ordering many, I'd love to hear back from you, just so I can check with you this winter to see how your community received it.

    Zen and the Art of Internet (A Beginners Guide)
    Brendan P. Kehoe
    3rd ed., 1994, PTR Prentice Hall
    ISBN 0-13-121492-6
    Het Internet is op dit moment een populair item om over te schrijven. Niet alleen in kranten en tijdschriften, maar ook uitgevers overladen de consument met boeken over "the Net". De meeste van deze boeken presenteren zich als een simpele beginnershandleiding over het Internet die bedoeld is voor mensen die de eerste stappen willen gaan zetten in de grote boze Internet-wereld. Tot deze categorie behoort ook het boek "Zen and the art of Internet (A Beginners Guide)". Het boek is in een handzaam pocketformaat uitgevoerd en heeft 193 bladzijden, waarvan de laatste 70 bezet worden door allerlei lijsten (appendices), dus het boekje is in een avondje doorgewerkt. De schrijver, Brendan P. Kehoe, is zelf een systeembeheerder en is in de eerste plaats begonnen het boek te schrijven als antwoord op de vele onnozele vragen die hij kreeg op z'n werk. Dat de schrijver systeembeheerder is, is meteen te merken in hoofdstuk 1 (Network Basics). Er vliegen dan toch wel wat technische termen om de oren. Als dagelijkse Unix gebruiker kan ik daar wel tegen, maar volgens mij is dit boek toch meer bedoeld voor mensen die een iets minder technische achtergrond hebben. Na het eerste hoofdstuk worden vervolgens verschillende onderdelen van het Internet in afzonderlijke hoofdstukken uitgelegd. Deze onderdelen zijn respectievelijk e-mail, ftp, news en telnet. Al deze onderdelen worden goed besproken, met simpele voorbeelden erbij, zodat het volgens mij wel duidelijk moet overkomen. Wat erg grappig is, is dat er continu zo'n systeembeheerders toontje in zit: wees voorzichtig met wat je doet, experimenteer niet en als je er niet uit komt raadpleeg dan je systeembeheerder. Dit komt af toe schoolmeesterachtig over, maar het kan geen kwaad om beginnende Internetters dit proberen duidelijk te maken. Wat ik vooral erg goed vind is dat er in de meeste hoofdstukken een stukje over netiquette wordt gesproken. Op een goede manier wordt uitgelegd wat wel en wat niet kan. Dat is iets wat in andere boeken vaak vergeten wordt te vertellen, terwijl dat volgens mij toch een belangrijk aspect is bij het leren werken met het Internet.

    [ILUG] packaging risks and the reputation of linux distributions
    From: Brendan Kehoe ( brendan at domain zen.org
    Date: Tue 08 Oct 2002 - 10:59:03 IST It occurs to me that all of the linux distributions (from here on, replace
    "linux" with "GNU/Linux" if you want), whether debian or redhat or whatever,
    seem to be making a big assumption that could bite them later.
    Right now we all run stuff as root to install packages, whether by way of RPM,
    APT, or whatever. We don't do anything (md5sum is still a number that could

    The unsaid portion of that bit in the article was that a large number of
    developers were rejected by E*TRADE because their investment goals and, more
    importantly, available income as indicated on the registration form didn't
    meet the minimum qualifications of what E*TRADE saw as requirements to open an
    account with them. Slashdot has a long discussion (I'm hesitant to label it a
    flame fest) about this in its archives. The clientele that E*TRADE strives to

    A review of -
    Zen and the Art of the Internet: a Beginner's Guide, second edition
    by Brendan P. Kehoe
    Prentice Hall, 1992. 112 pages Art and magic are the legacy of the early years of computing. Among programmers today, there's still respect even reverence for a neatly crafted bit of code or a novel mathematical algorithm. For many of the rest of us, though, the magic of MicroSoft Windows 3.1 and the gee-whiz features of Aldus Freehand either start out shabby or wear thin soon after the shrink wrap comes off the box. Brendan Kehoe has found a corner of computing internetworking, to be exact in which some of the old art and magic remain. What's Zen about it? I don't know. ("Good answer," says a man passing by in a saffron robe.) But Kehoe wraps us in the art and magic of the Internet in his slim book. First things first. What is the Internet? It's a network of networks. Fine; what's a network? It's a system of wires that connects computers to one another. Why do we connect computers? So they and their users can share information, printers, disks, and other resources. So then why do we connect networks? So your computer on your network and my computer on my network can communicate, regardless of where they are. How many computers are connected to the Internet? At last count, 900,000. By the time you read this it will be a million. Most of us start out using our local eddies in the wide, rushing Internet to connect from a desktop PC to a central mainframe computer somewhere near us. Maybe we use the mainframe for electronic mail. Maybe we use it to run software that we can't get for our desktop machines. There are lots of ways of connecting to a mainframe, and not all of them are related to the Internet. But if you use a program called Telnet to connect from your computer to another, chances are good you're on the Internet. You may not know it, but a variation of the Telnet command that connects you to the mainframe down the street can also connect you to a mainframe on the other side of the world!

    For nearly eight years, I worked for Cygnus Solutions, now part of RedHat , performing as a software engineer, manager of two development teams, voting member of the Standardization committee , and chair of the Performance Committee creating a technical report on the use of C++ in real time and embedded systems. Oh, and also everything possible in between. Nowadays I'm doing contracting work (C++, linux, perl, you name it), volunteer work setting up computer and networking facilities for schools, and try to spend lots of time writing. Since 1994, I've been maintaining a running catalog of web sites that pertain to information about, or for, children. After finishing the online first edition of my book Zen and the Art of the Internet , I published the second, third, and fourth editions of it with Prentice Hall . I have a list of the ISBNs of the different translations, if you're interested. You can find out about updates to it by writing to the email address guide-request@zen.org Another book in the Zen series, Children and the Internet: A Zen Guide for Parents and Educators , was completed in 1996.
