DESCRIPTION:
"Good book, succinct" according to Gus Nelson. The filesystem ecosystem of FreeBSD is surprisingly diverse, and this book can help illuminate a usable portion of many of them. I liked the section on iSCSI especially since I've heard of it, people use it, but I've rarely configured it - at the CLI.The paper stock, print, and materials were of good quality. Apparently my copy had some extra glossiness to its fonts, which was a smidge distracting but it's a short read.
