\chapter{System Administration}\label{chap-sysadm}
\label{chap-sysadm-num}

This chapter is an overview to Linux system administration, including a
number of advanced features which aren't necessarily for system administrators
only. Just as every dog has its day, every system has its
administrator, and running the system is a very important and sometimes
time-consuming job, even if you're the only user on your system.

	We have tried to cover here the most important things about system 
	administration you need to know when you use Linux,
	in sufficient detail to get you comfortably started.  In order
	to keep it short and sweet, we have only covered the very
	basics, and have skipped many an important detail. You 
	should read the {\em Linux System Administrator's Guide} if
	you are serious about running Linux.  It will help you
	understand better how things work, and how they hang together.
	At least skim through it so that you know what it contains and
	know what kind of help you can expect from it.
