Reviews for SSH, The Secure Shell

Still the best SSH book out there by a long shot, but too much on Tectia and not enough on OpenSSH 4. - Paul Hudson, Linux Format, October 2005 The authors manage to convey what SSH is all about as a concept and how to use it in the real world with equal aplomb, and highly technical configuration details are explained with clarity. They are happy to related how to integrate SSH into non-Unix clients, which makes a pleasant change from the typical Unix gurus who write books such as this. Whenever with see the words definitive guide' included in the title of a book, we usually prepare ourselves for something far from it. The exception being when O'Reilly are the publishers, and this SSH guide is certainly as definitive as any you are likely to read. And read it you should if you are seriously involved with network security. Davey Winder, PC Plus, November 2005
