Perfect for absolute beginners and experienced users and server admins alike, this book explains the ins-and-outs of installing, configuring, maintaining, optimizing, and using Ubuntu systems.

This edition builds on the user-centric approach used by previous editions, showing you exactly how to perform common and essential tasks, like interfacing with popular IoT devices. The book covers:

The Ubuntu Linux Bible is intuitively organized, allowing you to skip quickly to the section you need in the moment. It also covers the latest version of the popular Linux distribution - v24.04 at the time of writing - as well as the previous version. You'll also find:

* Complete coverage of the enterprise and network functionality offered by Ubuntu, like web servers, networked file sharing, and DHCP and DNS management

* Up-to-date explanations of desktop Ubuntu configuration, including user management, system backups, printer and device management, and wireless features
