There has recently been talk of "The Unix System Administrators Handbook" by Neameth, Snyder, and Seabass, published by Prentice Hall. I don't know if they are incompetent or not, but this is not enough info for the people in our library to track it down. They have found 2 book, "T~ U~ S~ A~ Reference" by AT&T staff, and "T~ U~ S~ A~ Guide", also by AT&T staff. Is it one of these I am hunting, or a third book. Please send more info, the best of which would be a library of congress, or other catalog number we could use to narrow down the pack. Thanks, Don

First of all, I have met Evi, taken classes taught by her, and know that she is very competent. As for the others, I have not met, but knowing Evi and the company she keeps, they would rank right up there with her.

Was I right? Well, after reading your article and a couple of letters sent to me, and re-reading the original article, this time while bright-eyed and bushy- tailed in the morning, instead of after 13 hours of work, I must whole- heartedly agree with you. Although I am a bit embarrassed at my mis-interpretation of the possibly incompetent "they", I must, however, stay by my comments, but, of course, do not have the slightest notion of the competency of the staff in Mr. McLachlan's library.;-) As a side note, I have generally found that the local bookstores (even the campus bookstore) have been much better in finding recEntly published books for me than the library. If I then wish for the library to consider ordering the book, I then take the collected information to them. This can ususally be done via phone. -- Thanks, Steve. sfreed@ariel.unm.edu
