Short Topics in System Administration
The Short Topics in System Administration booklets provide information
not available elsewhere. Presenting topics in thorough, refereed
fashion, they are small enough and flexible enough to grow with the
community. They are living documents, which we update as needed.
SAGE is always interested in ideas and proposals for
booklets. Contact sagebooklets@sage.org.
