'Setting up a Web Server is NOT a detailed step-by-step guide on how to set up a web server as it's title might suggest. Whilst 'Setting up a Web Server' provides a good overview on some of the features that make up a web server, the way the material is presented leaves something to be desired. If you don't already have at least some idea of what each of the topics being presented are about, this book will not help you understand them conceptually.'
