Books about FreeBSD

[mrclint]

Hello,
I am looking for books to get a deeper knowledge of FreeBSD and FreeNAS.
If you have come across a book that you found really useful, please let me know.

I have one book, but I am looking for one that is describing the system at a basic level for beginners.

BSD UNIX Toolbox: 1000+ Commands for FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD Power Users
by Christopher Negus, Francois Caen

You can start with the freebsd and freenas handbooks. :)

I've also found Dru's book "BSD Hacks"o be useful. Some material is dated, but that's true for any book.

And don't forget, pretty much anything by Michael W. Lucas.

Yes, you are right @anodos, the online handbooks for FreeBSD and FreeNAS are great.
But sometimes a book can come in handy, even if it is dated as you say.
