I got the book, and followed the directions. I, and others, have pointed you to stuff, Viktor. You say you've not run a server in a while, and that "every OS is different." I'm assuming that means you ran Windows servers, and have not yet taken enough time to actually learn how *nix works (Chapter 2 of Frisch's book).
I assumed that he meant some other flavor of unix, since in several decades they have not managed to set and follow a standard for administration and the particular things in question vary wildly across them. But if you've only used Red Hat style systems - or maybe even SysV it might not be obvious how quirky they are.
