The returned output lines from the earlier diff command tell you several things about the state of the two locations. The first line says that the hosts.conf file only resides in the date-etc backup directory,..."so at some point someone decided to change the directory from 'etc2' to 'date-etc', but only in the command (not in the output).I've owned this book for a while now, and haven't had a lot of time to dedicate to it. There have been several times I've contemplated writing a review but hadn't. What really gets me is that the publisher's website only has 2 corrections listed for this book -- none of which I've encountered so far. I bet I've encountered more than 30 errors/inconsistencies so far.In fairness, had I bought this book first and then bought the McGraw-Hill book, I'd probably be writing a similar review on that one.Truthfully, I don't know which book is more of a disappointment. I wish Darril Gibson and his team (who writes CompTIA Security+ Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-501 Study Guide) published a Linux+ book. The quality of those books are on a different level. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comprehenvise and targeted to exam objectives but... *by S***X on Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2021* Comprehensive and targeted specifically for CompTIA's XK-004 exam objectives. I really haven't found any major problems except for Pearson's Test Prep software. You need the Portable Command Guide by William Rothwell in order to properly answer the questions on the test prep. I have come across a couple of errors or typos with specific Q&As and reported it but Pearson is slow in responding and updating obvious typo or error q&a content; replying back with canned "We have forwarded this to the author but it may be a while..." and I'm just thinking "You can see the typo if you actually read the Q&A I reported." ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read if taking the test. *by G***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2020* I am just getting into Linux and got this book and found it to be a little more advance then what I was needing. Had to get another book for beginners to get my base knowledge started. I will return back to this book at a later date. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/112767362-comptia-linux-xk0-004-cert-guide-certification-guide](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/112767362-comptia-linux-xk0-004-cert-guide-certification-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
