Shah Ankur :

Ankur Shah has been working with Linux/AIX for last 4 years as a System Administrator. His previous assignment was with Packt Publishing, where he worked as System Administrator and also started implementing CUPS. He completed his graduation in Computer Engineering from Nagpur University, India. He is currently working as a SAP Basis Administrator and also started working on Governance Risk and Compliance for access Control. He is also interested in Oracle Database Administration and Security. He is the biggest fan of Kajol (a Bollywood actress) and dedicates this book to her. The day her movie releases is a day of celebration for him and he only parties once a year - 5th August - that's Kajol's birthday. It goes without saying that he watches all her movies several times - often dragging his friends and family to participate in his madness.
