Checking my copy (fourth edition reprinted 1995 - 1998) I see what you
mean.. For stuff like DNS, TCP/IP its a very nice book (a perfect
partner for the Programming TCP/IP books with the devil on the cover).
Sorry to AOL - but me too..
I'm also looking for a decent book on webservices that provides that
kind of detail - everything I have seen assumes .Net and/or Java
rather than Perl or C++ and only covers their specific API's rather
than how it actually works.
Cheers,
A
