You can read it on your own machine off-line:

$ sudo apt-get install ubuntu-serverguide

it's in html format. So to view, place the following in to the url bar
of your browser (and bookmark):
/usr/share/ubuntu-serverguide/html/C/index.html

I think that some folks were working on making a pdf available in
January, but I've not found/seen one yet. Ref:
<https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2009-January/012354.html>

If you feel like experimenting, you can install htmldoc (it's in
Synaptic - or '$ sudo apt-get install htmldoc') and try converting to
pdf. Userguide is here:
<http://www.htmldoc.org/documentation.php/toc.html> Disclaimer: I've not
tried this (yet).
