Myself, I've always liked the Unix System Administration Handbook, by Nemeth, Snyder & Seebass. I noticed new edition recently came out to cover Linux, and it has cute cartoons. :-) I'm also looking for a book, a late Xmas gift for my dad who's been getting into Linux. I'm confident he has enough newbie literature to help him when I'm not around (I last recommended Thinking Unix to him), so I thought a book about the free software culture would be good for him now. Wasn't a book about the history of free software reviewed on /. a few months ago? thanks, ben [EMAIL PROTECTED] / http://www.dhp.com/~mithras 716-586-0020 work, 716-256-2484 home, 716-233-3159 cell 174 Henrietta St. #2 / Rochester, NY 14620
