Does anyone know of a book on Red Hat Linux 7? I have Linux 7
installed, but it seems to be just different enough from 6 that the step
by step instructions (yes, I am new to Linux) for 6 are not enough to
get me going. I think the easy way out is to buy the high priced

If you're truly a newbie to linux, I would recommend starting with Mandrake,
which is a derivative of Red Hat. It is supereasy to install and use. It
is almost as easy as a Windows 98 install.
You could do the network install, burn ISOs or buy the retail version (I
recommend the last one).

umask tells the shell what the default permissions will be for all files
created by the session. Perms = 777 (wide open) - umask
For example, the most common umask on linux right now seems to be 022.
When a use logs in with a umask of 022, all files created by that user
will have 755 as their

A nice flag to umask is -S

screens.
However, it lacks a lot of basic functionality and things like kernel >
2.2.15, X3.3.6, KDE2 as it is based on Debian slink (slink == OLD).
There is also no network install option, you have to either burn an ISO or
Yes, I had chosen a few O'Reilly books- especially ones on learning Linux,
and one on learning networking for beginners... but are the Idiot/Dummy
