Second you could start with these links: http://www.linux.org/docs/online_books.html http://www.infosyssec.net/infosyssec/linux2.htm These have Linux books but also other computer books online: http://www.freetechbooks.com/ http://groups.msn.com/TheCompleteCom...inuxbooks.msnw Good luck if you have any further questions we will be here. __________________ Long live the revolution!

It is a small pocket size book that has essential commands in it and it is only ten dollars a must for a linux newbie trying to learn the command line. http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linuxpg/ __________________ If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane--Jimmy Buffett Registered Linux user # 376962

True- But look carefully at the most recent update info for the book. Unfortunately a lot of which is just hitting the mass market is sadly outdated.
IMHO you would probably be better served by the online publications as referenced earlier in this topic and/or WIKI sites if one is available.
Hope this helps.
