    Recommended Ubuntu Server Reading

    Hello All - my first post so be kind

    I am a Windows man traditionally and making the journey into the LAMP world, so far I have been spending most of my recent months in the AMP area, and have now leased a dedicated server running Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS.

    Spent the last 4 days finding my way round, luckily Unbuntu and the LAMP software I want to use is already pre configured.

    My background at work is purely Microsoft.

    I have ordered "The Official Ubuntu Book" so I can learn at a steady pace and obviously been Googling and picking up snippets where I have needed.

    Although before my book arrives I wanted to do some reading from the WWW.

    Has anyone got any recommended links to some good Unbuntu reading that can give me a step by step guide to common administration and configuration tasks that I should and need to understand before I start making all the common Newbie errors and leading myself into a pit of frustration?

    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the forums!

    I'm not sure if any of these will be Ubuntu related, but they are Linux related:

    Thanks for some cracking links.

    They will keep me busy and are just what I was after.
