Like many post, just let me restate that I am new to the linux field. Yes i have successfully done setup a daul boot windows & Linux box, but that small cookies. I want to pratice using linux more. I'm bored with the windows interface and want a challenge. I obtain Mandrake 10.1 distro and would like to configure it to access the internet.

Does anyone have information on what books or website i can look into for help. Also i wouldl like to take a unix course. Should i, and how important is UNIX to the IT field?

I'm open to all suggestions and replys.

The best thing for challenging the linux operating system with a familiar environment to land on is Ubuntu. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

Also what has become sort of the Official-unofficial documentation site for linux, is TLDP.org .
