Hello Michael,
Interesting that you are in OK and decided to join SLUG. Must mean that
we are pretty savvy, Huh? :-)
Now, lissen up !! Go on line and google for the RUTE tutorial by Paul
Sheen. Download it, either html or pdf. (about 3 mb) Read it ! It will
take you many many hours. It will give you every basic and most
advanced features of Linux. There is nothing more basic and advanced
than this tutorial. After you have digested this, and that will take
some doing, It will be the best reference you will need. It has resided
on my computer for several years and remains the best reference I have.
Have fun, and welcome to our very special SLUG group.
Bob S.
