I found the book Ubuntu Linux Toolbox to be useful: http://www.amazon.com/Ubuntu-Linux-Toolbox-Commands-Debian/dp/0470082933 Amazon is selling it for a whopping $16. The also make a version of the book for Fedora and Suse. It mostly covers the command line, but talks about package management, backups, networking, and more. -Chris Nick Scholtes wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm looking for a website or book aimed at beginning hackers for > Linux.
