One book that I'd highly recommend for you is 'Essential System Administration' by Aeleen Frisch. It's in the same series of books as your TCP/IP book, but focuses on system administration instead of network administration. I don't know of any currently available books that discuss installing FreeBSD, but Walnut Creek CD-ROM will be publishing one soon called 'Installing and Running FreeBSD' by Greg Lehey (grog@ora.com). I've only seen the table of contents, but it looks like it would be very useful to you. The latest version of the book is available as a postscript file at ftp://freefall.FreeBSD.org/incoming/book.ps.gz Dave ========================================================================== David Walton Unix Programmer PSI INTERNATIONAL, Inc. email: dwalton@psiint.com 190 South Orchard #C200 Fax :(707)451-6484 Vacaville, CA 95688 Phone:(707)451-3503 ==========================================================================
