Hello!

I'm obviously interested in UNIX or I wouldn't have subscribed to this list. 
  Having said that, it appears I am in 'over my head!'  You folks have 
forgotten more than I will ever know, I think.

Question:  Having only a very rudimentary (One unfinished COBOL programming 
class in 1979)knowledge of programming, and only a bit less knowledge of 
operating systems, I'd like to know where to begin.  I think starting with 
UNIX might be a mistake...?  My sons are both technicians/sysadmins, but 
because I'm 'mom,' they don't think I'm serious about learning.

I'd like to learn UNIX because I want to work on back-end internet /intranet 
support and this knowledge is necessary.  Any help will be much appreciated.

Warmly,
Melody Akins
