   I'll second the plug for the "Unix System Administration Handbook", or
the "Barney Book" as some have taken to calling it.  For those who haven't
seen it, the prominent color of the cover is best described as children's
dinosaur purple.  It officially covers Red Hat Linux, FreeBSD, HP-UX, and
Solaris, and what you end up with is a good general feeling of how
Unix-like systems should work.  Worth at least one complete reading, and 
handy to have as a reference.
   You'll also want to spend a LOT of time at linuxdoc.org, or one of its 
mirrors (http://www.nexttime.com/LDP/).  You'll find the HOWTO section 
most helpful for specific tasks, and the Guides section contains online 
versions of several book length works.

It is true that if your paperboy throws your paper into the bushes for five
straight days it can be explained by Newton's Law of Gravity.  But it takes
Murphy's law to explain why it is happening to you.
