Hi Kelvyn, It is hard to advise you without knowing your level. (I think I am quite a novice but some others might think my level is quite high)
I think it would be helpful if you tell us what you do know / can do.

I have been purchasing books : Red Hat Linux Server 6 Unix Made Easy MS-DOS 6.2 Database Management Systems DOS Power Tools etc,etc The point is (although I'm almost 50) I want to learn, but I've never been the smartest guy on the block so I need simple instructions. I'm trying not to make this a long email but please let me explain: When I first started with a computer I naturally wanted to learn html. Many tutorials started with "open your favourite text editor". Immediately I was lost, "whats a text editor?". Finally I found a tutorial that said " if you dont know what a text editor is go to: start/programs/accessories/notepad". I don't need anything on the internet yet, but I do want to learn how to set up web servers, mail servers etc and Red Hat Linux Server 6 overlooks the basics. If anyone can point me in the right direction with a book/books that dont overlook the basics or can recommend classes or is prepared to teach me at a reasonable fee please help. Regards Kelvyn
