I just started with OS X on my workstation the other day. I've used Macs
for a long time, and Perl on unix servers for a long time too (and a bit
of MacPerl). I also used NeXTs once upon a time.
Now, I'm looking for a book or something about administrating OS X-- the
directory structure, how the root/administrator/user stuff works (I am
logged in as an administrator but how come I can't su and I don't know the
root password?), memory management, security, and I would like to get into
a little application development. Basically, I need to improve my
fundamental unix sysadmin skills and understand the way OS X works a
little better-- my old Mac knowledge of system folder, extensions and
preferences is not going to help much.
Can anyone recommend such resources? Apple's web site (where)? OS X
docs? Intro unix/linux documentation?
Thanks,
nathan
