Vickey,
I am also in the process of looking for no/low cost (non-profit, no
budget) training for myself and our two other staff, so I'm interested
to see what people recommend.
One option in addition to a good book that looks interesting is video
training at vtc.com. They have a $30 dollar a month plan which gives
access to all their videos, and most of the courses they have the first
couple of chapters free so you can take a look at them. They have
CompTia Network + and a couple of CCNA courses.
I looked at some of the free samples and they seem pretty good, but I
haven't purchased the subscription yet so I'm not sure how much detail
they go into. It may be worth a look.

Subject: OT: Advice... need a network book
As the IT staff for a small college (just me and one other full time
person in charge of distance ed support), I am the perfect example of
"jack of all trades, master of none". While I'm comfortable with my
skill level in regard to the servers and the workstations, I'm somewhat
lost when it comes to the network itself. By 'network' I mean
terminolgy, properly configuring the switches, the wireless network,
implementing a VLAN, etc.
Therr hasn't been any budget for attending any kind of training in some
time, so I'm looking for suggestions for good books to train myself.
Suggestions? Please?
Thanks in advance.
