you might find this worth a look:

Excellent! Thanks for the resource, Wes.

cool, glad it helps.

for the record, the debian-reference manual can be installed locally
with

 $ sudo apt-get install debian-reference-en

or, if your japanese/french/italian/portuguese is better than your
english, in wheezy you have these alternatives:

 debian-reference-ja
 debian-reference-fr
 debian-reference-it
 debian-reference-pt

or collect them all with

 $ sudo apt-get install debian-reference

after installing any of them, do

 $ debian-reference

to start reading.

the blurb:

[The] Debian Reference is intended to provide a broad overview of
Debian system administration as a post-installation user guide.

The target reader is someone who is willing to learn shell scripts
but who is not ready to read all the C sources to figure out how the
GNU/Linux system works.
