i second this recommendation whole heartedly. i've never seen a more gentle
introduction to networking.
i believe there's a "nag-2", that was just released within the past year.
people were complaining that the NAG, although extremely well written, was a
bit out of date. nothing too major. eg, 8 years ago, perhaps most readers
WOULD be interested in UUCP. most people prolly don't even know what UUCP
stands for... anyway, they belabor uucp a bit too long in nag 1 (i assume
this is the kind of change in nag 2. haven't seen it myself).
it also has the benefit of not being paifully slow. moves at a brisque pace,
and is easy to comprehend. the authors did a great job. (you can buy it
from o'reilly as well as download a free copy).
