		Hi Kevin,

> I'm looking for some places where I can learn Linux.

 Your distribution comes with a lot of documentation (see the documentation 
CD. If you only downloaded the install images you could just get the relevant 
rpm's by ftp. The whole documentation CD contains the same documents in many 
languages, so you save yourself some download time by picking the relevant 
language(s)). If you installed the howto rpm you should definitely have a look 
at the howto's in /usr/share/doc/HOWTO. Same is true for the FAQs.
 RedHat used to ship with the network- and system administrator guides (nag & 
sag). Not sure if they still do, otherwise you can find these documents at 
http://www.linuxdoc.org.
 If you are looking for paper books, the only one I know off is "Linux Network 
Servers" by Craig Hunt (Network Press/Sybex), which covers most basics of 
Linux system administration. Don't expect it to be very in depth though. I am 
also not sure if there has been an update since 1999. Things go fast in Linux 
land, so expect some parts not to be fully up to date. If you want a good 
book, the best thing to do is to go to your local computer book dealer and 
browse some books to see what fits your needs best.

					Bye,
