Hello,

I recently switched to linux because I was curious what else was out there and was very annoyed with windows's mismanaged multitasking. So I went and bought Slackware after trying knoppix for a short while. I know Slack is sometimes not recommended for newbies, but I think it is the best way to learn linux because it really forced me to learn new things.

My question: Can you recommend any books that deal more with networking, I am having troubles trying to set up a Samba server? I also want to be able to set up Apache and BIND? OH, and one more, does anyone have a good text on using a good linux server to serve a lot of thin clients?

thanks for your time

While you are visiting www.tldp.org, you might also want to check out the mock mini-mainframe howto. I think it will have some good info in it for you in reference to running the thin clients.
