Can someone please suggest some good books that can help him to learn Linux System Administration faster .. (BTW, he is not a total newbie to the Linux world) Thanks a lot in advance.
1. "Essential System Administration" by Aeleen (sp.?) Frisch
2. "TCP/IP Network Administration" by Craig Hunt
3. "Learning Perl", by Randal Schwartz (useful for NT sys admins too, since there is a Perl port to Windows)
4. "Sed and Awk" by <don't remember correctly, but probably Arnold Robbins>
These are all published by O'Reilly and are available in inexpensive Indian editions.
5. "The UNIX Programming Environment" by Kernighan & Pike, Prentice-Hall India - a classic! Teaches scripting in detail - was my first UNIX book, as a matter of fact.
6. man bash, man grep, man awk, man sed
7. info gawk, info sed
8. http://linuxdoc.org - check the SAG, NAG, HOWTO's etc.
9. man/ perldoc perl - will provide a complete listing of online perl documentation
HTH,
Krishnan
