Just make sure you understand the diferences between system V and BSD. It would probably be in your best intrest to learn FreeBSD before any other unix OS. Since a lot of ISP's (ex. USWest, etc.) use FreeBSD. Get "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey (the author is often found on this mailing list), as well as a book like "Unix Secrets" and "Uinx in a Nutshell". The fact that you have an MCSE proves your not a moron, so you will catch on fast. Just read the books and you will be fine. -cosmic-665 >Hello my name is Caleb Walker I am trying to learn the UNIX operating >system right now. I am a Windows NT Network Engineer in California.
