As opposed to "Complete FreeBsd" which imo is more advanced but still mandatory - esp. the networking chapter(s) in "Complete", esp. the example network diagram. I can't discriminate. When I took calculus I used five books. Each book had different examples and permutations, the more real world examples I saw the more it sunk in. >===== Original Message From Scott ===== >On 21:42 2001/12/01 -0500, leegold wrote >>I really like the attempt to simplify FreeBSD. >>I am learning a lot from this book.
