The main resource for FreeBSD is the Handbook and other documents at www.freebsd.org. There are also several books available on FreeBSD which you could probably order - _FreeBSD Unleashed_ or the soon-to-be-released _Absolute BSD: The Ultimate Guide to FreeBSD_ might be of interest, as might the _FreeBSD Corporate Networker's Guide_. There are no books (besides the Corporate Networker's Guide, perhaps) written about FreeBSD networking specifically, but standard books on UNIX networking should give you most of the details you need. The source code is also an invaluable resource, once the basics are understood. Unfortunately none of these resources, online or print, are in Urdu, but I suppose most people online these days speak English fairly well. However, anyone who felt like translating the docs could get involved with the doc team. -David -- Everyone who believes in telekinesis, raise my hand...
