Can you help me to feel at home at this BSD. I need a knowledge on the administrational like: - how to configure a printer, user account, (what is the equivalent for sysadmsh, and scosh) - configuring, NFS, network card, TCP/IP, (what is the netconfig equivalent) - how to configure PPP dial out to internet provider - configure web server for CERN map, creating a script for CGI, stuffs like that - configure as router for my lan workstation so they can dial out to internet - configure X - and many more I wonder if I should learn from email support for all this or maybe I can read some good books, and what are they? What is the email address for asking such support questions, I think this questions@FreeBSD.ORG only for general questions (or it is not? please tell me) I am very interested with this FreeBSD, I hope this software can be more popular in the future like linux. I myself is a DOS c programmer, but DOS is not designed to run several programs act as server. So when I can feel at home with this OS I hope I can use it for my developing platform for more commercial applications. I want to try this becouse they said it is stable. I hope you can help me, thanks and best regards Iwan L
