I just got FreeBSD running on a 486 system and like what
I see so far with it. So I want to hack with it over the next
few weeks, but find it difficult to do anything with it other
than get it installed, create a few users and start logging
in, send & receiving mail and just looking over the file system
and man pages.

I should add here that I am a LAN Admin for a large financial
firm and work a great deal with Novell NetWare, Windows NT,
Windows 95 networks and workstations, but haven't had much
exposure to Unix. And the docs I found to date on FreeBSD
have been a little over my head at the level I am currently at 
with the OS.

Can someone tell me where I can find some very basic things
like how to get the modem back on line after the FTP install
session has hung up? Other more complex but beginning stuff
would be helpful.
