[TriLUG] Book recommndation for newbie

[Bryan Kelly]

personally, i think the best docs are on the net. The NAG and SAG 
(network administrator guide, system administrator guide) and all the 
docs stuffed on your cd coupled with a few searches on google should 
solve almost any need. The O'reilly's  linux books are pretty good too, 
if you really like paper.
