4.3. Where to get some non-linux-specific network information. If you are after some basic tutorial information on tcp/ip networking generally, then I recommend you take a look at the following documents: tcp/ip introduction this document comes as both a text version <ftp://athos.rutgers.edu/runet/tcp-ip-intro.doc> and a postscript version <ftp://athos.rutgers.edu/runet/tcp-ip- intro.ps>. tcp/ip administration this document comes as both a text version <ftp://athos.rutgers.edu/runet/tcp-ip-admin.doc> and a postscript version <ftp://athos.rutgers.edu/runet/tcp-ip- admin.ps>. [15:38:05 /tmp]$ As you can see, this introductory texts, which is more then 10 years old, are suggested by the NET-3-HOWTO. Yet the postscript files are much tailored for a letter paper size so that they have very narrow right margin on an a4 paper size. IMHO it decrease their usability with a4 paper size by a large factor. Do you think that this is a sufficient reason to put an a4 postscript version on the net ? I think it does, but having no address of my own I need someone to take the a4 files I have made and host it on his site. Since the original docs are kept unchanged for more then 10 years, I think it is only a matter of put it on your ftp area and forget it.
