The best to avoid forgetting things is using them: forget about the X server, forget the GUI (don't install them), jump to the console and work for there. Anyway, I as an admin, don't pay much attention in remembering the exact commands and their related parameters (there's always the man page I can quickly query) but I'm more interested in learning and applying new computer concepts, good administering and managing techniques, I mean, I'm more interested in *what* is the best to do than *how* to do it, so for daily tasks I rely on Midnight Commander which helps me a lot with the usual sysadmin's workflow.
