I don't know too much about networking (read: I can get two computers to
talk, I just don't know what they're saying). Is there some place on the
web where I could learn a bit about things like this? I'm sure there's
books out there on this subject, and I know I'll be taking a class on it
sooner or later, I'd just like to know now :>
TIA
