I just latched on to a series from IDG books. Titles include "Linux Configuration Installation", "Linux Network" , "Linux System Administration" "Linux Internet Server". They are well written, very informative, don't assume too much and come with Slackware, while there may be some differences between Mandrake and Slackware I have found the general background to be excellent. I found mine at Micro Center but I'm sure they're avail on the "net".
