Help! Basic Linux Introduction?

2003-10-21 Thread Benjamin J. Weiss
All,

I just got tasked with providing (by this afternoon!) a short primer on
linux, preferably RH 9.  I need something that a group of MIS Windows folks
can read in two evenings, such that I can then sit them down in front of RH
9 boxes and show them how to administer the basics.

I've found the RH 9 manuals on their site, and if I have to I will resort to
printing off various sections of them and putting them together, but I was
hoping for something a bit more coherent.  Basically, it should cover the
basic concepts and such.

I'm also looking at tldp.org.

Anybody have something like this laying around?

Thanks!

Ben

Honestly, for the task you have ahead of you, I can't imagine anything
more basic and to-the-point than Red Hat's documentation.  So far as
administering Red Hat Linux systems goes, it can't be beat.

You might check out the stuff at http://rute.sf.net/ - it's not RH
specific, but you might find some good stuff in there.  That's what we use
for new Linux training.
