First, I would get the Unix Systems Administrator's Handbook (the latest 
one is purple, I've heard it referred to as "The Barney Book").  Linux & 
Unix are almost the same, and it's one of the better books out there.   
The other book I used in my early learning was "Mastering Linux Premium 
Edition," a Sybex book.  Others will probably have other recommendations, 
as well.

I would also recommend setting up a small network at home (2 cheap 
computers to start with) where you can play around with the stuff.  
There's nothing like doing it to make you understand.

Thought for today:  vgrep /vee'grep/ v.,n. 

 Visual grep.  The operation of
   finding patterns in a file optically rather than digitally (also
   called an `optical grep').  See grep; compare vdiff.
