UNIX REFERENCES & BOOKS:
And if you are new to Unix and would like a great reference to all the
basic utilities, get a copy of O'Reillys "Unix in a Nutshell", a great (and
inexpensive) reference book.

Slackware's dead.
Red Hat and Debian are the two most popular releases this week. Sloth is
running Debian, and I'm pretty impressed with it. Red Hat is probably
more popular, but Debian is gaining.

There are also several companies that sell pre-packaged Linux server
solutions. Take a look at Infomagic's Workgroup Server at
http://www.infomagic.com/infomagic/wgs.html. I've never used it, but it's
based on Red Hat's Linux distribution, and it's designed (and marketed) as
a commercial server solution. Caldera (http://www.caldera.com) has some
information on their web page about their upcoming "Caldera Open Linux
Server," which will include complete Netware support, including support
for NDS.

This may be of interest to some of you... Caldera, Inc, the maker
of the RedHat distribution of Linux, bought Novell DOS 7 (formerly
DR-DOS, a clone of MS-DOS) and is licensing it freely for educational
use. It includes a NetWare client and the Personal NetWare peer server,
multitasking, and source code (soon).
