RE: Good Linux Book For Christmas
I usually get flamed for saying this BUT, buy him a book on UNIX. Learn how it
is supposed to be done from that. The linux specific docs included with a
package will help span any gaps. This way if he is confronted with another OS
at work or some where else, he has a better idea of where to start. Besides
most Linux centric books are either out of date or tell you how to use Red
Hat's supplied program to configure it.
