I don't know that book, but I'll check that out sometime.  I have a 
couple of books I bought for the JC intro to UNIX course I took last 
semester: 'Linux in a Nutshell' and 'A Practical Guide to Linux', by 
Sobel. I refer to them fairly often.

My problem is that I'm not *exactly* new to linux, I've been running it 
as my main machine and using it for school for over a year and I now 
know enough to really muck things up.  It's almost more frustrating than 
total ignorance.  Most of the time, though it's been a fun process.
