Two books I turn to mostly:
UNIX System Administration handbook 3rd edition by Evi Nemeth et al. - a good general coverage, which breaks down the differences between how Redhat, Solaris, HP-UX, and FreeBSD handle things.
O'reilly Unix in a Nutshell (3rd edition) - a little Solaris-centric, but good for reviewing commands in paper form, and a handy little resource for when I forget sed and awk syntax.

Hi all,
I would very much appreciate any suggestions on any online resources, or even a decent book to purchase with the focus of brushing up on Linux command line tools. The focus is on troubleshooting type commands, adding users from command line and so forth.
While I am reasonably comfortable using the command line, I will be the first to admit I am slow on some things and have gaps in my knowledge especially for those commands I have never needed to use. I tend to use Webmin for a lot of things. For an upcoming job transition I need to fill in the gaps to be able to do these same things I currently do via webmin at the command line.
So any suggestions/pointers, etc would be very much appreciated. I wonder if there is a Linux for Dummies book out there (provided it deals with the command line vs. a GUI).
Thanks
