Need some direction on linux

#1 Post by mefrmdelhi »

Hi guys,
I have just started exploring linux on Debian OS. Till now I was using windows Operating System. Now I came across with u know lots of shell commands like chmod, chown, chgrp, mount, umount etc.

Still I don't have much knowledge about the scope of linux/unix and areas where I should focus on. I am a J2EE programmer and I was just curious in exploring java technologies on it. But I think now I should go more into that beside just using java on it.

Can you guys give me some direction, some specific areas where I should concentrate more on. Any tutorial or stuff on it would be higly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

- Naseem

Please don't post in the docs forum, as it says, no support requests.

To really get good at Linux/Unix systems you really need to be good at the command line. There is a basic guide at http://linuxcommand.org and many more around the net.
