Linux System Administrator Mailing Lists

dcatiii · 03-03-2011, 07:46 PM

I was just curious, does any linux admins out there have any mailing lists that they subscribe to? I go to lots of sites for knowledge but i was trying to put together the double whammy and pull together a solid mailing list for linux admins as well.

If you have any, please add them to this thread!

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Simple Google gives these;

I believe each of you have access to a search engine.

While I appreciate the response (moderator) the simple google search was not what I was looking for. I was looking for lists that individuals "recommend" or have used and enjoy the community. Little bit of a "huge" difference there.

In response to your post marafa, I joined the spiceworks community... (don't know much about their product, but their support forums are excellent) beyond that I have just been google searching stuff. I use the linuxquestions forums alot, but I spend a lot of time at work and cannot freely search the net as much as I like... hence the reason I would love solid mailing lists.

The point is that there are loads of mail lists and individual choices would apply. I could throw out loads of links but that would be from MY perspective. You should know what interest you relative to admin and to arbitrarily request something of this sort you might get like minded people.

If your needs are specific then that would be the correct arena. What area of admin? Hardware? Software? Distribution specific? Look at the definitions at 'Mail list'. Rather broad subject arena for the tag ' Linux admin'.

The broad spectrum is what i was looking for... I have my own that I like to look at in random areas and was just looking for more... so is it not ok to ask for something that may get a few more replies or may have responses a little longer then others? Is it really needed to keep chopping away at this post? Again, I am looking for a "broad" response... there is not one section in particular that I am trying to gather resources for..
