Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Im trying to configure my Slack 9.1 for the internet ... Its able to recognize the other machines on my network (192.168.0.3,4,5,6) ... but when it try to ping google.com or ping 24.**.**.*** it says either "Unknown Host" or "Network is Unreachable" ... I am almost positive its a nameserver problem, but im not sure what my name server is, or what one looks like .... I had the same problem a while ago .... I just cant remember what I did, i remember i Put 2 nameservers in resolv.conf ... if anyone could help that would be great. Thanks.
for now, you can set your resolv.conf to search at your router , likely 192.168.0.100(assuming you have one) and it may be able to forward your dns search info for you.
