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.

I can't connect to the internet with Fedora Core 3. I don't know how, and I can't get a free internet in my area. If you can help, area code is 319. AOL would be nice. Otherwise I only have this Windows.
Thanks

I just installed Fedora Core 3 on my other computer. I am using a different computer.
Problem: I need an internet connection, not long-distance, and this computer uses AOL. I cannot find out how to use AOL on Fedora Core 3.
What kind of internet connection are you using? Dial up? Broadband?
Whilst I am hardly a Linux guru, I do know that if you are using a cable connection of some sort, it should be pretty much a matter of plugging the line into your computer if you have DHCP enabled. However, if you're using a dial up connection, it's a much different matter. You'll have to spend a lot of time get your dial up modem configured most likely, as it's quite probable that it's a WinModem.
