How to do what? Anything in particular or just some general linux stuff? You can try this site.

By the way, how did you get RedHat 9.1?

mmm - 9.1 aint out yet - are you sure you got that bit right?

Quick and easy linux - what do you want to know? A site that tells you how to setup apache won't tell you how to use OpenOffice (except maybe LQ). The best 2 sites are:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/
http://www.google.com/

Your getting rusty in your old age Mr. Ross. I thought you would have beat me to that one for sure.

dude_228-
Linux is a kernel; 9.1 is a version. In between the two, you'll need to insert your distro, to make it clearer to everyone what you're working with. For clarity's sake, check out DistroWatch
Simply Linux would probably be a good collective howto page for you to start on.

I think he doesn't know there are a lot of distributions in Linux. He probably means Mandrake 9.1.
