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.

Hi, I've played with wiki's a bit, and would like to implement on my own web site. I got a phpwiki going at home on linux. However, my public home page is hosted on a Bigpond account, using IIS.
From what I can tell, Bigpond do not support anyway that I could implement a wiki on the site.
Can anybody think of a way to implement a wiki on a bog standard web hosting site where page uploads are done via ftp ?
Upload with ftp... that's going to be a hard wiki to use, and very hard to manage. not to metion the security risks. If you want to implement a wiki, you'd have to get another hosting company that gives you database and JSP/PHP.
I just made a wiki with MySQL and JPS, it's hosted by Tomcat on a dedicated server. Check my signature.
I suppose a single user wiki is what I am really after. So my ftp upload details could become the wiki logon details.
Perhaps my standard web site could host a java applet that reads .csv or html table data from the web site, and formats the output before displaying to the user.
In terms of security: if the web site doesn't allow directoy browsing anyway, and my links / wiki info were stored in long folder and file names, then I can't see how someone would be able to access them if the applet asked for user/pass before showing any content ?
