Mar 25, 2011
What would be a good book/manual to read to learn more about linux o.p. systems? and how to use them.I have to add I may not have such a good internet connection I might end up with free dial up (Bummer)so I'm not sure if a link will do.I will end up at the library anyway. so if you could suggest something that would be good, I'm not really looking for the history but more like how to use, maybe the terminal and such?.

I don't know why but on Ubuntu 10.04 I can't find manual for read bash command (invoked with "man 1 read").There are manuals for C++ functions, but not for bash command...However, I'm still able to use that particular command in my scripts.Is read command deprecated, I miss some files or is this a bug?

The last time I wrote code for anything was about 15 years ago using Turbo Pascal. I would like to get back into it, most likely to create some mobile apps or enhance web sites. What is the best general purpose language to learn? And what is a good method for learning, preferably free?

I am trying to learn shell scripting and came up with a lil first script that I could actually use.I have a basic shell script and all it does is run:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
So basically just a shell script that updates your packages. NOW, my question. I made another shell script that makse a bit of a menu and asks what you wanna do, 1 to UPDATE or 2, to CLOSE. How do I make it so when they enter 1 it runs my update.sh ?

I am just starting to learn Linux and am interested in a career in Linux. Actually I wanna go for RHCE, which is the first step for Sys Admin..right?? Basically I do NOT want to go into programming/developing as I don't feel it's my cup of tea (and also may be it sort of boggles me). Still, from what I gather I am having confusions regarding whether I should learn any programming language for a career in Linux.
Here I am avoiding programming..and now I get to hear that Linux career uses programming..That's sort of frustrating...My friend told me I need to "master" C. Do I need to learn some programming language?? If yes, then to how much extent?

My predecessor wrote a perl file that is run manually twice a month to send a set of emailed reports to one of our clients. My boss has requested that I look into automating this; it seemed simple enough, and I thought I had it set up, but I'm running into a rather strange problem.
Both the emailing program (in perl) and the report files themselves are kept on a Novell server reached from our Linux box via /mnt/srv/path/to/file/. From the linux box, I can see and manipulate them fine. The files are displayed as having 755 permissions across the board. The Linux box itself is running SuSE 9.3.
A manual run of the emailing program works fine; the files are sent out as expected. However, when I tried to set up a crontab entry for this, I'm running into trouble. I manually edited /etc/crontab to include a line setting the program to run at '0 21 * * 1,2,3,4,5'. The program itself runs fine, but errors out every time it tries to attach a file; the error message is one that various perl sites indicate means 'could not read the path to this file'.
What's the difference between a cron run and a manual run? What are some possible reasons the former fails and the latter works?

Going through book, "Guide to UNIX Using Linux". I am doing one of the projects that has me writing scripts to join files. Here is my pnumname script and I am extracting the programmers names and numbers from the program file and redirecting the output to the file pnn. I then created a joinall script where I am trying to join the files pnn and pnumname and redirect the output to pactrep. When I run the script sh joinall and use less to display the contents of the redirected file pactrep, I get an error- join: extra operand `pnum'
Try `join --help' for more information.... I went to the man pages but I still (obvious) do not have a solid grasp.
