Some literature
Itīd be useful for ya to read some of Douglas E. Comer TCP-IP stuff... He presents a very well organized collection of network books, with RFCs references, and so on... About OSes, I recommend you to read Unix Systems Administration Handbook - Prentice Hall. It explains everything about the basic concepts of Unix, linking the reader to some references outside the book. Finally, learn C! ;-)
