all great suggestions but i would also like to add set up virtual machines with solaris and BSD. Also, some flavor of linux that you like. perhaps gentoo? that will keep you busy for a while.

then get them to do remote displays, ssh, learn the disk structures, useradd, usermod...etc. I switched a few years ago and love it. its quite the learning curve and fortunately i have a lot of unix machines here, especially Sun machines and a mock up of everything in a testbed. so i can break all i want and have to learn to fix it on my own. Its a hair pulling and frustrating event but the more you know the better off you are. it gets easier as you go along, what you thought was difficult a few weeks ago is now easy.

good luck!

mojomojo::controller::admin

MojoMojo::Controller::Admin(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			  MojoMojo::Controller::Admin(3pm)

NAME

       MojoMojo::Controller::Admin - Site Administration

DESCRIPTION

       Action to handle management of MojoMojo. Click the admin link at the bottom of the page while logged in as admin to access these functions.

METHODS

   auto
       Access control. Only administrators should access functions in this controller.

   settings ( /.admin )
       Show settings screen.

   user ( .admin/user )
       User listing with pager, for enabling/disabling users.

   role ( .admin/role )
       Role listing, creation and assignment.

   create_role ( .admin/create_role )
       Role creation page.

   edit_role ( .admin/role/ )
       Role edit page.

   handle_role_form
       Handle role form processing.  Returns true when a submitted form was actually processed.

   update_user ( *private*)
       Update user based on user listing.

   precompile_pages
       Make a formatted version of content body and store it in content.precompiled.  This makes MojoMojo go zing, when loading content for page
       requests.

       Depending on the number of pages, and versions of them, this could take some minutes.  For 2000 page versions on a 2.4 GHz desktop this
       script took about 3 minutes to run.

   delete
       Delete a page and its descendants.  This is in MojoMojo::Controller::Admin because we are restricting page deletion to admins only for the
       time being.

       TODO: this method should reside in the Model, not in a Controller (issue #87).
