Advice to become a unix guru?
Hello,
I have recently completed my training for Solaris 10 and have a good understanding of the bases now. I am playing around with my system but can't do much since my knowledge is limited. I am looking for some projects or some threads where I can learn more and expand my knowledge step by step. I guess I am kind of bored because I am going through the same stuff over and over again. Anything new in unix always excites me. I would like to learn entire system inside out. I would love to be part of different projects and also if it helps me learning system administration tasks, that would be great. Please give me some guidance.
