What ito read depends on your goal. For example.... with the X books, read vol 3 if you want to use X; vol 8 to admin X; and the others to write X clients.
Usenet and uucp stuff is pretty obsolete at this point.
Pass on System Performance and Tuning. The 2nd edition is complete rewrite with a new author. The original was only ok when it came out...in 1990. The 2nd edition is 2002 and is very good.
Practical Unix Security is from 1991. Thumbing through my copy, I'm surprised at how good it still seems. It is co-written by Gene Spafford. Despite the date, read it. Hey, I'm looking at a first edition and I just noticed you have access to a 2nd edition. If Spaff is still the co-author, it's a must read.
The sendmail book is awesome. But do you need to read a 2 inch thick book on sendmail? This is the best book on your list, but it probably should be the last one you read.
TCP/IP Network Administration...I have a 1993 1st edition. It's not bad, but it's dated. Your 2nd edition might be pretty good.
Your Managing NFS and NIS must be a 1991 edition like mine. This is very dated. You can skip chapter 7 "Diskless Clients"....there's a phrase I haven't heard for a while. This is too dated.
Managing Internet Information Services...my copy is from 1994. LOL...gopher, veronica, jughead, wais... If you read this, do chapter 1,2,3,4 (intro) 17,18,19,20.1,20.2,21 (www) maybe 22,23,24 (mailing lists), and 27,28,29,30 (misc). The rest is too old.
I don't own the other books.

oci_set_edition
OCI_SET_EDITION(3) OCI_SET_EDITION(3)
oci_set_edition - Sets the database edition
SYNOPSIS
bool oci_set_edition (string $edition)
DESCRIPTION
Sets the database "edition" of objects to be used by a subsequent connections.
Oracle Editions allow concurrent versions of applications to run using the same schema and object names. This is useful for upgrading live
systems.
Call oci_set_edition(3) before calling oci_connect(3), oci_pconnect(3) or oci_new_connect(3).
If an edition is set that is not valid in the database, connection will fail even if oci_set_edition(3) returns success.
When using persistent connections, if a connection with the requested edition setting already exists, it is reused. Otherwise, a different
persistent connection is created
PARAMETERS
o $edition
- Oracle Database edition name previously created with the SQL " CREATE EDITION" command.
NOTES
Note
Oracle version requirement
This function is available from Oracle 11 gR2 onwards.
Caution
Persistent connections
To avoid inconsistencies and unexpected errors, do not use ALTER SESSION SET EDITION to change the edition on persistent connec-
tions.
Caution
DRCP Connection Pooling
To avoid inconsistencies and unexpected errors when using editions and DRCP with Oracle 11.2.0.1, keep a one-to-one correspondence
between the oci8.connection_class and the edition name used by applications. Each pooled server of a given connection class should
only be used with one edition. This restriction has been removed with Oracle 11.2.0.2.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Two scripts can use different versions of myfunc() at the same time
<?php
// File 1
echo "Version 1 of application
";
oci_set_edition('ORA$BASE');
$c = oci_connect('hr', 'welcome', 'localhost/XE');
$s = oci_parse($c, "begin :r := myfunc(); end;");
oci_bind_by_name($s, ":r", $r, 20);
oci_execute($s);
echo "The result is $r
";
?>
<?php
// File 2
echo "Version 2 of application
";
oci_set_edition('E1');
$c = oci_connect('hr', 'welcome', 'localhost/XE');
$s = oci_parse($c, "begin :r := myfunc(); end;");
oci_bind_by_name($s, ":r", $r, 20);
oci_execute($s);
echo "The result is $r
";
?>
