Hi,
Hello
I wish to move into linux administration and personally I hate microsoft's way of working.
Two good websites 1. http://www.debianadmin.com/ 2. http://www.samag.com/
To work in windows I need to keep myself trained in windows and for that i have to use windows. That goes into a vicious circle. I find myself locked I am sure I would be considered as a newbie (I am one) in the linux world and I see jobs are mostly for the experienced in the linux administration.
The above two websites should help you to some extent.
Find some more help here: http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_network/
There's a Oreilly book too http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linag2/book/index.html
What should I do to make the switch? I need your suggestions.
I too would suggest, Ubuntu. If you don't have an internet connection (or are using dial up connection), I would recommend Mandriva (known to work /almost/ without problems) to begin with. Once you are familiar, you can try out others. If you wish to not disturb your existing setup, you can try out the Ubuntu LIVE CD / Knoppix LIVE CD.
