this is just a testing computer and i just started working with it and do not need it for anything else so i have plenty of time to learn and become an advanced linux user.
thanks

http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centosHi,I suggest that you'll start reading some docs on www.centos.org, it's comprehensive from basic to more advance topic, then from there if there's something unclear shoot back another post here.Good luck,/joseph
