Getting started with Linux

Asked by tomcurrier in Linux, Linux Setup

I have installed Linux (from the single CD method which I downloaded off the Net) and I have configured static  IP, etc with the result that I can ping outside URL's.  My first success!!

But I don't know how to do anything else.  I'm thoroughly confused as to how to download and install packages.  My ultimate goal is to configure this box as a Linux file server, with the intention of possibly replacing the file servers in our remote offices.  Start Free Trial
