Title: Linux Directories, Extensions, Priviledges
Post by: gbrocks on April 26, 2005, 03:49:07 am

I am new to the Zaurus. Though I am computer literate (I develop custom Mac & Windows database applicatoins), I am unfamiliar with the significance of the various Linux directories and file name extensions. Can anyone suggest where I might find this information?

I also need info on how to change access privileges for deleting files using Tree!Explorer, and what files to avoid deleting.

I can be reached directly at gbrocks@att.net

Have a look at rute (http://www.icon.co.za/~psheer/book/), it covers all the fundamentals of linux and is an excellent reference for the more advanced stuff too
