good books for a newbie sun admin

[Guest_imported]

I am very new to solaris administration. I am basically learning from my job. (We do have a remote sys amdin.)
So, do not get frustrated with my silly questions.


Could someone suggest some good books or websites to learn the solaris admin. (My company does not have enough budget to send me to a class soon!)

for books I'd suggest:
Essential System Administration - from the O'Reilly series.
Solaris (Sun Certified System Administrator for Solaris 8.0) - from the CERT Trainer Series.

for web-sites:

have fun.... Brantley

Configuration and Capacity Planning for Solaris Servers is somewhat dated, but still explains Sun Server planning as well as anything.

I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
