Networking for System Administrators is often my recommendation for this. The author walks all the way up the stack from the physical layer up and name-drops every program and file he uses: `ethtool`, `/etc/hosts`, `/etc/resolv.conf`, `ipconfig`, `netcat`, `tcpdump` ...

I quite liked the accessible style, and got a lot out of making Anki flashcards for all of them.

Hi! If you don't mind, I would love to see that Anki deck. I'm a heavy Anki user myself, too. My gmail username is the same as my HN username. Thank you!

Excellent, I'll email you later on tonight. It'll be a good excuse to give the cards a once-over for formatting, etc and make sure they're all up to snuff!

ipconfig is deprecated. Replacement is ip.
