Learn about the Unix Way: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?UnixWay
Learn about crufty neckbeard stuff: http://doc.cat-v.org/programming/
(cat-v has all kinds of interesting things)
Learn C: http://c.learncodethehardway.org/book/
No, really, learn C: http://www.amazon.com/C-Programming-Language-2nd-Edition/dp/...
Learn about networking with sockets: http://www.beej.us/guide/bgnet/
(it's in C, but the principles are in other language bindings as well)
Devops/sysadminning is mostly just damned superstition and voodoo and hard-fought experience...that said, consult notes from others: http://users.cis.fiu.edu/~tho01/psg/

If you want more hands-on experience, setup a VPS and make something: http://feross.org/how-to-setup-your-linode/
If you find stuff in there you don't understand, ask your devs for help.
