I  don't know if this is what people had in mind, what ideally I would 
want to  see is a book that you can  look up for a system similar to 
what you have on  NT, for example mail server with address book and 
stuff like that. The  book then describes what the linux equivelant is, 
for example, LDAP, pop3d, imap, and sendmail for example, it should then 
go into detail of how to find out how to set up the systems and pitfalls 
etc.
