> Stack tracing? Procmon? Miserable understanding of DNS and networking, what's a /24?

I'm primarily a developer, but I'd love to understand networking/low-level OS concepts like these in greater detail. Every time I start with a tutorial, I just get overwhelmed with how much I don't know — is there a book you'd recommend for a developer getting into devops (advanced networking, low-level OS architecture, configuring a machine from scratch, etc.)?

For networking, I think this is a great place to start: http://www.amazon.com/TCP-Illustrated-Protocols-Addison-Wesl...

For OS, I would recommend looking at Bach (on the design of UNIX) and Tannenbaum's books.

Thanks for the recommendations! Got 4 of them for less than $40 :)
