New to the web host and ISP side of the house



I've taken on the (so far) part time system admin duties at a startup
web hosting company. I've just shy of a decade of experience as a
system admin (Solaris, BSD, Windows etc) but I find myself a bit out of
depth dealing with systems that are customer facing.

Frankly I can't go much wrong - I know the basic setup is 'ok' but it
needs a fair bit of work.

What are the best resources for coming up to speed in the ISP / web
hosting world? I'm thinking 'Dummies Guide for ISP System Admins' here.
