A Half-Dozen (or so) Essential Open Source Network Administration Tools for MacOS X Panther
Way back when, Mark Duling used to write stuff now and then for billpalmer.net. He's since branched out on his own, and has recently published a six-pack (actually, now a seven-pack) of extemely detailed how-to guides for getting under the hood of MacOS X's UNIX foundation and making all kinds of neat stuff happen. I'm afraid most of it goes so far over my head I'd need bincoluars, but I have little doubt (as evidenced by the repeated mention of it during last night's Online MUG meeting) that there is a gang of "Mac geeks" who are in fact looking to get under the hood and could therefore put Mark's how-to guides to great use.
You can find Mark Duling's "HOWTO" guides here. My only hope is that one day, when Mark goes on to publish many major, hugely successful books on these kinds of topics, he remembers who helped him get started. ;)
