Has anyone studied TCP/IP? Can you understand it? Which books are best for learning this?

The best books, overall, for computing stuff like that are the O'Reilly books that have animals on them and are often referred to by the animal, such as the crab book, which is TCP/IP Network Administration - which is the one I'd suggest to you.
It covers all the TCP/IP stack stuff, then goes into a bit of Linux / Unix admin stuff like BIND / DNS, etc..
I'm only asking because for example Microsoft & Cisco have different ways of explaining it, depending on what your end goal is you might be best to look at a book slighty more in tune with what your trying to get out of it? Just a thought.

There's something else that's stuck in my head about ICMP (Internet Control Military Police), they come and slap you if you manage to get a successful grope (ping).
Well that's of absolutely no use to you whatsoever I guess but it's just wasted 5 minutes of my time
