For beginners to general server administration, Ubuntu is a recommended environment, and the Ubuntu documentation is a relatively helpful and complete starting point. Particularly recommended is the Ubuntu Server Guide, available as a PDF:

• https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/index.html
• https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/serverguide.pdf

For experienced administrators:

• Gentoo's documentation is also relatively complete and more targeted towards them.
• the complications of RedHat / CentOS will be less daunting than for beginners.
