Computer Networking (?) by Andrew Tanenbaum    -

	if you are looking for theoritical stuff like routing-tables,
	packet transmission, etc.

Internetworking with TCP/IP  by Douglas Comer  - 

	good for conceptual understanding of TCP/IP and related protocols
	with light duty material on NFS and YP. ( A good text called UNIX 
	networking by Kochan is also available, for light reading. )

UNIX Networking by Stevens    -

	this takes you to code level details of RPC implementation and
	socket usage. i have found this newly published text exceedingly
	informative and helpful for the hands-on stuff, which is what i 
	am primarily involved with.

For UUCP and 'cu' like stuff I have found the ref. manuals more helpful
than the texts published on UNIX communications, etc. 

Hope this helps.
