Payal:
I agree with Kent: the Python Cookbook is an excellent resource. And,
it has a whole section on System Administration. try this URL:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python?kwd=System
You can also try Google. I entered 'Python sysadmin'. Here are just a
few potentially interesting sites that came back:
http://www.samag.com/documents/s=8964/sam0312a/0312a.htm
http://www.unixreview.com/documents/s=8989/sam0401d/
http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2002/05/09/sysadminguide.html
Look through these and other resources, choose an example function that
relates to one of your tasks and try it out. Post questions and
problems here. Good luck
Regards,
Barry
