Some more haiku, using the conference-gimme fridge magnets from LISA 2000 in New Orleans (I think it was):

newbie root user
write superuser passwd
get archive and mount

Sendmail wizard man
Internet worm nuke bandwidth
rm vacation

guru wannabees
mail kernel bug flame smiley
go RTFM

authentication
networking gateway black hole
echo coredump geek

telnet protocol
xterm login tty
TCP/IP
