Where can I find good resources for *nix exploiting? My searching seems to be failing me.

What exactly are you looking for?
Is it kernal exploitation like local root exploits?
If so, look into Buffer Overflow securitytube has a great series on it.

Learn ASM, program layout in memory, and how the C standard calls functions and allocate variables.

If you understand all that, you'll be able to deduce attack vectors.
For example, once you learn that the stack grows up, and how function calls work, you will understand what stack overflows are and how they work.
