New player looking for some answers

Hi guys,
To start with - if this is in the wrong section, feel free to move it.
I'm a totally new player to DAoC - enjoying it so far but a few things are doing my head in and I'm not getting as many answers as I'd like in-game, and I don't want to get to 50 and realize 'oh, that shouldn't be there'.
I've read over a few templates, but those just confuse me even more.
So I'll just go ahead and explain my plan of actions and ask a few questions - if you can help out at all, much appreciated:
What I've done so far:
- I joined Midgard with the intention of being a Valkyrie but was told this is a classic server, so now I know what a classic server is!
- I've since re-rolled and started with a Berserker (I figure standard melee fighter is a decent starter character)
- I've got in mind to go with an Axe and LA (left axe) spec (i.e. I want to dual wield), and don't plan to use swords or hammers at all
- I've achieved level 6 and left it at that for now until I understand a bit more about the game
Questions:
- How many spec points can I spend on both Axe and LA?
Or rather, what would be a recommended amount to spend?
I've d/l the DAoC character planner and apparently I can spend 50 spec points in Axe, 50 in LA and 28 in Parry before running out of points - is this correct for this server as well?
It seems like I've spent (too) many of points, so I'm just curious.
- Are there such things as clans in this game? Everyone seems lumped together in one big guild at the moment, which makes sense, but just wondering.
- What are the differences between Skills and Styles? Just a general definition is fine.
- What are 'Rest points'? They're mentioned on the character planner as well - also, when/where can I obtain these?
That's all I can think of for now.
Again, thanks if you've read this far and answered a question or two!
