Overview
In this Learning Linux System Administration training course, expert author Jim Strickland will teach you how to install, configure, and manage a Linux system. This course is designed for absolute beginners, meaning no Linux experience is required.
You will start by learning about the terminal environment, covering files and file manipulation, regular expressions, and pipes and redirects. From there, Jim will teach you about kernel services, such as processes and daemons, virtual memory, and file system security. Finally, this video tutorial also covers account anatomy, mechanics, and strategies for recovering from various failure modes.
Once you have completed this computer based training course, you will have gained the knowledge needed to take control of your Linux machine. Working files are included, allowing you to follow along with the author throughout the lessons.
