LINUX ADMINISTRATION
Many people still believe that learning Linux is difficult, or that only experts can understand how a Linux
system works. Though there is a lot of free documentation available, the documentation is widely scattered on
the Web, and often confusing, since it is usually oriented toward experienced UNIX or Linux users. Today,
thanks to the advancements in development, Linux has grown in popularity both at home and at work. The
goal of this notes is to show people of all ages that Linux can be simple and fun, and used for all kinds of
purposes.
This notes was created as an in-depth of of the Linux Operating System Administration, geared toward new users as an
exploration, with lots of examples. For more advanced
trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system
and network administration. This notes contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience
as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. We hope these examples will help you to
get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.
Everybody who wants to get a "CLUE", a Command Line User Experience, with Linux (and UNIX in
general) will find this notes useful.
