Linux Training 2 Day Boot Camp plus LPI Certification Training Seminar

Linux Training 2 Day Boot Camp plus LPI Certification This Linux Administrator Boot Camp introduces the key aspects of the Linux operating system and equips the student to install and configure Linux on suitable hardware. This is a hybrid course including both instructor led classes and online courseware with mentoring. After two days of intense instruction, CourseGlobal is able to provide 50 hours of online instruction. The course describes how to set up and configure essential networking services over TCP/IP networks, including the Network File System (NFS), DNS, network printing, e-mail, and configuring a web server. The learning path explains how to maintain a secure Linux system. This involves: managing users, software, and processes; working with the Linux filesystem, and using text editors and the Bash shell. It also incorporates troubleshooting techniques and principles for Linux systems.
