Lectures
Tip
Each lecture has a corresponding chapter in the textbook (see Credits).
Tip
Labs are good practice for the exam — each one maps to an exam exercise.
Credits
The lectures are mainly based, with some modifications, on UNIX and Linux System Administration Handbook written by Evi Nemeth, Garth Snyder, Trent R. Hein, Ben Whaley, and Dan Mackin and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. Copyright © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.
