I agree with this statement, you have to start somewhere and many a Windows admin don't use command-line now. So essentially a beginner's course in command-line tools, i.e. beginning system administration, not only is good for Linux but can strengthen a Windows admin by helping them not be afraid of cmd.exe.
- peterwwillis 14y agoThe course description sounds essentially the same as just following HOWTOs (which is how I taught myself the basic tools involved in sysadmin-ing many years ago). Just follow these old tutorials and save $20. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/categories.html http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/categories.html
- zeroexzeroone 14y agoIt does but many people lack the confidence to undertake something like learning a daunting new task on their own, having a class with a guiding direction from people smarter than you is always a good thing.
- mgcross 14y agoThere are certainly tons of free resources out there, but I'm busy enough that $1/day for 20 days of emails with directed tutorials is more than worth it. Those howto's look like a great resource for more detailed (and varied) info, but I just need someone to guide me (and gently prod me) through the basics.
