Linux Administration: The Linux Operating System and Command Line Guide for Linux Administrators

I’m a Windows administrator with over 18 years experience, and have only lightly touched on Linux, by following listed instructions.This book was easy to follow, and it enlightened me to what some of those commands I’ve used actually mean and what to use around that to cement my knowledge and give me confidence on a Linux box.You won’t learn how to set up DNS or DHCP or best practices for managing multiple server environments, so I think this is a good introduction to Linux in a command line interface, and should be a great reference to moving forward in actual Linux Administration.

This baby boomer worked with and serviced Windows in medical computers for many years and have now retired. It is time for me to get serious about Linux on my personal computers and network, and to work toward dumping Microsoft. I really do want to use the GUI applications as much as possible, but I know I have to become proficient with the command line to properly use Linux. This book and others by Jason are teaching me the techniques I have to learn to get where I want to be.

A concise yet complete book about Linux Administration. I use this book along with other sources as a preparation for the Linux Foundation Certified System Administrator Certification. I find it very complete and covers most of the domains required by the certification. Furthermore the author seems to provide very consistent examples that will help administrators deal with everyday problems.

Awesome book. Well written and good content. It was only 2.99 for kindle edition! Thumbs up!one issue I found with kindle edition is: editing seems bit off. In several places, words are not separated by spaces. especially when describing commands

Useful book for any level of Linux users! I bought an exam from this author and it was very helpful . Having book on my hands very good idea!

Jason Cannon is an amazing instructor/writer, if you have any questions you can reach out to him and he will respond. Please check out his classes on Udemy you will be happy you purchased them!!

This is a good reference to have by your side when administrating a linux system. Its easy to understand and the examples are great. I can only recommend this book for new linux administrators.

Easy to pick up and use.

Half-way house between the purist's Unix and Uncle Tom Cobbler's Windows 10, Linux nowadays retains the efficiency and configurability that open source software can offer, with a bit of M$ fancypants GUI lookey-likey via Xwindows. This is 2017 and linux still hasn't captured Uncle Tom's imagination; these primers may help, little by little.

Useable

Good item !!!

Five stars

I really liked the flow of the content, the language is very simple to understand and follow. the Quiz at the end of the chapter is what I liked the most.
