Welcome to Linux Online's Advanced Course

Welcome to Linux Online's course for advanced Linux users. The two previous courses were designed to be followed from point A to B to C etc., etc. This course is designed as a series of how-to documents, so to speak, that deal with installation, configuration and maintenance tasks for major services running on a Linux system. The "lessons" can be followed in no particular order, though there will be some instances where we make references to other parts of the course.

You don't need to have necessarily followed our two previous courses, Getting Started with Linux and Linux Online's Linux Course for Intermediate Level Users, but you should be familiar with the terms that we introduced in both of these courses. For example, if you're baffled by the use of terms like 'tarball' and 'PID', then you need to take a first (or second) look at these courses.
