From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I recently passed my Sys Admin cert from Linux Foundation and 50% of things by me were done on the fly:

  • View to what website the cerficate has been issued
  • Git commiting and pushing
  • Smart finding and deleting / moving
  • NFS and SSHFS mounting
  • Firewall redirection probably using iptables
  • Overall user management
  • Docker container management
  • Sysctl kernel parameters persistence
  • Systemctl server managing
  • AppArmor which I failed
  • LVM disk extending
  • From source compilation using make
  • NTP time synchronisation

that's all I remember. Overall I find that typicall Linux Desktop differs from these certs and the job.
