New to linux
Hi,
I need to learn basic trouble shooting in linux and do basic task like IP assigning, CSF. Is there any good web site or link you can share which will help me to learn more on the commands of linux as vague reading doesnt help me. Please advise |
The Linux Documentation Project
http://www.tldp.org/ or how about the website for the unknown distro you are using |
Rute User's Tutorial and Exposition:
https://www0.sun.ac.za/hpc/images/d/d5/Rute.pdf EDIT: SECOND RECOMMENDATION... The Linux Documentation Project: http://tldp.org/ |
A great deal of "a meaningful (to you ...) answer" will depend ... will depend entirely ... upon what you do and you do not know.
The first step, I will suggest, is that you must convert vague task-descriptions, such as "IP assigning" and "CSF," into brutally concrete ones, and "within a Linux context." (Don't make me guess whether "CSF" refers to "cerebro-spinal fluid" or "critical success factor.") You need to frame your question, and therefore your objective, in such a way that it really doesn't matter which operating-system you are talking about. Only then can you translate your quest into ... first, a meaningful Google Search ... then, a question here. Please feel free(!) to ask your question here! But, consider this: "I could not possibly speak, in any meaningful way, either to 'IP Assigning' or to 'CSF,' because I do not immediately know what you are talking about." Neither do I know where you are coming from, nor where you intend to go. |

Links below are pretty basic commands: https://access.redhat.com/documentat...-doslinux.html http://blog.rahuljain.org/2012/12/so...-commands.html As what others have said that if you can elaborate more and on what you want then you will be able to get more help and please don't post acronym without explaining what it means. |
Hey guys,
Thanks for your suggestions. Also will make sure not to use Acronyms as I new to these kind of forums just used it. To elaborate my need, I am looking for a site or a Document which will help me to learn basic tasks in Linux OS. All the websites in Internet I find is mostly related to commands. Any suggestion will help me.. Thanks |
well we posted a few
a desktop GUI is well a desktop gui and it is independent of the os Windows explorer or the apple window manager or Gnome or KDE are all point and click as to commands the terminal is used yes you TYPE IN COMMANDS into the terminal see the manual Code:
man bashhttp://www.tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/ |

For example if you are assigned to a task to do a hard reset on a Linux server, then a hammer is on the server room labeled as "Use only for hard reset". So which one to use a command in Linux or the hammer? lol... The tasks you're talking about will solely depend on your job function, unless you want to be a one man band in which you have to do everything by yourself. Check out link below for a basic tasks for system administration: https://sakai.uri.edu/access/content...008/linux3.pdf |
I have a straightforward suggestion.
1. Pick a distribution. 2. Setup your own environment via Virtualbox: install 1 machine without GUI to act as a server (ex. Debian) and 1 machine with GUI (to act as a desktop/client). 3. Install services on your server: * http * smtp and pop3/imap * database * dns Get them all working, then install another server using a distribution from another family (ex. CentOS) and try installing and configuring the services again. |
Hi ilesterg,
That's a good one. I am working to create such a set up now. Thanks |
No problem. The key really is to not give up when you encounter a problem which seem impossible to fix. Chances are, somebody has already encountered it and one way or another has found the solution. Also, you will never be out of things to play with. :)
Also bookmark this site; it has saved me a lot of pain, I hope it will work that way for you too :) |
You could try working your way through this http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/ :)
