Online Bash Shell Script Tutorials / Guides
 

I have been using Linux at home / work / play for several years now however my limitation is I have no programming background whatsoever. This is starting to hinder my ability to be productive or IMO a decent "Linux Administrator".

I know there are a plethora of guides / books / articles etc etc etc to learn Bash shells scripting but I wanted to ask here for advice or suggestions for material I can follow along / practice / and eventually deploy in my own Linux boxes. Do you guys have any recommendations for me to start from square 1? I've done the generic 'helloworld.sh' that just echo's a string one it's ran.

Thanks for any info and or help!

Thanks - mywiki URL is broken but I will check the 1st suggestion out.

Not sure why but it often takes a long time to resolve but does eventually open ;)

I find it is the more important of the 2 as once you have the basics, this page will tell you all the pitfalls and general mistakes most make with bash scripting.
