Shell navigation, file system hierarchy, and essential command-line tools.
Managing users, groups, permissions, and access control lists (ACLs).
LVM, partitioning, NFS, iSCSI, and filesystem management (XFS, ext4).
IP addressing, routing, firewalld, and network teaming/bonding.
Implementing SELinux policies, managing firewalls, and securing services.
Writing playbooks, managing configurations, and deploying at scale.
We don't just teach theory — we prepare you for the real world.
