A four-day, hands-on class is being taught that introduces
the fundamentals of Apache, BIND, Postfix, and *BSD system administration, Sept. 16 - 19, in
the Seattle, Washington area. Puget Sound Technology is teaching a class introducing the fundamentals
of *BSD system administration, Sept. 16 - 19, in the Seattle,
Washington area. The class curriculum includes standard
administration skills applicable to several Unix-type operating
systems.
"The training will cover the important principles that apply
to all the BSDs, such as starting and stopping system services,
system logging, BSD file system hierarchy, user and group management,
basics of networking, installing third-party software, customizing the
kernel, and a lot more," said Jeremy C. Reed of Puget Sound Technology.
The main skills will be taught on OpenBSD with additional hands-on
instruction with NetBSD and FreeBSD.
"Learning the differences between standard administration tasks
helps the student understand the fundamental steps which will become
extremely useful in system and network troubleshooting," Reed said.
"It is also a great opportunity to try another operating system."
The hands-on training will also cover setting up DNS caching and
authoritative DNS servers, Apache web server basics, introduction
to Postfix and SMTP for mail services, and basic packet filtering.
