Topic:
Want to learn more about Linux Administration? Interested in a group study?
The next four meetings of LinuxChix LA will focus on the Linux Professional Institute (LPI) level 1 certification skills. We will be using the tutorial developed by Daniel Robbins and available through the
IBM developerworks site.
Hands on learning is the best way to learn Linux, so you are welcome to bring your laptop, but we are planning of several computer workstations to be available and the Knoppix LiveCD will be the working distro for the hands-on exercises. A Knoppix LiveCD is available for you to take home so you can continue the tutorial lesson(s) on your home computer. The Knoppix LiveCD will be used as the learning environment which will provide a safe playground in which to explore tutorial topics.
There are four separate tutorials in the level 1 group. The subjects covered are:
- Linux Fundamentals (Feb 27, 2005)
- Basic Administration (April3, 2005 - Rescheduled)
- Intermediate Administration (April 24, 2005)
- Advanced Administration (May 22, 2005)
One tutorial per month is planned with the first tutorial on Linux Fundamentals on Feb. 27 starting at 1:00pm. The remaining tutorials will be held on the fourth Sunday of each month at the same time and place.
The location is near USC just east of Normandie on Jefferson.
1466 W. Jefferson Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90007
(323) 734-0176
Linux Professional Institute (LPI) offers a certification test of Linux administration skills. The certification itself is more important for those seeking employment as a Linux Systems Administrator, and seeking an LPI certification is not a requirement of this study group.
