== What This Course is About ==
<u>This course teaches the maintenance and administration of a UNIX server using Linux. Students will learn to install configure, customize, test and maintain common services available on Linux servers.This course is the second third in a series of courses about Linux technologies</u>.* ULI101 taught you to be Linux user.* OPS235 taught you to move from being a Linux user to being a Linux system administrator.* '''OPS335 will teach you to ''administer'' Linux ''servers'' (web servers, DNS servers, FTP servers, file sharing servers).'''
:* ULI101 taught As a system administrator, you to will be responsible for installing, configuring, adjusting, maintaining, and troubleshooting the operation of computer systems. You will potentially have several hundred people depending on the machines that you manage. This is a Linux ''user''lot of responsibility, and with that responsibility comes power.

This is a lot of responsibility, and with that responsibility comes power. You will be able to change anything on the system, and you will also have the ability to damage or destroy the system. :* In this course you use a removable disk tray pack with the lab computers to set up a Linux system. You will also set up at least four several additional Linux systems using "Virtual Machines", and therefore gain experience with different types of system configurations as well as setting up networking between systems. :* Later courses (OPS335 and OPS435) teach you to administer Linux servers (web servers, DNS servers, FTP servers, file sharing servers) -- and to use more complex scripting to boost your system administration efficiency.
