Linux/UNIX Systems Administration Training

The UNIX operating system has become a predominant leader in both academic and industrial computing environments, appearing everywhere from desktops to servers. Considered the backbone for 80% of today's websites, UNIX is recognized as the platform of choice because of its versatility and ability to work across platforms.
