systems administration sessions
hi,
an idea came up, which is to carry out a set of lectures in the club,
about systems administration. topics that would probably be included are
- 'linux boot - from bios to sysV init'.
- 'networking basics - from a technical point of view'
- 'administering incoming/outgoing email systems'
these are some examples. the idea is to give both some technical
background as to how those systems work, and discuss various aspects where
administrators deal with these subjects, by way of initial configuration,
daily maintanance, troubleshooting, and most importantly - pointers to
more material.
the idea is NOT to turn anyone into a great and knowledgeable sys admin,
but rather to show the various areas that administrators have to deal
with, and show people who are interested in learning that area - an
overview and some kind of a self-study roadmap.
my two questions would be as follows:
- please write me back with ideas for topics that most interest you about
this subject.
- in order to make this session less biased, i'd like to call on
_experienced_ systems administrators amongst you, to share your ideas,
and hopefully to come up and help give a lecture about your most
favourite aspect of systems administration. an example of an aera in
which i'd surely like someone else to give a lecture, is administering
large sites - i don't have experience in that, and thus think someone
else will talk about this better then i do (large site means a site with
many machines to administer, not just many users).
please write directly to me, and don't clutter up precious "list-space".
i'll post a summary (if i get any responses ;) ) on both lists.
thanks,
guy
