Administration

Linux is a multi-layered and complex system which presents administrators with challenges but also provides the tools to master these challenges. The manuals in this category explain the use of these tools and give many practical hints for a Linux system administrator's daily work.

To make best use of these manuals, suitable experience using Linux is necessary — we presume efficient use of the shell and the common Linux command line tools as well as a text editor. Everything necessary is explained in the manuals of the Fundamentals category.
