Configuring SUSE Linux Enterprise

A Cloud Guru

This course and the rest of the series cover the objectives for the SUSE Certified Administrator in Enterprise Linux 15 exam, # `050-754`._ In this second course of the series, we'll take a look at the practice of Remote Administration with SSH and VNC including configuring the SSH client and server. We'll then dive deep into how SUSE Linux Enterprise Server systems boot, run, and manage services via `systemd`. We'll then learn all about processes on SUSE Linux Enterprise, managing them, backgrounding them, and scheduling processes. We'll finish up this course with a great section on managing users and groups, all about file system permissions and Access Control Lists, and ending with privilege elevation/delegation via `sudo`. We'll then recommend the next steps for those pursuing the full SUSE Certified Administrator in Enterprise Linux 15 exam and certification.
