Linux+ certification demonstrates technical competency and provides a broad awareness of Linux operating systems. Professionals who have achieved the Linux+ certification exhibit all-important knowledge of installation, operation, administration, and troubleshooting services.

The CompTIA Linux+ Certification Guide is an overview of the certification that gives you insights into the system architecture. You’ll understand how to install and uninstall Linux distributions, followed by working with various package managers. Once you’ve grasped all this, you’ll move on to manipulating files and processes at command-line interface (CLI) and creating, monitoring, killing, restarting, and modifying processes.

As you progress, you’ll be equipped to work with display managers and learn how to create, modify, and remove user accounts and groups, as well as understand how to automate tasks. The last set of chapters helps you configure dates and set up local and remote system logging. In addition to this, you’ll explore different internet protocols, along with discovering network configuration, security administration, Shell scripting, and SQL management.

By the end of this book, you’ll not only have got to grips with all the modules using practice questions and mock exams, but you’ll also be well prepared to pass the LX0-103 and LX0-104 certification exams.
