Junior Level LPIC-1 Exam 101: File and Storage Administration

Overview/Description
As an inherently multi-user system, Linux requires a way to manage disk usage by different users, and does so through quotas. Linux file system security is managed though user and group permissions and ownership. Files in Linux can be linked in a flexible way through the use of hard and symbolic links. This course covers quotas and file level security, and the use of links and the locations of system files and other important file locations. This course is part of a series that prepares the learner for CompTIA Linux+ exam LX0-101 and Linux Professional Institute (LPI) LPIC-1 Junior Level Administrator exam 101.

Target Audience
Administrators who are rolling out and supporting Linux in the enterprise; individuals seeking internationally recognized, distribution-neutral Linux certification.
