Linux

hi all
as a fresher in linux,wat are the things i want to learn in linux to upcome as al linux guru...RHCE with MCA

[*olga*]

hi...i suppose you don't actually HAVE an RHCE certification... you can't be new to linux after passing that examination :P anyway, i'm a newbie myself and i found "running linux" & "linux cookbook" from o'reilly publications quite helpful.. My agenda is something like this:

1) learn a few stuff on how linux is organized and structured
2) learn how to manage accounts/permissions/sudoers
3) learn networking basics
4) snoop around (be careful so as not to do anything stupid-irreversible.. i crashed my fedora 9 first week i got it... kmod-nvidia+x configuration prob :P )
5) if you're really that into it (i, for example just LOVE using gnome-terminal... always had a thing for command prompts :P ) and you're sure you've covered all the basic admin.issues try some bash scripting.. you will love it... i created my first working script yesterday and i'm psyched :P (previous test scripts don't count)
6) learn how to boot in different runlevels... in case something goes terribly wrong (with x most of the times :P ), this knowledge will come in handy
7) learn how to install programs ANY way {including from source}
8] learn WELL the most handy tools: sed/awk/vim/regular expressions etc..


we both have extremely long ways to go before we become gurus (:P ) that kind of experience only comes with time & a LOT of effort... but i suppose my agenda is a good way to start (will get you to medium level definitely, i suppose)

any thoughts/other suggestions by anyone more experienced?
