After several sessions where Novell was promoting Linux and topics related to it, I overheard any number of administrators asking the same question in different wording: "How can I tell if I truly know Linux well enough?" Sometimes the "well enough" implied to be able to pass the CLP (Certified Linux Professional) or CLE (Certified Linux Engineer) exams. Many times, though, the "well enough" simply meant to be able to feel comfortable with the operating system.When I suggested the idea of a lab manual with case studies, it was well received enough to warrant scribbling some thoughts on paper. Those thoughts blossomed and fermented and turned into the book you now hold in your hand.This book is designed to allow you to test your knowledge with Linux at three different levels. If you are new to Linux, and the versions currently available from Novell, this book is most likely not for you. This book contains 75 practicum-style lab exercises to allow you to test your knowledge and abilities with Novell Linux Desktop 9 (NLD) and SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server (SLES). What Is Covered in This BookThis book is divided into four chapters. Each of the first three chapters builds on the ones that have come before it. You are presented with a case and some tasks to perform without any direction on how to accomplish those tasks. The fourth chapter walks through all the preceding exercises and shows one solution to each.Chapter 1, "Novell Linux Desktop 9," offers 15 exercises using the Novell Linux Desktop. No other operating system or software is required, and you need only have a mastery of this NOS in order to work through these.Chapter 2, "SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9," offers 30 exercises of intermediate difficulty using SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server (SLES). These cases are roughly equivalent to the practicums you would encounter during the CLP exam.Chapter 3, "Advanced SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9," offers 3
