I needed to have a clear and comprehensible overview of the basic needs of a Linux server, and this course really nailed it. Not only do I feel way more confident, but it also gave me the impulse to look into other topics such as SELinux and more advanced configuration of the httpd service. I would recommend this course to anyone looking for knowledge regarding this field.
