Synopsis

Eckert's LINUX+ and LPIC-1 GUIDE TO LINUX CERTIFICATION, 5th Edition, empowers you with the knowledge and skills you need to succeed on CompTIA's Linux+ (Powered by LPI) Certification exam--as well as in your network administration career. The book covers the latest Linux distributions, virtualization, containerization and storage technologies. Comprehensive coverage also addresses key job-related networking and security services, including FTP, NFS, Samba, Apache, DNS, DHCP, NTP, Squid, Postfix, SSH, VNC, Spice, RDP, GPG, PostgreSQL and iptables/firewalld. Hands-on projects give you practice using both modern Linux distributions (Fedora(TM) 28 and Ubuntu Server 18.04) and industry's legacy Linux distributions. And with MindTap's live virtual machine labs, you can explore various solutions in a safe, sandbox environment using real Cisco hardware and virtualized Linux operating systems.

About this title

Review

The virtual labs offer the student more opportunity to demonstrate the learned concept and ask questions if necessary. This visual representation only helps to cement the core concepts.

In my history of teaching I have found that most students learn more from hands-on. The Live Virtual Machine Labs teach hands-on skills using powerful machines that can be used in any browser or computer.
