A few of us get together to share studying skills for linux system administration and hack on '''any and''' '''all things linux/f.o.s.s.'''.<br/>
* Emphasis is on '''everyone''' being welcome
We have an eye on certification and use the LPIC (2nd Ed, O'Reilly) book and RHCE Study Guide (4th Ed, Exam RH302, Osborne) by Michael Jang
* We encourage '''new people of all user levels''' to join in.<br/>
on red hat certification.<br/>  
* We also encourage users/hackers/developers of any, and all, operating systems who are interested in Linux.
Emphasis is on '''everyone''' being welcome, doing first, then learning.<br/>
We meet in a classroom reserved @ those times & days listed which has full connectivity via wireless/hardwire and whiteboards.<br/>
We encourage '''new people of all user levels''' to join in.<br/>
We also encourage users/hackers of other (or multiple) operating systems who are interested in linux and what they can and will do with it.<br/>

When is this study group?  
When is this class?  
Now on '''Thursdays''' from 15:00 to 17:00
On Tuesdays and Fridays from 15:00 to 18:00 and wide open to go as long as people want to hang out and hack.
 
==Meeting time and location==
* We are now meeting in a location offsite from the Space, but in SF, on Thursdays from 15:00-17:00.
* We now meeting at <strong>SECRET LOCATION</strong>.  email <strong>bigsack@gmail.com</strong> for the coordinates.
* For announcements, check out the [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Mailinglist Noisebridge-Discuss list].


==Our Current Focus==
===Where===
* We'll be setting up various networking equipment (server,switch, router, gateway, etc.) in two different rooms at the new location (as time provides) as well as starting other study topics.
At [[Getting Here|Noisebridge]],
* We'll be moving a box with existing server and routing software from one room to another room and connecting it to their network and securing it.
in the [[Turing]] classroom.
* This will be done as it would be in an occupational scenario giving two rooms internet via eth_ and wlan_ (i.e., establishing full connectivity via hardwire/wireless.)


===Past Bash Shell Scripting for Linux Systems Administrators===
===What===
In early 2012 the study group focused on shell scripting in Bash. The class was very small, but has grown ever since.  [http://www.systemateka.com/mkshscr.sh.html Here is a shell script] that makes shell scripts. Can you explain every detail on every line?
For discussion, use the SF-LUG mailing list: http://linuxmafia.com/mailman/listinfo/sf-lug


The shell scripters were meeting and working through their code on a line by line basis.  [http://www.linuxintheshell.org/2012/02/16/entry-000-redirection/ This article] on redirection is a great read as a followup to the past 2012-02-21 meeting.
For announcements, use the SF-LUG mailing list or the noisebridge-discuss list https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Mailinglist
One of the shell scripters put out [http://www.grantbow.com/command_line.html this good meta-guide] for learning the Command Line and for creating more advanced shell scripting in Bash.
There are also the most recent [http://www.linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php The Linux Command Line book] and [http://bash.deta.in/abs-guide.pdf Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide v6.6.19] available as PDF downloads as well.
