Editing Linux System Administration Study Group

[[Category:events]]

==About the group==

The Linux Systems Administration Study Group ('''LSG''') has been created in direct relation to the SF-LUG group and other related Linux events.<br/>
* Share and practice skills for Linux System Administration and hack on '''any''' and '''all''' things Linux/FOSS.<br/> 
* Emphasis is on '''everyone''' being welcome
* We encourage '''new people of all user levels''' to join in.<br/>
* We also encourage users/hackers/developers of any, and all, operating systems who are interested in Linux.

===When===
When is this study group? 
Now on '''Thursdays''' from 15:00 to 17:00

==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.
* If you want to join us, hit one of the organizers' by email offlist or ask someone else who you know is in the group, and we will be glad to give you the details...
* For announcements, check out the [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Mailinglist Noisebridge-Discuss list].

==Our Current Focus==
* 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.
* 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.
* 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===
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?

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.
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.
