as a background, I have been doing command-line UNIX since 1985. I
worked for AT&T installing AT&T UNIX computers, and AT&T PC6300 8086 DOS
PC's ( before windows) . I learned ED before I learned VI.
I learned to administer UNIX computers from the command line,there were
no menus. Printers, users, files, uucp, DNS... maintenance ( fixing bad
sectors, backups...). I know 5 or 6 VI commands really well:). I started
running linux at home around 2003 with SuSe Version 9. I installed
slackware at work, I think it was like version 2.14 or something, maybe
around 2000, maybe 1999.
All of my UNIX/Linux knowledge is seat-of-the-pants or AT&T courses, no
certifications.. I do have an NT Administration certificate from about
1998 :) I don't have a real life need for linux certification, but I
have installed it for people, and I certainly like to know MORE.
