[olug] Today's recommendations for a beginner

[Dave Thacker]

They might look at
http://www.linuxcommand.org/   and the free companion book

I've also heard good things about the Sysadmin course by tutorialLinux
https://youtube.com/@tutoriaLinux    Look for the  "The Linux Basics
Course: Beginner for Sysadmin, Step by Step" playlist. The course was
updated in 2022.
