Customer Review:

Kanishk says, “Let me start of by congratulating the entire Edureka team for putting together such an amazing content for their courses. I am enrolled in their live course and my learning experience has been phenomenal. I tried learning Linux Administration on my own but in every attempt i hit a dead end. However, I learned Linux Administration from the very best. The quality and experience of the instructor are excellent and this reflects in his high quality post lecture hands on projects and assignments. I must also take this opportunity to thank the support staff for prompt doubt solving via their student forums. I am a permanent member of theirs and will continue to learn from Edureka.”

Is wonderful video, just adding few more areas that may ask in interview .
1) about sudo (what is the use, how to configure, configuration file location etc.. )
2.) How does the 'passwd' command gain root user permissions?
3) What is sticky bit and where it is used, how to set etc...
4) If we create an empty folder, it's size will be shown as 4K, why it so?
5) if /var filesystem became full, what will be your approach to solve this ?
6) why cant we set hard link between filesystems ?
7) how can we run a script while booting system itself ? ( before user login )

[SWGINSPECTOR]

Most people would probably expect you to use "touch" to create files, question 30. Editors obviously won't create the file until you save it and can't as easily be used in a script.
