Just booked SA-118 class

| Is this class the first step to Unix success. I have a little Unix background, is this class going to be elementary? | |

| Really depends on how much background you have with unix. The course content for SA-118 is below. I added an example of what I think they're going to show you...
* Log in and log out of Solaris and Common Desktop Environments (CDE)
* Compose command-line strings to perform functions
ie: lp /tmp/file1
* Navigate the directory tree
ie: cd /var/adm/messages, or
cd $HOME/mystuff
* Manipulate text files
ie: cat /tmp/file1 >> /tmp/file2, or
dtpad /tmp/file1
* Create files and directories
ie: touch /tmp/file1, or
mkdir /tmp/testdir
* Back up and restore user files and directories
ie: tar cvf jimbob.tar /export/home/jimbob
* Change permissions of files and directories
ie: chmod 755 /tmp/myprog.sh
* Use the vi text editor
* Identify and modify initialization files
ie: .profile, .cshrc, & .login files
* Employ shell features to streamline command execution
ie: command history, command line completion, aliases
* Use basic network commands
ie: ping, spray, telnet, rlogin
* Use commands to search directories and files
ie: find /tmp -name "file1" -print
* List active user processes and selectively kill user processes
ie: ps -ef | grep user1, or
pkill -HUP inetd
It all seems like VERY basic unix user stuff.. If you already know this, you may want to look at something like SA-238 instead.

| yeah, that's pretty much what they go over. i took that class in november. there are quite a few things that can be learned from this class even if you have experience with solaris. if you have very little exp, i think you will find this class a great help. |
