Networking Guides for Linux Sysadmins

[shiftpgdn]

It's a shame the Amazon/Microsoft marketing machine is slowly killing the art of system administration. Though I guess I probably sound like a greybeard complaining about kids today and their fancy libraries and compilers.

It is nice to be able to throw up a nice interactive data viz app in a day on Reddit that can handle millions of POST requests with minimal effort.

All the VPS providers are doing their part too. While Digital Ocean, etc. publish some pretty good guides on how to setup some software, step one is always "spin up a new VM on our platform". Based on discussions I see here and elsewhere, people seem to have completely forgotten how to install VirtualBox and run a local VM.

RedHat spams the crap out of /r/redhat with these, some of them are of very low quality

[kbr2000]

Indeed, which is what they're doing here: the OP only posts RedHat fabrications like that in here...

wow; if you check the post history you are right. and they all end up [dead].

maybe /u/dang will be by later if enough of us flag it, and can simply close the account.

Never. The same goes for Systemd too.

Lists don't make for such great discussion, because they end up being about the lowest common denominator of the items on the list, which is always something generic. Generic discussions aren't as interesting because there's rarely anything new to say about them. It's better to pick the most interesting item on the list and submit that.

Is there any good Linux based networking book/resources which teaches you from first principles ?

[tgeery]

Mostly linux agnostic, but in case it helps, its was all right for me. The practice exercises at the end of each section offer some hands-on help with some linux tools

A listicle of networking guides. I guess this may be found useful by some, but it appears to me as buzz feed-tier tech writing with no content produced; certainly not what I'd expect from a professional outfit like red hat.
