In a current IT landscape that places high value on flexibility and cost-efficiency, transitioning to open-source infrastructure is no longer just an option—it has become a strategic necessity. Although your team is currently well-versed in Windows environments, the lack of effective Linux capabilities creates a bottleneck when deploying modern, scalable web applications and storage solutions.

The Solution: This intensive 5-day program is tailored to bridge that skills gap. We go beyond teaching basic commands; we transform Windows-focused administrators into confident Linux System Engineers. By the end of this course, your team will have the proficiency to deploy secure web servers, manage networked storage, and, crucially, implement centralized identity management using Active Directory protocols on Linux.

Upon completing this training, participants will be able to:

• Deploy & Secure: Install Ubuntu Server from the ground up and secure it using industry-standard SSH practices.
• Manage Identity: (New) Configure and manage Active Directory services using Samba to centralize user accounts and authentication (LDAP).
• Automate: Write Bash scripts to automate repetitive maintenance tasks.
• Host: Deploy and maintain production-ready web servers (Apache/Nginx).
