Introduction This comprehensive video training course for RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 (RHEL 4) is one of the latest CBTs out there. It guides you into the intricacies of RHEL 4 which is one of the most widely used flavours of Linux in the business world. Technology moves at such a rapid pace, as such, most other Linux CBTs only cover RedHat 9 - which will be phased out soon due to the introduction of the Enterprise version. This huge CBT covers the basics of RHEL, through to the advanced topics and discusses latest technologies within this OS. It covers Installation, Systems Administration, Network Administration, Web/Database Admin, Mail Admin and Security Implementation Techniques. As its video training, you get to see each topic with real examples with real demonstrations and real simulations from the OS - not just screenshots or text - this makes digesting the material much more efficient. There is a HUGE amount covered on this DVD - over 65 hours worth! As its on DVD, its versatility means you can study when ever and where ever you have access to your PC/laptop - either at work or at home, moving at a pace that suits you. If you're looking for up-to-date RedHat training, rather than spending £2000 on a training course, this DVD is definitely a viable and cost effective alternative to sharpen your skills.
