First Draft Complete

Late this afternoon I completed the first draft of the last chapter in my book, “Using and Administering Linux.” This is book 1 in my two book series of courses, From Zero to Linux SysAdmin Self-Study.

This first book is scheduled for release in early 2020. For more details about this book, visit its page at, “Using and Administering Linux — From Zero to Linux SysAdmin — Self-Study – Book 1.” There you will find a link to its page at the Apress web site and its page on Amazon.

Book Update

David Both April 4, 2026

System upgrades this Sunday, May 3

Tools illustrationFedora 44 was released this week and I’ve upgraded all my systems except for the two that directly affect Both.org. I’ll be upgrading the hosts for my server and firewall to Fedora 44 this Sunday afternoon, May 3.

Both.org will be down for most of the afternoon for these upgrades.

Thanks for your patience.
