:This project-based subject will teach students how to install and configure a Linux server. Further, students will learn how to connect to and communicate over a network in a controlled environment. They will learn how to manage their files on their system and how to set-up file and directory permissions. Students will manage basic system security and firewall settings. In order to configure their system, students will gain knowledge of a few basic Unix/Linux commands and be exposed to 'Shell' basics. Finally students will work with both text and graphical user interfaces.

::# Need for consistency in following rules in case other OPS235 professors teach course when main OPS235 profs are on vacation (Consistent Cover-off) *OPS335 ::# '''Linux Commands'''. Students are not intuitively using the commands that they were exposed to in ULI101 and used in OPS235.<br ><br>Previous Meeting(s)::#'''AODA Accomodation'''. Two issues worth noting: student access to locked rooms (TEL Building) and accommodation to Linux OS (various distributions) for students with special needs (like Braille devices). It is recommended to make available for each lab or classroom a method to safely keep a door open while class is in session without propping the door open with a chair - If door is not opened, door is locked which can be a distraction for professors when delivering course material. If door is opened with propping chair, can be unsafe for students with special needs (for example blind students) and problems in the event of an emergency (for example: fire). Also, it has been noted challenges in providing Linux drivers to communicate with devices for individuals with special needs. These issues if solved should be shared in a central repository with support and suggestions to allow better access through a student's duration and with different instructors, staff.<br><br> :*OPS435:*OPS535[ [[OPS Professor Meeting - Discussion - November 2013]] ]

:* Long-Term [http::# '''Scripting for Lab1'''//zenit. Lab 1 could be modified to have students generate a report regarding the collection of Linux information after an installsenecac. Certainly command substitution could be taught and to reinforce redirection >> to add content to a filename (ion.eca/wiki/index. not over-ride). It would be interesting to expose students to the zenity command to allow a menu to give user choice of report elements to include in the generated report. Perhaps a link to a "fancy" Bash shell script to generate a web-page so students can view the contents in a nice format. This scripting element could easily be added to assignment #1. :* Wish List == php/OPS235 OPS235 Course Delivery Resources ==WIKI]
