CompTIA Linux+: Daemons & Processes

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. A crucial part of managing the Linux OS is controlling how processes and daemons run. The cron facility can be used to schedule maintenance tasks. Using cron to view and manage logs, including log forwarding, leads to a secure and performant Linux environment. Begin this course by discovering how processes and daemons work in Linux, and how to manage them using command line tools. Then you will explore Linux foreground and background jobs and find out how to schedule recurring tasks using cron. Next, you will view and manage Linux logs using logrotate. Finally, you will configure log forwarding using rsyslog. This course can be used to prepare for the Linux+ XK0-005 certification exam.
