NFS (Network File System) is a fantastic way to share files between Linux and UNIX machines. In this video, Jay walks you through the process of setting up an NFS server on Ubuntu, complete with a walkthrough on mounting the exports. Not only that, you’ll see how you can utilize AutoFS for on-demand mounting as well.
Were you every confused regarding the differences and use-cases between a hostname and domain name for a device within your network? How does naming your servers benefit you? In this latest episode of the Linux Crash Course series, we’ll explore some foundational concepts around both.
Every computer needs an operating system – and the Raspberry Pi is no different. Primarily, the Raspberry Pi boots from an SD card. But how do you write an operating system to that SD card? Well, if you’re just starting out – then this is the video for you!
With the Linux Crash Course series on LearnLinuxTV, you’ll learn everything you need to know in order to master the art of Linux. In each video, a single topic is covered in-depth. This time around, we take a look at the ls command – a command that many of you have probably already used, but there’s always more to learn!
Thanks to Linode for sponsoring today’s video! Definitely check them out – you can have your very own Linux server set up in mere minutes!
Recently, I decided to check out ThinLinc – a remote desktop solution for Linux. With client apps for Linux, macOS and Windows – it’s easy to set up and configure. In this tutorial, I’ll give you an overview of the solution and walk you through the process of setting it up. Please note that this is a tutorial/setup guide, and not a review.
When it comes to computing, it’s often said that the key to efficiency is to not repeat yourself. That’s true. Except for the the watch command – it’s intended use-case is to repeat a command over and over. Believe it or not, it can really come in handy. Learn all about the watch command by watching this watch tutorial.

While technologies such as Samba and NFS are very effective when you want to share files with other users, those solutions may not be best for those with simpler file sharing needs. In this video, sshfs is covered, which is a fuse-based solution that enables you to quickly share directories on your network.
Note: sshfs no longer has a maintainer, so don’t use this solution for confidential or proprietary files. Check out the repository and consider volunteering to maintain this awesome solution.

Thank you so much for checking out LearnLinuxTV’s Bash scripting series! In this video, the series winds down as Jay points you to some other resources you might want to utilize in order to continue your Linux Learning journey.
Backups – the most critical function of computing that virtually everyone ignores until they learn the hard way that they should’ve taken it more seriously. Don’t be that kind of person! You really should start taking backups seriously – so why not check out episode 17 of LearnLinuxTV’s Bash Scripting guide and learn how to back up files using a Bash Script? In fact, this is a fun video that you won’t want to miss.
There’s WAY too much arguing in the Linux community. Things like Systemd and whether it should be adopted, which desktop environment you should use, or which text editor is the best (the answer is clearly vim). But rather than argue over those things, why not learn how to supply arguments to your bash scripts? It’ll definitely be more worthwhile than obsessing over whatever Linux-related argument is currently being fussed about over on Reddit. So in this video, you’ll learn how to set up arguments in Bash scripts as well as some other fun concepts you should know.
In the previous episode, you learned about the “at” command, which enables you to schedule a script to run later. In this video, we’ll take a look at the same thing again – but it’s not redundant. Actually, we’ll learn more about Cron in this video, which is the tried and true method that Linux people use to handle scheduling jobs to run at a specific time in the future.
No matter how long you work in the IT field, waking up in the middle of the night to manually perform some sort of task is something that absolutely no one gets used to. And with good reason, it’s much better to schedule jobs rather than run them manually. In this video, we’ll learn about the “at” command which will help you set up a task to kick off at some point in the future.
