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!
When it comes to patching, were you aware that there’s more than one type of patch? In this episode of Enterprise Linux Security, Jay and Joao discuss the various types of patching that’s performed today.
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.

Open-Source is great – with code being open, everyone has access to it. That means that the code can be audited – and that makes it more secure, right? Well, possibly. In the recent talk “The Code is Open, But Who’s Looking at it?” Joao discusses the concept in detail. This talk was recorded at OSAD 2022. New episodes of Enterprise Linux Security will resume after the holidays. But for now, enjoy the talk!
While it’s certainly never a good thing to become the victim of a cyber-attack, it can be even more embarrassing if the CVE the threat actor used to get a foothold into your systems was patched a long time ago. In this episode, Jay and Joao discuss malware that’s currently taking advantage of vulnerabilities that were patched over a year ago! As important as software updates happen to be, why are so many organizations unable to keep up with them?
Virtual Machines and Containers are awesome, but when should you use one versus the other? In this episode, Jay and Talk about some of the deciding factors when it comes to deciding which technology to use.
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.
