Summary
This chapter was a sort of crash course on how to survive in Linux if you are unfamiliar with the operating system. This chapter was not about how to become a senior Linux administrator.
In your daily life as an administrator in Azure, you may not use everything in this chapter. For instance, you might not create users in a VM. But you should be able to verify users configured in an identity management system such as AD and verify that they are able to log in.
This chapter was all about using shells, the structure of the filesystem, and finding files. We looked at the role of text files in Linux and how to process and edit them. We worked with processes and saw how to view and kill them. And, last but not least, we looked at user and group management.
In the next chapter, we will discuss managing resources in Azure.
