About this course

This class is ideal for experienced programmers and support staff, who have some experience of UNIX or Linux based systems, and who will be implementing further applications and systems.

The course is suitable for delegates wishing to use the Korn, Bourne or BASH shell on all versions of UNIX and Linux (e.g., AIX, Solaris, HPUX, Red Hat, SUSE etc...). The course comprehensively covers all three shells, but can focus on any one if required.
