What you should know
- [Instructor] Before we move on with this course, I want you to understand what you should know going into the course. First, you need to understand how to launch and type in a terminal session. We do this quite a bit in this course and you need to know how that works. Second, be an advanced user, or a beginning level systems administrator or desktop support technician. Third, understand what an executable file is. Scripts have to run and if you don't know that executable means there is a basic scripting course elsewhere in the library you should watch first. Fourth, you need a basic understanding that files have permissions so you can learn how to troubleshoot them in this course if they are incorrect. Lastly, you should have some basic scripting experience already under your belt. Not that much but enough to know that errors and problems are just a part of writing scripts and that you need to know some tricks for troubleshooting.
