Respected Everyone,

I have installed Debian 11 Bullseye on my Laptop and found the following
video tutorial.

https://youtu.be/wsh64rjnRas

Does this video tutorial coalign with Debian 11 Bullseye System
Administration?

I really need the latest tutorial.

Thank you. Regards
Adrian

Hi Adrian

I'm not sure that I can watch an entire seven hours to check :)

I'd almost suggest finding an old laptop / desktop - ideally
something you don't care about - and just installing and playing around 
with Debian for a while.

You don't say if you're doing this because you want to do an examination
in Linux system administration or just for fun. If you're doing it for
a specific job in systems admin. - you may find that the job uses 
Red Hat (which is different from Debian in some respects but readily
understandable). The Linux Professional Institute exams are cross-distribution
last time I looked.

All the very best, as ever,

Andy Cater

Why?  Unix system administration changes very slowly.  Most of the
core concepts haven't changed much since the early 1980s.

The only things that you need *urgently* are the steps to fix any
problems you're having *now*, or to add support/features that you
are missing *now*.  If you'd tell us what those issues are, we could
advise.

On a brand new Debian installation, especially on a laptop, the most
common issues are firmware & drivers for wireless networking, video
chipsets, and sometimes ethernet.  If you're having issues with
wireless networking not working, or your desktop environment failing
to load properly, or anything similar, it's probably in this ballpark.

If on the other hand all you want to know are common maintenance tasks
for a Debian system, any recently published version of the Debian Handbook
should be just fine.  The basics haven't changed much since systemd was
introduced as the default init system, back in Debian 8.

I disagree with this statement. Understanding a core concept will really 
help a lot, but will by far not be enough for solving a particular issue.
Most time learning how to get a problem fixed in a Linux system is in my 
experience spent on finding out that a receipt, with a high impact 
factor (founded in the past) and (therefore) staying available highly 
ranked somewhere on the internet for ever, simply does not work anymore. 
Once having found an update to it, or having found a meanwhile different 
approach, and having got my problem solved, I am prepared to next time 
find a solution a little bit faster - because I know already more about 
what might not work anymore, and especially know for which newer 
keywords better to watch out for and which older keywords to avoid. But 
there is so much material published in the internet, that it is getting 
more and more difficult to find relevant information.
Did in Linux and Debian the tools change, or did the concept change? 
Efficient is to learn right away the most up-to-date concepts and 
up-to-date tools, and both can be expected to go hand in hand. The OP is 
clearly asking for an up-to-date tutorial, and if finding it he can 
bypass a lot of frustration and will not lose so much time for figuring 
out which information out there in the internet is nowadays obsolete. 
The OP will just be well trained in short time.

So, I share the question of the OP. Does anybody with a sound knowledge 
on Debian has a profound, up-to-date tutorial to recommend, or would 
know if the one linked in the OP's question is indeed up-to-date and 
nicely Debian compatible?

Best wishes,
Marco
