This repository is a large, curated set of Linux/*nix system administration questions and answers organized as an informal self-test. It spans fundamentals like filesystems, permissions, processes, and networking, then ventures into security, performance, virtualization, containers, and databases. The format encourages quick drills: pick a topic, answer from memory, then compare against concise explanations. Many questions highlight real-world troubleshooting patterns rather than purely theoretical trivia, reflecting what admins face daily. As an interview prep resource, it helps candidates assess breadth and identify weak spots before deeper study. For teams, it doubles as a training checklist to standardize baseline knowledge across junior and mid-level engineers.
