ITSC 1407 Unix I Home Page
Welcome to Unix I. This course will be conducted as shown in the syllabus unless circumstances dictate a change. Please note that there are scripting standards for this class. When we begin writing scripts later in the semester your scripts will be expected to conform to these standards.
This page contains the slides I use in class. They are saved as Adobe Acrobat .pdf files and were formatted using Adobe Acrobat version 4.0. If you need the latest version of the Adobe Acrobat reader, you can download it for free from: http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html
The slides are normally printed two per page so we don't kill too many trees :) and organized by topics by week. The topics in each week's slides are the same as shown in the course syllabus. I will update this site weekly with the latest set of lecture slides, so feel free to visit regularly. There are also supplimentary reading materials associated with some of the weeks. The student is expected to read this material before coming to a associated class. Note that the weeks listed on this page correspond to the Sunday section of Unix I.
I've gathered a set of Unix/Linux resource sites that may be useful as we study the various topics of the class. These links also provide access to historical sites for those interested in the history of Unix and various Linux sites for news, software, and technical information.
Last, but not least, is phred, the Underground Server maintained by Dr. Tim Gottleber here at NorthLake. phred has a number of resources available that may be of interest you you.
To download these slides to your computer, right click on the file you want and select "Save Link As..." if you are using Netscape or right click and select "Save Target As..." if you are using Internet Explorer.
