Linux Essentials for Web Developers : A Practical Guide to SSH, Files, Permissions, Networking, and Server Administration
Overview
You write code every day. But when you SSH into a server, do you freeze?
This book is not for Linux system administrators. It's for web developers who need to survive on a Linux server - check logs, manage files, restart services, and troubleshoot issues without calling for help every time.
What You'll Learn- SSH & Survival - Connect to servers, navigate the terminal, basic commands
- Files & Directories - Create, copy, move, search, and edit files
- Permissions - Understand "Permission denied," users, and groups
- Processes & Services - ps, kill, systemctl - keep services running
- Networking - Network commands, firewall rules, port management
- Disk & Monitoring - Disk usage, system info, log analysis
- Server Setup - Install JDK, Tomcat, and databases on Linux
- Shell Scripts - Automate repetitive tasks with bash
- Security & Troubleshooting - Server hardening and real-world debugging
Every topic is covered at the level web developers actually need - practical, hands-on, no unnecessary theory. You won't learn kernel internals or BGP routing. You will learn how to find logs, fix permissions, restart services, and get out of trouble on a production server.
16 chapters + 3 appendices including command cheat sheets, vi/vim reference, and shell script recipes.
Part of the "Essential Knowledge for Web Developers" series (Book 3).
