This program provides the student with knowledge on computer network administration with special emphasis on the Unix/Linux operating systems and also administration of the Oracle relational database management system. Medium to large scale companies typically have heterogeneous network environments. These companies will typically have many Windows desktop client machines, but store their critical data on one or more large Unix database servers. This course will provide the user with the standard knowledge of Microsoft Windows clients and server, administration of Unix/Linux servers, standard SQL syntax, and administration of the Oracle RDBMS.
