A project about systems administration and networking.
Born2BeRoot consists of having you set up your first server following specific rules, using a virtual machine. It's a chance to gather informations and learn about various aspects of networking, systems administration also setting up a server without the use of a graphical interface and implementing strict rules on the users, groups, password policy and so on.
You're free to choose between Debian or CentOS, for the beginners such as myself Debian was the more reasonable choice since it's more user friendly than it's counterpart CentOS.
