In this lesson: PAM and polkit, LDAP, Kerberos, SSSD, Winbind, and realm join, Samba, the systemd journal and rsyslog, logrotate, and the Linux audit system (auditctl, ausearch), with Pinecrest Media, a fictional video streaming company, as the running example. Includes three original practice questions.
