Linux and Red Hat (RHCSA to RHCE): projects and labs
Learn by doing: labs for each module, a project for each level, a capstone and a project exam. Every step is checked, and your work stays on this device.
Beginner
- Lab1.5 h · 5 stepsLab: client folders for a CA firmA chartered accountant (CA) firm in Pune keeps each client's GST and income-tax papers in folders on a Linux server.

- Lab1.5 h · 5 stepsLab: accounts for a college computer labAn engineering college in Nagpur is setting up a Linux server for its computer lab. You create the student accounts and group, set a password policy, make a shared projects folder, give a teacher read-only access with an ACL, and let the lab assistant restart the print service with sudo, and nothing more.Not started
- Lab1.5 h · 5 stepsLab: keep a wholesaler's billing server healthyA grocery wholesaler in Indore runs its billing software on a small RHEL server.

- Project3 h · 7 stepsProject: a shared team folder for a CA firmA CA firm in Pune with five people wants one Linux file server. You set up the staff accounts, make an intern's account expire at the end of the financial year, build a shared clients folder where everyone can edit each other's files and the partner can only read, add a scans folder where nobody can delete another person's scans, and let the office manager shut the server down safely before a power cut.Not started

- Project4 h · 7 stepsProject: a rootless container service for an online spice shopA small online spice seller in Kochi wants its product catalogue served from a container, not installed straight on the server. You run Red Hat's Apache image as an ordinary user (rootless), keep the pages in a host folder with the right SELinux label, turn the container into a systemd user service with Quadlet, and make it start at boot without anyone logging in.Not started
- Capstone12 h · 12 stepsCapstone: build a small company's server end to endKonkan Exports, a 15-person cashew and spice exporter in Mumbai, needs one RHEL server for its office. You build it from a fresh install: name and time, staff accounts, LVM storage for shared files and backups, team folders, key-based SSH, an intranet web page with SELinux enforcing, the firewall, a nightly tar backup on a schedule, and an Ansible playbook that can check and rebuild the setup.Not started
- Project exam2.5 h · 10 tasksProject exam: RHCSA practiceA timed, hands-on practice exam in the style of the RHCSA (EX200). You get ten tasks to do on your own VM in two hours: system settings, users and sudo, a shared folder, cron, LVM, persistent mounts, swap, SELinux and the firewall for a web server on a new port, and an archive. For each task you paste the output of a command; no hints or answers are shown until you hand it in.Not taken
