10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!
It's important for aspiring system administrators to have a handle on how to work with users accounts and groups to manage access to information. In this course, learn essential user and group management techniques and concepts involved in Linux administration, using Ubuntu. Instructor Scott Simpson explains how to create and modify user accounts and groups, configure and deploy pluggable authentication modules (PAM), and use LDAP for user authentication. He also covers authenticating clients with Kerberos. After reviewing these concepts, you'll be prepared to tackle the User and Group Management section of the LFCS exam.

Creating, modifying, and deleting user accounts
