Learn the Ansible automation technology with some real-life examples in the Linux operating system.

Every successful IT department needs automation for bare metal servers, virtual machines, cloud, containers, and edge computing. Automate your IT journey with Ansible automation technology.

I will teach you, for example, how to manage users and groups in Linux and macOS operation systems, which are the most common helpful System Administrator tasks.

Each of the 35+ lessons summarizes a specific scenario about user and group management: creating a user, creating a new pair of a suitable SSH key and a home directory, changing a password and specifying the encryption cipher, removing the home directory and the mailbox, or assigning a special `no login` shell for temporarily disabled users. Another frequent user scenario is when you only need to disable and enable a user temporarily. Another useful administrator tool is group management, which assigns permission to resources to a bunch of users.

You could easily customize the example code with your username and use it in your everyday journey without additional effort. Some Ansible codes are usable in all the Linux distribution systems and macOS and are battle-tested for RedHat-like and Debian-like systems.
