Do you provide them with some sort of shell account? Or does the school do that?

For security, have them install Linux, then go on IRC channels and brag about how inpenetrable their box really is.

Yeah, I got a copy of the course outline I'd probably call this more intermediate unix/linux administration.

Topics:
    System Administration
    Essential Administration Tools
    Startup, Shutdown and User Accounts
    Security
    Managing System Resources
    Automating Tasks with Scripts and such
    File Systems and Disks
    Backup and restore
    Terminals and Modems
    Printers and the Spooling Subsystems
    TCP/IP Network Management


Its a 4 hour class so working plan at the moment is:

20-45 minutes of lecture for new topic or more indepth on existing topic, record keeping feed back from last class assignments etc.
    1 hourish of hands on lab for next topic
30-45ish minutes of lecture/discussion including debreif of what they just did where they had problems as well as identifying the next work they need to do along with their take home homework. whatever time left will be for them to start on the assignment ask further questions get help etc.

Definitely gonna be breaks in between cause I know I can be wordy but not 4 hours of wordiness... that would probably either kill me or result in my untimely death...

This is the class Brian will be teaching - Advanced UNIX/Linux System
Administration

The only drawback to attending is the $495 cost. I teach the
non-advanced class. Most of my students are working for a company and
have some sort of sponsored tuition. The courses are part of a Linux
Certification path.

Brian - I spoke with my student who is taking the courses in reverse
order. He mentioned that the Advanced course was a lot like my course
but more "hands on." The instructor apparently involves the students
with the process of building a server from the ground up so to speak. If
I were you, I'd focus on some of the more advanced topics such as
security, recovery, auditing, etc. I won't be focusing on specific
services either, so you may wish to cover the installation and
configuration of Apache, BIND, mail, etc.

Okeee then, HAVE AT YOU!

I don't have a link.

I'd pay $ just to join and give Brian crap, though...
