For some months now, I’ve been trying to set up an Mbin instance, since as it’s more manual than the other softwares I found, and I understand things better if I can see the logic behind them. I’d rather do that before going for automated processes where if something breaks, I don’t know how to handle. However, trying to figure things out as I go, it’s so much stuff that I figured out instead what I knew was very little.
As I was also interested in hosting other sites, this made me reevaluate things, and turns out several things I don’t know, like how to host two sites in a same machine, how to handle horizontal attacks, what some tools are used for, etc.
So going back to the title, what to study? Maybe some specific book? Private classes/courses? Online tutorials? Something else? Just no university suggestion, please - from experience, they are extremely shallow at best.
Thanks in advance!


Networking. If you want to understand the reasoning behind things this is where you start. A good foundation in tcp/ip, the 7 layer network stack, as well as basic network protocols (dns, dhcp, http, etc.) will go a long way toward helping you troubleshoot when things go wrong.
Maybe throw in some operating systems study as well for when you start to use docker.
Thanks!
About studying about operating systems and docker, I think I know what you mean. I had come across some info on docker already, and it sounded like a system image, as you’d get on a VM or with dd, or a disc ISO or disk ROM dump.
Will make sure to look further into it!
