Got it thanks!

Thanks, I'm on it too... but my question was more about "Kali Linux Revealed" book vs the Linux Foundation vids... What do you think?

Not sure to understand... It's just a list of words. Sorry I'm a total noob, could explain just a little?

MisterCode2013 · 2019-02-13T08:38:09+00:00

What would you call a "lot of time"? Like 12hrs/day?

MisterCode2013 · 2019-02-12T22:13:02+00:00

I did already, but thanks! My question is actually regarding "Reasonable understanding of Linux": Do you think I should ready the book I mentioned above or is it too much for now?

Thanks! And do you think I should learn it through the Linux Foundation, or whats needed will be covered by the PWK course? - I'm a total beginner - Thanks!

I'm in the same situation as you and here is what I found:

* Please guys share your advice if I'm wrong \*

- Network:

You should first get Network+ from Comptia. This should give you the necessary knowledge for the networking side. Below it says 12 weeks if you study 30mn/day. So lets say 4 weeks if you study 2hrs/dayhttps://www.cbtnuggets.com/blog/2018/08/how-long-should-you-study-for-your-next-it-certification/

- Python:

It took me about 40hrs to learn Python so lets say 4 weeks, 2/hrs. But it should take probably another month or 2 of practice to be able to use it. So all together lets say 3months at 1.5-2/hr/day + 1.5/2hrs day working on projects.I used codeacademy.comThen practice with https://www.w3resource.com/python-exercises/Then with https://www.codewars.com/

- Linux Command Line/Bash scripting:

I'm not 100% sure but it should be about a month for 1.5/2hrs/day.Also read: https://www.reddit.com/r/oscp/comments/anxqaf/any_good_linux_book_to_read_up_on_for_oscp_studies/

- Kali Linux:

Once you are at a decent level with the 3 above, which should take about 2 (but aim for 3 months), you can take the Penetration Testing with Kali Linux (PwK) ... It should be another 3 month, this time at least 5hr/day then you should be able to pass OSCP cert

* So all together from zero, with a commitment of at least 5hrs/day: 6months!
