The host os is Ubuntu and Vms are some ubuntu/debian and some Fedora/Redhat based servers. He has asked me to send him a weekly report of this work. I am sys admin guy who understands ssh,telnet,ftp,tftp,TCP I am not able to understand what should I write in report.Because all the servers are perfectly running and applications are also running on top of them and I am done with this.So basically from my part I do not have any ssh or ftp to write in a report like this.Can some one give me a link if there is some sample report that I should send.I am not able to understand what do I need to Google for the same.
