16. man:-
This magic command brings up the online Unix manual. Use it on each of
the commands below, today! Wonder what all the man command options are?
Try the"man -k" option.
17. more
This shows the contents of text files. Also you might be able to find“less” and “cat” which are similar commands.
18.whereis
Think there might be a nifty program hidden somewhere? Maybe a game youlove? This will find it for you. Similar commands are “find” and “locate.”Try them all for extra fun.
19. vi
An editing program. You’ll need it to make your own files and when you
start programming while in your shell account. You can use it to write a
lurid file for people to read when they finger you. Or try “emacs.” It’s
another editing program and IMHO more fun than vi. Other editing programs
you may find include “ed” (an ancient editing program which I have used to
write thousands of lines of Fortran 77 code), “ex,” “fmt,” “gmacs,” you
may find include “ed” (an ancient editing program which I have used to
write thousands of lines of Fortran 77 code), “ex,” “fmt,” “gmacs,”
“gnuemacs,” and “pico.”
20. telnet
Telnet allows you to login remotely from a remote computer to a host
server running any unix or unix clone system. Other variation is called
RLOGIN/rlogin. A newer variation also allows you to login more securely
using the secure shell (SSH).
21. netstat
All sorts of statistics on your LAN, including all Internet connections.
For real fun, try “netstat -r” to see the kernel routing table. However,
be careful. I was teaching a friend the basics of summing up a Unix
system and I told her to do that and ‘ifconfig’. She was booted off the
system the next day for ‘hacker suspicion’ even though both are legitimate
commands for users.”
22. whois
Get lots of information on Internet hosts outside you LAN.
23. nslookup
Get a whole bunch more information on other Internet hosts.
24. dig
Even more info on other Internet hosts. Nslookup and dig are notredundant. Try to get a shell account that lets you use both.
25. finger
Not only can you use finger inside your LAN. It will sometimes get you
valuable information about users on other Internet hosts.
26.ping
Find out if a distant computer is alive and run diagnostic tests -- or
just plain be a meanie and clobber people with pings. (I strongly advise
*against* using ping to annoy or harm others.)
27.raceroute
Kind of like ping with attitude. Maps Internet connections, reveals
routers and boxes running firewalls.
