List of linux commands

[Cuddles]

Now that I've gotten a little more "intellegent" with my knowledge of Linux, here are a few good commands to help those who are interested in what is "running" on there system, who is logged in on there system, and what "connections" are being "listened" to, and "established", on there systems:

ps -auxw
( to get a "top" listing of everything running on your system, services, programs, and "zombies", for all users )

netstat -natu
( to get a listing of "Active Internet connections (servers and established)" from your system )

rpcinfo -p
( to get a listing of all RPC processes from the portmapper, on the local system )

and lastly, from a friend,
users
( to get a list of all users currently logged in to your system )

Most of these commands have an associated man for them, and have additional command line switches for more information, or less, output - the man page will also explain a lot more of what the program "monitors", or outputs information for...

Hope, I do good, and no one else hasn't hit these before,
Ms. Cuddles

I'm not sure what you are asking for here.

Most of us already know that if you search Google for information on Linux that you will come up with more than you can ever read. You have apparently found a list of commands, and now posted a link to that in this forum in a thread about commands. And it's one of a very few threads that are "sticky', that is, they stay at the top of the forum and don't move down with age. I'm not clear on what more you would want a moderator to do.

The forum is a good place to ask questions, have discussions and exchange information. This website also includes a wiki, a user edited set of documentation on Knoppix. Any user can register and edit the wiki, not just moderators. Because it's organized more like a set of reference documents and not like a discussion forum, things in the wiki tend to be much easier to find. In general if one is posting information, I suggest updating the wiki and then putting a link to your work in these forums. I found that this is more efficient than retyping the information the next time someone asks the question rather than search through all of the forums, some of which have hundreds of pages of threads.

Of course, one should not post someone else's work in the wiki without their permission. In a case like this, it would be best to find an appropriate place and post the link, as you did here, not cut and paste the list of commands from someone else's site into the wiki.
