border="0" /></a></div><br /><br /><br />There are actually viruses for Linux but they are rare. Linux is by default run at a more secure permission level than Windows. As long as you run as a regular user, malware can not install on the root unless you tell it to. Linux ask for permission before anything is installed whereas a Windows box does not unless you set up limited user accounts first. Linux is just harder to infect but it is not impossible as some would want you to believe. You should practice good security no matter what operating system you run or you are putting yourself at risk of infection.<br /><br />Savvy Windows users have to watch their virus checkers as closely as the head nurse in the ICU keeps an eye on patient monitors. Often, the buzz in the Windows security world is about which protection-for-profit firm was the first to discover and offer protection for the <em>malware du jour</em> -- or should I say <em>malware de l'heure</em>? The only thing better than having backed the winning Super Bowl team come Monday morning at the office coffeepot is having the virus checker you use be the one winning the malware sweepstakes that weekend.<br />If a rogue program finds a crack in your Windows armor, paying $200 per infection to have your machine scrubbed and sanitized by the local goon^H^H^H^H geek squad not only helps to reinforce the notion that you have to have malware protection, but that it has to be the right protection, too. The malware firms are aware of this, and all of their advertising plays upon the insecurity fears of Windows users and the paranoia that results. Chronic exposure and vulnerability to malware has conditioned Windows users to accept this security tax.<br />It's no wonder, then, that when Windows users are finally able to break their chains and experience freedom on a Linux desktop, they stare at me in disbelief when I tell them to lay that burden down. They are reluctant to stop totin' that load. They have come to expect to pay a toll for a modicum of security.<br />I try to explain that permissions on Linux make such tribute unnecessary. Without quibbling over the definitions of viruses and trojans, I tell them that neither can execute on your machine unless you explicitly give them permission to do so.<br />Permissions on Linux are universal. They cover three things you can do with files: read, write, and execute. Not only that, they come in three levels: for the root user, for the individual user who is signed in, and for the rest of the world. Typically, software that can impact the system as a whole requires root privileges to run.<br />Microsoft designed Windows to enable outsiders to execute software on your system. The company justifies that design by saying it enriches the user experience if a Web site can do "cool" things on your desktop. It should be clear by now that the only people being enriched by that design decision are those who make a buck providing additional security or repairing the damage to systems caused by it.<br />Malware in Windows Land is usually spread by email clients, browser bits, or IM clients, which graciously accept the poisoned fruit from others, then neatly deposit it on their masters' systems, where malware authors know it will likely be executed and do their bidding -- without ever asking permission.<br />Some malware programs require that you open an attachment. Others don't even require that user error. By hook or by crook, malware on Windows often gets executed, infecting the local system first, then spreading itself to others. What a terrible neighborhood. I'm glad I don't live there.<br />On Linux, there is built-in protection against such craft. Newly deposited files from your email client or Web browser are not given execute privileges. Cleverly renaming executable files as something else doesn't matter, because Linux and its applications don't depend on file extensions to identify the properties of a file, so they won't mistakenly execute malware as they interact with it.<br />Whether newcomers grok permissions or not, I try to explain the bottom line to them: that because they have chosen Linux, they are now free of having to pay either a security tax up front to protect themselves from malware, or one after the fact to have their systems sterilized after having been infected.<br />So Linux is bulletproof? No. Bulletproof is one of the last stages of drunkenness, not a state of security. Linux users, like users on every operating system, must always be aware of security issues. They must act intelligently to keep their systems safe and secure. They should not run programs with root privileges when they are not required, and they should apply security patches regularly.<br />Misleading claims and false advertising by virus protection rackets to the contrary, you simply don't need antivirus products to keep your Linux box free of malware.LINUX DOWNLOADS GAMES AND MUCH MOREhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01481076815977610265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5252612277969070516.post-7267820527727761972010-08-24T09:03:00.002-07:002010-08-24T09:04:35.056-07:00<b><span style="font-size: large;">Linux Secrets</span></b><br />Ahhh . . . But that's the thing about Linux and other Free and Open Source Software - there <i>are</i>no secrets.You can have the entire source code, so there are no hidden "easter eggs" and no hidden surprises. Or are there?<br /><b>The Big, Big Secret:</b><br />Look around you - if you can see devices like a personal video recorder, an ADSL modem/router, a VoIP phone, then the chances are you're using Linux, since many of these devices are powered by embedded Linux distributions. For example, in my office, I have a NetGear DG834 ADSL wifi router and Snom 320/360 IP phones, which are based on embedded Linux. The DG834 is quite "hackable" - there's a well-known trick for getting to the command prompt - so I can use Linux commands when problem-solving. The Linksys WRT54G router has been hacked to an even greater extent - there are complete replacement Linux distributions for it, offering improved features.<br />Many personal video recorders, such as the TiVo and theTopfield TF5000, run Linux, as do media centre devices. In many cases, these have been extended in various ways. You can even install Linux on an iPod, and do useful things with it.<br />That this is possible is due to the fact that Linux is open source; device developers can take the Linux kernel and cut out unnecessary subsystems, compiling it to produce a small image that will fit in the ROM. You don't need SCSI drivers? Take them out! You don't need any disk support at all? Rip it all out! And, of course, it helps that Linux has been portable across many different processors for a long time, so whether the device is based on a MIPS or Hitachi processor, you can still target it. In addition, becauseof the terms of the GNU Public Licence, if those hardware developers write driver code, they are required to release the source code, so that we can all benefit. This has worked well for all concerned - more than a few Linksys routers have been bought specifically because of their ability to run modified code.<br />But Linux is working for you, even when you're not using smart devices that use it internally. If your ISP provides you with an email account, the chances are your mail is delivered to and retrieved from a Linux server (or perhaps BSD, it's true). When you access popular web sites, the pages are often provided from a web accelerator operated by companies like Akamai and running on Linux. And of course, if you search the web using Google, you're using a massive cluster of Linux boxes.<br />So, the big secret? You're using Linux. Whether you knew it or not.LINUX DOWNLOADS GAMES AND MUCH MOREhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01481076815977610265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5252612277969070516.post-49813894682483245462010-08-24T09:03:00.001-07:002010-08-24T09:03:51.588-07:00<table class="mtable" style="width: 100%;" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1"><tbody><tr class="tcb wt ce"><td>Topic </td><td>Linux </td><td>Windows </td></tr> <tr><td class="tcw" align="center"><b>Price</b></td> <td class="green">The majority of Linux variants are available for free or at a much lower price than Microsoft Windows.</td> <td class="redcell">Microsoft Windows can run between $50.00 - $150.00 US dollars per each license copy.</td></tr> <tr><td class="tcw" align="center"><b>Ease</b></td> <td class="redcell">Although the majority Linux variants have improved dramatically in ease of use, Windows is still much easier to use for new computer users.</td> <td class="green">Microsoft has made several advancements and changes that have made it a much easier to use operating system, and although arguably it may not be the easiest operating system, it is still Easier than Linux.</td></tr> <tr><td class="tcw" align="center"><b>Reliability</b></td> <td class="green">The majority of Linux variants and versions are notoriously reliable and can often run for months and years without needing to be rebooted.</td> <td class="redcell">Although Microsoft Windows has made great improvements in reliability over the last few versions of Windows, it still cannot match the reliability of Linux.</td></tr> <tr><td class="tcw" align="center"><b>Software </b></td> <td class="redcell">Linux has a large variety of available <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/s/software.htm">software</a> programs, utilities, and games.

To celebrate the historic moment, I have collected some really interesting facts about the Linux kernel. So if you are a Linux fan, grab a beer and read on.<br /><br />1. A 21 year-old Finnish college student created the Linux kernel as a hobby. (Do you know him?)<br /><br />2. An <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9793_Torvalds">asteroid</a> was named after the creator of the Linux kernel.<br /><br />3. Thousands of developers/programmers scattered all around the world are continuously contributing to the development of the Linux kernel.<br /><br />4. The Linux kernel's official mascot is a penguin named Tux.<br /><br />5. According to a study funded by the European Union, the estimated cost to redevelop the most recent kernel versions would be at $1.14 billion USD.<br /><br />6. As of today, only 2% of the Linux kernel has been written by <a href="http://www.junauza.com/2007/10/geek-of-month-linus-torvalds.html">Linus Torvalds</a>.<br /><br />7. The Linux kernel is written in the version of the C programming language.<br /><br />8. Linux is now one of the most widely ported operating system kernels, running on a diverse range of systems from handheld computers to mainframe servers.<br /><br />9. Linux kernel 1.0.0 was released with 176,250 lines of code. The latest Linux kernel has over 10 million lines of code.<br /><br />10. Microsoft Windows and the Linux kernel can run simultaneously in parallel on the same machine using a software called <a href="http://www.colinux.org/">Cooperative Linux</a> (coLinux).<br /><br />11. At first, Torvalds wanted to call the kernel he developed Freax (a combination of "free", "freak", and the letter X to indicate that it is a Unix-like system), but his friend Ari Lemmke, who administered the FTP server where the kernel was first hosted for downloading, named Torvalds' directory linux.<br /><br />12. A guy name William Della Croce, Jr. trademarked the name Linux and eventually demanded royalties for its use. He later agreed to assign the trademark to Torvalds.<br /><br />13. The Linux kernel can be found on more than 87% of systems on the world's Top 500 supercomputers.<br /><br />14. A "vanilla kernel" is not an ice cream flavor but an unmodified version of the Linux kernel.<br /><br />15. The Linux Kernel is not in any way related to the army rank called ‘Colonel’.

I use my own annotations to recall useful options and arguments that are not necessarily documented in easy-to-find places. I quite often call up this file when I can't remember the syntax of a command that I use often (but not often enough to remember the syntax!). I also editorialize on the relative usefulness of different types of programs.<br /><br /><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc2" target=""> 2</a> Shorthand at the Command Prompt</h2>Some of these are specific to the bash shell. I have not experimented enough with other shells to know which are common to all shells. See also the ``Bash Reference Card'', SSC (2000), available online.<br /><br /><ul><li> / - root directory </li><li> ./ - current directory </li><li> ./command_name - run a command in the current directory when the current directory is not on the path </li><li> ../ - parent directory </li><li> <tt>~</tt> - home directory </li><li> $ - typical prompt when logged in as ordinary user </li><li> # - typical prompt when logged in as root or superuser </li><li> ! - repeat specified command </li><li> !! - repeat previous command </li><li> <tt>^^</tt> - repeat previous command with substitution </li><li> &amp; - run a program in background mode </li><li> <tt>[Tab][Tab]</tt> - prints a list of all available commands. This is just an example of autocomplete with no restriction on the first letter. </li><li> x[Tab][Tab] - prints a list of all available completions for a command, where the beginning is ``x'' </li><li> <tt>[Alt][Ctrl][F1]</tt> - switch to the first virtual text console </li><li> <tt>[Alt][Ctrl][Fn]</tt> - switch to the n^th virtual text console. Typically, there are six on a Linux PC system. </li><li> <tt>[Alt][Ctrl][F7]</tt> - switch to the first GUI console, if there is one running. If the graphical console freezes, one can switch to a nongraphical console, kill the process that is giving problems, and switch back to the graphical console using this shortcut. </li><li> <tt>[ArrowUp]</tt> - scroll through the command history (in bash) </li><li> <tt>[Shift][PageUp]</tt> - scroll terminal output up. This also works at the login prompt, so you can scroll through your boot messages. </li><li> <tt>[Shift][PageDown]</tt> - scroll terminal output down </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl][Alt][+]</tt> - switch to next X server resolution (if the server is set up for more than one resolution) </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl][Alt][-]</tt> - change to previous X server resolution </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl][Alt][BkSpc]</tt> - kill the current X server. Used when normal exit is not possible. </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl][Alt][Del]</tt> - shut down the system and reboot </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl]c</tt> - kill the current process </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl]d</tt> - logout from the current terminal </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl]s</tt> - stop transfer to current terminal </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl]q</tt> - resume transfer to current terminal. This should be tried if the terminal stops responding. </li><li> <tt>[Ctrl]z</tt> - send current process to the background </li><li> reset - restore a terminal to its default settings </li><li><tt>[Leftmousebutton]</tt> - Hold down left mouse button and drag to highlight text. Releasing the button copies the region to the text buffer under X and (if gpm is installed) in console mode. </li><li><tt>[Middlemousebutton]</tt> - Copies text from the text buffer and inserts it at the cursor location. With a two-button mouse, click on both buttons simultaneously. It is necessary for three-button emulation to be enabled, either under gpm or in XF86Config. </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc3" target=""> 3</a> Typical Dot Files</h2>There is some redundancy across these programs. For example, the look and behavior of emacs can be customized by usinng the .emacs file, but also by adding the appropriate modifications to the .Xdefaults file. Default versions of these files are often installed in users' home directories when the software packages that use them are installed. If a program doesn't find its configuration file in the user's home directory, it will often fall back on a sytem-wide default configuration file installed in one of the subdirectories that the package lives in. <br /><br /><ul><li> .bash_logout - file executed by bash shell on logout </li><li> .bash_profile - initialization of bash shell run only on login. Bash looks first for a .bash_profile file when started as a login shell or with the -login option. If it does not find .bash_profile, it looks for .bash_login. If it doesn't find that, it looks for .profile. System-wide functions and aliases go in /etc/bashrc and default environment variables go in /etc/profile. </li><li> .bashrc - initialization command run when bash shell starts up as a non-login shell </li><li> .cshrc - initialization commands that are run automatically (like autoexec.bat) when C shell is initiated </li><li> .emacs - configuration file for emacs editor </li><li> .fvwmrc - configuration file for fvwm window manager </li><li> .fvwm2rc - configuration file for fvwm2 window manager </li><li> .jedrc - configuration file for the jed text editor </li><li> .lessrc - typically contains key bindings for cursor movement with the less command </li><li> .login - initialization file when user logs in </li><li> .logout - commands run when user logs out </li><li> .wm_style - gives choice of default window manager if one is not specified in startx </li><li> .Xdefaults - sets up X resources for individual user. The behavior of many different application programs can be changed by modifying this file. </li><li> .xinitrc - initialization file when running startx. Can be used to activate applications, run a given window manager, and modify the appearance of the root window. </li><li> .xsession - configuration file for xdm </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc4" target=""> 4</a> Useful Files</h2><br /><ul><li> /boot/vmlinuz - the typical location and name of the Linux kernel. In the Slackware distribution, the kernel is located at /vmlinuz. </li><li> /dev/fd0 - first floppy disk drive </li><li> /dev/fd0H1440 - driver for the first floppy drive in high density mode. Generally, this is invoked when formatting a floppy drive for a particular density. Slackware comes with drivers that allow for formatting a 3.5" diskette with up to 1.7MB of space. Red Hat and Mandrake do not contain these device driver files by default. </li><li> /dev/fd1 - second floppy disk drive </li><li> /dev/hda - first IDE hard drive </li><li> /dev/hdc - on many machines, the IDE cdrom drive. Most often, there is a symbolic link called /dev/cdrom which is just a link to the true cdrom driver file. </li><li> /dev/null - used when you want to send output into oblivion </li><li> /etc/aliases - file containing aliases used by sendmail and other MTAs (mail transport agents). After updating this file, it is necessary to run the newaliases utility for the changes to be passed to sendmail. </li><li> /etc/bashrc - system-wide default functions and aliases for the bash shell </li><li> /etc/conf.modules - aliases and options for configurable modules </li><li> /etc/crontab - shell script to run different commands periodically (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) </li><li> /etc/DIR_COLORS - used to store colors for different file types when using ls command. The dircolors command uses this file when there is not a .dir_colors file in the user's home directory. Used in conjunction with the eval command (see below). </li><li> /etc/exports - specifies hosts to which file systems can be exported using NFS. Man exports contains information on how to set up this file for remote users. </li><li> /etc/fstab - contains information on partitions and filesystems used by system to mount different partitions and devices on the directory tree </li><li> /etc/HOSTNAME - stores the name of the host computer </li><li> /etc/hosts - contains a list of host names and absolute IP addresses. </li><li> /etc/hosts.allow - hosts allowed (by the tcpd daemon) to access Internet services </li><li> /etc/hosts.deny - hosts forbidden (by the tcpd daemon) to access Internet services </li><li> /etc/group - similar to /etc/passwd but for groups </li><li> /etc/inetd.conf - configures the inetd daemon to tell it what TCP/IP services to provide (which daemons to load at boot time). A good start to securing a Linux box is to turn off these services unless they are necessary. </li><li> /etc/inittab - runs different programs and processes on startup. This is typically the program which is responsible for, among other things, setting the default runlevel, running the rc.sysinit script contained in /etc/rc.d, setting up virtual login terminals, bringing down the system in an orderly fashion in response to <tt>[Ctrl][Alt][Del]</tt>, running the rc script in /etc/rc.d, and running xdm for a graphical login prompt (only if the default runlevel is set for a graphical login). </li><li> /etc/issue - pre-login message. This is often overwitten by the /etc/rc.d/rc.S script (in Slackware) or by the /etc/rc.d/rc.local script (in Mandrake and Red Hat, and perhaps other rpm-based distributions). The relevant lines should be commented out (or changed) in these scripts if a custom pre-login message is desired. </li><li> /etc/lilo.conf - configuration file for lilo boot loader </li><li> /etc/motd - message of the day file, printed immediately after login. This is often overwritten by /etc/rc.d/rc.S (Slackware) or /etc/rc.d/rc.local (Mandrake/Red Hat) on startup. See the remarks in connection with /etc/issue. </li><li> /etc/mtab - shows currently mounted devices and partitions and their status </li><li> /etc/passwd - contains passwords and other information concerning users who are registered to use the system. For obvious security reasons, this is readable only by root. It can be modified by root directly, but it is preferable to use a configuration utility such as passwd to make the changes. A corrupt /etc/passwd file can easily render a Linux box unusable. </li><li> /etc/printcap - shows the setup of printers </li><li> /etc/profile - sets system-wide defaults for bash shell. It is this file in Slackware that sets up the DIR_COLORS environment variable for the color ls command. Also sets up other system-wide environment variables. </li><li> /etc/resolv.conf - contains a list of domain name servers used by the local machine </li><li> /etc/securetty - contains a list of terminals on which root can login. For security reasons, this should not include dialup terminals. </li><li> /etc/termcap - ASCII database defining the capabilities and characteristics of different consoles, terminals, and printers </li><li> /etc/X11/XF86Config - X configuration file. The location in Slackware is /etc/XF86Config. </li><li> /proc/cpuinfo - cpu information </li><li> /proc/filesystems - prints filesystems currently in use </li><li> /proc/interrupts - prints interrupts currently in use </li><li> /proc/ioports - contains a list of the i/o addresses used by various devices connected to the computer </li><li> /proc/kcore - The command ls -l /proc/kcore will give the amount of RAM on the computer. It's also possible to use the free command to get the same information (and more). </li><li> /proc/version - prints Linux version and other info </li><li> /var/log/messages - used by syslog daemon to store kernel boot-time messages </li><li> /var/log/lastlog - used by system to store information about last boot </li><li> /var/log/wtmp - contains binary data indicating login times and duration for each user on system </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc5" target=""> 5</a> Important Directories</h2>Different distributions have different directory structures, despite attempts at standardization such as the the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) organization.<br /><br /><ul><li> /bin - essential UNIX commands such as ls, etc. Should contain all binaries needed to boot the system or run it in single-user mode </li><li> /boot - files used during booting and possibly the kernel itself are stored here </li><li> /dev - contains device files for various devices on system </li><li> /etc - files used by subsystems such as networking, NFS, and mail. Includes tables of disks to mount, processes to run on startup, etc. </li><li> /etc/profile.d - contains scripts that are run by /etc/profile upon login. </li><li> /etc/rc.d - contains a number of shell scripts that are run on bootup at different run levels. There is also typically an rc.inet1 script to set up networking (in Slackwar), an rc.modules script to load modular device drivers, and an rc.local script that can be edited to run commands desired by the administrator, along the lines of autoexec.bat in DOS. </li><li> /etc/rc.d/init.d - contains most of the initialization scripts themselves on an rpm-based system. </li><li> /etc/rc.d/rc*.d - where ``*'' is a number corresponding to the default run level. Contains files for services to be started and stopped at that run level. On rpm-based systems, these files are symbolic links to the initialization scripts themselves, which are in /etc/rc.d/init.d. </li><li> /etc/skel - directory containing several example or skeleton initialization shells. Often contains subdirectories and files used to populate a new user's home directory. </li><li> /etc/X11 - configuration files for the X Window system </li><li> /home - home directories of individual users </li><li> /lib - standard shared library files </li><li> /lib/modules - modular device driver files, most with .o extensions </li><li> /mnt - typical mount point for many user-mountable devices such as floppy drives, cd-rom readers, etc. Each device is mounted on a subdirectory of /mnt. </li><li> /proc - virtual file system that provides a number of system statistics </li><li> /root - home directory for root </li><li> /sbin - location of binaries used for system administration, configuration, and monitoring </li><li> /tmp - directory specifically designed for programs and users to store temporary files. </li><li> /usr - directory containing a number of subdirectory with programs, libraries, documentation, etc. </li><li> /usr/bin - contains most user commands. Should not contain binaries necessary for booting the system, which go in /bin. The /bin directory is generally located on the same disk partition as /, which is mounted in read-only mode during the boot process. Other filesystems are only mounted at a later stage during startup, so putting binaries essential for boot here is not a good idea. </li><li> /usr/bin/X11 - most often a symbolic link to /usr/X11R6/bin, which contains executable binaries related to the X Window system </li><li> /usr/doc - location of miscellaneous documentation, and the main location of program documentation files under Slackware </li><li> /usr/include - standard location of include files used in C programs such as stdio.h </li><li> /usr/info - primary location of the GNU info system files </li><li> /usr/lib - standard library files such as libc.a. Searched by the linker when programs are compiled. </li><li> /usr/lib/X11 - X Window system distribution </li><li> /usr/local/bin - yet another place to look for comon executables </li><li> /usr/man - location of manual page files </li><li> /usr/sbin - other commands used by superuser for system administration </li><li> /usr/share - contains subdirectories where many installed programs have configuration, setup and auxiliary files </li><li> /usr/share/doc - location of program documentation files under Mandrake and Red Hat </li><li> /usr/src - location of source programs used to build system. Source code for programs of all types are often unpacked in this directory. </li><li> /usr/src/linux - often a symbolic link to a subdirectory whose name corresponds to the exact version of the Linux kernel that is running. Contains the kernel sources. </li><li> /var - administrative files such as log files, used by various utilities </li><li> /var/log/packages - contains files, each of which has detailed information on an installed package in Slackware. The same file can also be found at /var/adm/packages, since the adm subdirectory is a symbolic link to log. Each package file contains a short description plus a list of all installed files. </li><li> /var/log/scripts - package installation scripts in Slackware are stored here. You can inspect these scripts to see what special features are included in individual packages. </li><li> /var/spool - temporary storage for files being printed, mail that has not yet been picked up, etc. </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc6" target=""> 6</a> Important Bash Shell Variables</h2>These variables are most often inherited or declared when a shell is started. A great reference for bash shell variable, bash builtin commands, and bash in general is SSC (2000).<br /><br /><ul><li> HOME - home directory, abbreviated as <tt>~</tt> </li><li> MAIL - name of file that mail is stored in (<em>mailbox</em>) </li><li> MAILCHECK - sets the frequency at which bash checks for mail </li><li> PATH - directory paths to search for executable files. According to <em>A Practical Guide to Linux</em>, p.329, the PATH is set in /etc/profile. On my Linux box, /etc/profile adds /usr/X11R6/bin to the path, which means that the path must be set before by another configuration file. The .bash_profile file in my home directory adds /home/ambler/bin to the path. On my Linux box, the first command to set the path would seem to be in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, which is one of the shell scripts invoked by the init process (inittab). Then, /etc/profile adds /usr/X11R6/bin. Finally, .bash_profile adds /home/ambler/bin. </li><li> PS1 - prompt string. Things that can be put in the prompt string include <tt>\</tt>h (hostname), <tt>\</tt>u (username), <tt>\</tt>w (absolute pathname of working directory), <tt>\</tt>W (name of working directory w/o path), <tt>\</tt>d (date), <tt>\</tt>t (time). See p.331 of <em>A Practical Guide to Linux</em> for more details. On my Red Hat boxes, the primary prompt string is set in the /etc/bashrc file. The prompt is also set in /etc/profile, but the setting in bashrc seems to take precedence. I also have a .bashrc file, which in turn runs /etc/bashrc, which sets the prompt. This means that the same prompt is used by xterm and rxvt in X sessions. On my Slackware box, the command line prompt is set in /etc/profile. The xterm and rxvt prompts are different, since I don't have a .bash_profile file which is run when an xterm is started. In fact, I don't know where the prompt is set in X sessions. It is not set by /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm. </li><li> PS2 - secondary prompt string. </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc7" target=""> 7</a> Important Daemons and Startup Services</h2>These are programs or processes which are run at boot time. Some remain in memory to execute various tasks when required (daemons). Most are started and stopped with scripts in the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory (see above). The exact contents of this directory will depend on which packages from a particular distribution are installed. For example, installing the Apache package will cause an httpd script to be placed in /etc/rc.d/init.d.<br />There are man pages on most of these. The Red Hat program tksysv (ntsysv is the non graphical version) allows root to automatically configure which of these are started automatically at boot time. The linuxconf program does the same thing, although I haven't tried it. The utility chkconfig is also designed to query and configure runtime services for different runlevels. The <tt>www.mandrakeuser.org</tt> site has a good page on common services/daemons, especially those included in recent versions of the Mandrake distribution.<br />A good source of information on daemons and services is the ``Linux Devices, Daemons, Services'' chapter of the CTDP (2000a) document.<br /><br /><ul><li> amd - runs the automount daemon for remote filesystem mounting such as nfs </li><li> anacron - checks delayed `cron' tasks (see below) at boot time and executes them. Useful if you have cron jobs scheduled but don't run your machine all the time. </li><li> apmd - Advanced Power Management BIOS daemon. For use on machines, especially laptops, that support apm. Monitors battery status and can shut down the system if power is too low. </li><li> arpwatch - keeps watch for ethernet IP address pairings that are resolved using the ARP protocol. </li><li> atd - runs jobs queued by `at' </li><li> autofs - control the operation of automount daemons, used to mount and unmount devices on demand </li><li> bootparamd - allows computers to boot from a Linux machine using the BOOTP network protocol. A server process that provides information to diskless clients necessary for booting </li><li> crond - automatic task scheduler. Manages the execution of tasks that are executed at regular but infrequent intervals, such as rotating log files, cleaning up /tmp directories, etc. </li><li> cups - daemon for print services under the Common Unix Printer System, a replacement for lpd </li><li> dhcpd - implements the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and the Internet Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP). Used to lease out IP addresses to remote machines. </li><li> drakfont - font server in Mandrake </li><li> fetchmail - daemon to fetch mail at regular intervals from mail servers </li><li> ftpd - ftp server daemon </li><li> gated - routing daemon that handles multiple routing protocols and replaces routed and egpup </li><li> gpm - useful mouse server for applications running on the Linux console. </li><li> httpd - the Apache webserver hypertext transfer protocol daemon </li><li> identd - The identd server provides a means to determine the identity of a user of a particular TCP connection. Given a TCP port number pair, it returns a character string which identifies the owner of that connection on the server's system. </li><li> inetd - listens for service requests on network connections, particularly <em>dial-in</em> services. This daemon can automatically load and unload other daemons (ftpd, telnetd, etc.), thereby economizing on system resources. In the latest version of Red Hat (7.0 at the time of writing), it has been replaced by xinetd. A partial list of services controlled by inetd is listed below. Under many distributions, inetd will execute scripts in the file /etc/inetd.conf. </li><li> innd - Usenet news server daemon </li><li> ipchains - daemon for packet forwarding. Used for configuring a gateway/firewall. </li><li> isdn provides ISDN network interfacing services </li><li> isdn4linux - for users of ISDN cards </li><li> kerneld - automatically loads and unloads kernel modules </li><li> keytable - loads the appropriate keyboard map from /etc/sysconfig/ keyboard </li><li> kheader - </li><li> kudzu - detects and configures new or changed hardware during boot </li><li> linuxconf - ``startup hook'' needed for the linuxconf system configuration tool </li><li> lpd - line printer and print spooler daemon </li><li> mcserv - server program for the Midnight Commander networking file system. It provides access to the host file system to clients running the Midnight file system (currently, only the Midnight Commander file manager). If the program is run as root the program will try to get a reserved port otherwise it will use 9876 as the port. If the system has a portmapper running, then the port will be registered with the portmapper and thus clients will automatically connect to the right port. If the system does not have a portmapper, then a port should be manually specified with the -p option (see below). </li><li> mysql - database server daemon </li><li> named - provides DNS services </li><li> netfs - network filesystem mounter. Used for mounting nfs, smb and ncp shares on boot. </li><li> network -activates all network interfaces at boot time by calling scripts in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts </li><li> nfsd - used for exporting nfs shares when requested by remote systems </li><li> nfslock - starts and stops nfs file locking service </li><li> numlock - locks numlock key at init runlevel change </li><li> pcmcia - generic services for pcmcia cards in laptops </li><li> portmap - needed for Remote Procedure Calls </li><li> postfix - mail transport agent which is a replacement for sendmail. Now the default on desktop installations of Mandrake. </li><li> postgresql - database server daemon </li><li> random - random number generating daemon, related to security and encryption </li><li> routed - manages routing tables </li><li> rstatd - kernel statistics server. Allows users on a network to get performance statistics for any connected machine. </li><li> rusersd - provides services that allow users to find one another over the network </li><li> rwalld - allows users to use rwall to write messages on remote terminals </li><li> rwhod - server which maintains the database used by the rwho(1) and ruptime(1) programs. Its operation is predicated on the ability to broadcast messages on a network. </li><li> sendmail - mail transfer agent. This is the agent that comes with Red Hat. Others, such as smtpd, are not included. </li><li> smb - needed for running SAMBA </li><li> snmpd - provides Simple Network Management Protocol support </li><li> sound - daemon for managing sound </li><li> squid - web page proxy server daemon </li><li> syslogd - manages system log files </li><li> smtpd - Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, designed for the exchange of electronic mail messages. Several daemons that support SMTP are available, including sendmail, smtpd, rsmtpd, qmail, zmail, etc. </li><li> tcpd - from the tcp_wrappers package. Intercepts requests normally handled by inetd and filters them through the files hosts.allow and hosts.deny files, which can restrict access to services based on type of service, origin of request, destination, etc. Requests are intercepted because calls to particular services are replaced with calls to tcpd in /etc/inetd.conf. </li><li> telnetd - telnet server daemon </li><li> usb - daemon for devices on Universal Serial Bus </li><li> xfs - X font server </li><li> xinetd - more modern replacement for inetd. It apparently allows for similar kinds of access filters to the ones used by tcpd in conjunction with inetd. xinetd replaces inetd as the default network services daemon in Red Hat 7.0. </li><li> xntpd - Network Time Protocol daemon. Provides a means to syncronize time over the network. </li><li> webmin - daemon for webmin web-based system administration program </li><li> ypbind - NIS binder. Needed if computer is part of Network Information Service domain. </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc8" target=""> 8</a> Window Managers</h2>The ``Window Managers for X'' site is extremely useful for keeping track of new Linux window managers. See <a href="http://winman.org/" mce_href="http://winman.org/" target=""><tt>http://winman.org</tt></a>.<br /><br /><ul><li> Afterstep - Based on Fvwm. Designed to give a similar look and feel to the NextStep interface. </li><li> AnotherLevel - a custom configuration for fvwm2 which mimics the look and feel of Windows95. </li><li> Blackbox - a light, fast, window manager. It doesn't clutter the screen with too much junk, but it gets the job done efficiently. </li><li> CDE - Common Desktop Environment. This is the default window manager on many commercial Unix systems. There is no free version. </li><li> Enlightenment - Very configurable, and probably the coolest looking window manager, but a bit of a resource hog. </li><li> Flwm - Fast, Light Window Manager. It has very few features, but is very small. </li><li> Fvwm - F (?) Virtual Window Manager. This, along with Fvwm2, are old standbies in the Linux world. They are quite configurable, but configuration involves editing text files which are sometimes obscure. </li><li> Fvwm2 - newer version of above. </li><li> Fvwm95 - implementation of Fvwm2 configured to look and feel like Windows 95. </li><li> Gnome - Gnome desktop environment. A themable collection of desktop utilities that can be used with different window managers. The current default window manager for a gnome session is Sawfish. </li><li> Icewm - Ice Window Manager. Very small, very fast, quite configurable. On low memory/small hard drive machines, this one is my favorite. Configuration involves editing text files, but the syntax is extremely easy to understand. There are also a couple of third-party programs available which allow the user to configure Icewm using a graphical interface. </li><li> KDE - K Desktop Environment. Many of the desktop utilities can be run under different window managers. I may be wrong, but I believe kikbd is the only program out there that allows the user to reconfigure the keyboard layout to different national keyboards on the fly, with one-click switching from one to the other. Unfortunately, this utility is no longer available under KDE 2.x. </li><li> Kwm - the window manager that comes with the KDE desktop environment. </li><li> Mwm - Motif window manager. </li><li> Olwm - Open Look window manager. </li><li> Sawfish - a small, efficient, configurable window manager that is now the default window manager with Gnome. </li><li> Twm - Tab window manager. </li><li> UDE - Unix Desktop Environment. In early development stages. An attempt to create a new type of desktop environment for Unix machines, including Linux. </li><li> Windowmaker - One of the more popular window managers. Highly configurable and themable. </li><li> XFce - ``Cholesterol-Free Desktop Environment''. Includes its own window manager, a toolbar, a sound manager, a background manager, and a file manager. It has tearoff menus, up to twelve virtual desktops, etc. It is completely configurable with menus. Its toolbar looks like the one in CDE. I find it easy to use and to configure, and easy on system resources. </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc9" target=""> 9</a> Alphabetical List of Principal Commands</h2>In the following command list, the distinction between upper case and lower case letters <em>is</em> important. Most of the commands are utilities that are run by invoking their own executable files. In some cases, they are commands which are internal to a shell such as bash (shell builtins). The shell builtins are indicated. There are now many utilities that are included with either the Gnome or the KDE desktop environments, so many that it would be difficult to include them all here. In many cases, they duplicate the functionality of one or more of the programs listed below. I would suggest consulting the online documentation for these packages.<br />Another good source of information on commands is the CTDP (2000b) document. There are different chapters which group commands in different categories.<br />On rpm-based systems, to find out which package owns the command <tt>foo</tt> (where <tt>foo</tt> is a standalone executable), use the command <tt>rpm -q -f foo</tt>.<br /><br /><ul><li> a2p - translation utility from awk to Perl </li><li> a2ps - translation utility from ``any'' to Postscript </li><li> ac - print statistics concerning user connect time </li><li> access - determine whether a file can be accessed </li><li> acroread - Adobe utility for viewing pdf files </li><li> adduser - used by root to add user to system <ul><li> usage: adduser <em>userid</em> </li></ul></li><li> afio - utility to copy or restore files to an archive file.

See getty, mgetty, and uugetty. </li><li> ali - list mail aliases </li><li> alias - assign name to specified command list. This is actually a shell builtin. On my Red Hat system, I have global alias commands in my /etc/bashrc file and in my /.bashrc file. On my Slackware box, I have made the rm command a little bit safer with <ul><li> alias rm='rm -i' </li></ul>so that you can't recursively delete your /dev directory without telling the system you're sure you want to do it.<br /></li><li> alien - utility to convert to and from different Linux package formats.

This is a fairly sophisticated print filter. It is not set up by default in Slackware. It used to be available on the second cd of a Slackware distribution. Since 4.0, it is available as one of the main packages in the ap set. Read the mail that the installation program sends to the root user. I believe that Red Hat uses its own printer filters. </li><li> ar - create, modify and extract from archives </li><li> arch - print machine architecture type </li><li> as - the portable GNU assembler </li><li> asapm - AfterStep laptop advanced power management utility </li><li> ash - a shell, a very simple shell program sometimes used on boot diskettes since it takes up much less space than bash, tcsh, zsh, etc. </li><li> asload - AfterStep cpu load monitor </li><li> asmail - AfterStep mail checking utility </li><li> asmodem - AfterStep utility to monitor modem status </li><li> aspell - a spell checking program along the lines of ispell </li><li> aspostit - X Window postit note utility </li><li> at - executes a shell script at specified time.

Can be used to change the group associated with subdirectories and files of a directory. <ul><li> usage: chgrp <em>group files</em> </li><li> or: chgrp -R <em>group files</em> </li></ul></li><li> chkconfig - Query or update system services/daemons for different runlevels. Manipulates the various symbolic links in /etc/rc.d. This utility is included with many rpm-based distributions such as RedHat and Mandrake. It is designed to work with System V initialization scripts. Graphical tools for configuring system services include ntsysv, tksysv and ksysv (the latter is a KDE utility). </li><li> chmod - set permissions (modes) of files or directories. A value of 4 is used for read permission. A value of 2 is used for write permission. A value of 1 is used for execute permission. See umask for default file permissions upon file creation. Chmod can also be used to change the suid bit on files. The syntax for the symbolic version is <ul><li> chmod [options] who operation permission file-list </li></ul>The syntax for the absolute version is<br /><ul><li> chmod [options] mode file-list </li></ul>To set the uid to the owner's permissions, use<br /><ul><li> chmod u +s file-name </li></ul>To set the uid to the group's permissions, use<br /><ul><li> chmod g +s file-name </li></ul>There are lots of security issues related to allowing a program to have root's permissions when run by an ordinary user. I don't pretend to understand all of these issues.<br /></li><li> chown - changes ownership of a file. Can be used recursively. <ul><li> usage: chown <em>userid files</em> </li><li> or: chown -R <em>userid files</em> </li></ul></li><li> chsh - change default shell </li><li> ci - creates or records changes in an RCS file </li><li> clear - clear screen command </li><li> cmp - compares two files for differences <ul><li> usage: cmp <em>file1 file2</em> </li></ul></li><li> co - retrieves an unencoded version of an RCS file </li><li> comm - compares sorted files </li><li> configure - automatically configures software source code </li><li> color-xterm - color xterm program.

Recursive copying is one simple way of archiving part of a directory structure. Use the command as follows: <ul><li> cp -r /sourcedirectory /targetdirectory </li></ul></li><li> cpio - direct copy of files to an output device. Allows creation of archive file spanning multiple diskettes. Allows one directory structure to be mirrored elsewhere on the partition or on another partition. In order to back up an entire directory structure on diskettes, cd to the directory and use the following command: <ul><li> find . -depth -print <span style="font-family:symbol;">|</span> cpio -ov > /dev/fd0 </li></ul>To restore from diskettes, use:<br /><ul><li> cpio -iv < /dev/fd0 </li></ul>The cpio command will prompt the user to insert more diskettes as they are needed. The command for mirroring a directory structure is the following:<br /><ul><li> find . -depth -print <span style="font-family:symbol;">|</span> cpio -pv /destinationdirectory </li></ul>This copies the working directory and its contents, including subdirectories, into /destinationdirectory. In order to copy an individual file which is larger than a floppy, use:<br /><ul><li> find . -name nameoffile -print <span style="font-family:symbol;">|</span> cpio -iv > /dev/fd0 </li></ul></li><li> cpkgtool - Slackware tool to install, uninstall and query packages.

See the man page for dip. </li><li> dir - a variation of the GNU ls command that defaults to printing file names in columns </li><li> dircolors - set colors for GNU ls command. In Slackware, this command is run by the /etc/profile script. Then, whenever xterm is run with the -ls (login shell) option, ls displays different colors for different types of files. Typical usage is eval `dircolors -b`. In Red Hat and Mandrake, I get color directories by aliasing the ls command (see below). </li><li> display - set display for output of programms under X Windows. Can be used to run a program on a remote machine while displaying the output on a local machine. The remote machine must have permission to send output to the local machine. This is actually an environment variable. See the more detailed discussion in connection with the xhost command below. </li><li> dmesg - displays messages from /var/log relative to the most recent boot </li><li> dos - invoke the DOSEMU DOS emulator </li><li> du - displays information on disk usage.

Can be used instead of lilo to boot multiple operating systems. I encountered a couple of snafus trying to install grub on my home machine after installing Mandrake 8.0 and choosing the lilo bootloader during the initial install. The Mandrake installation program set up /boot/vmlinuz as a symlink to the actual kernel, vmlinuz-2.4.3-20mdk. It took me a while to figure out that grub doesn't understand symbolic links. The documentation suggests installing grub on a diskette using the ``dd'' command. This refused to work, but <ul><li> grub-install '(fd0)' </li></ul>did work. The single quotes are necessary. The files necessary to run grub are normally located in /boot/grub. Once the file menu.lst has been edited and appropriated entries added to boot the different operating systems on one's hard disk(s), the following sequence of commands can be used to install grub in the master boot record (MBR) sector of the hard disk: <br /><ul><li> root (hd0,<em>x</em>) </li><li> setup (hd0) </li></ul>Here, the <em>x</em> should be replaced by the partition where the /boot/grub directory is located, which is probably the root partition of the Linux system. Note that grub has its own conventions for naming devices and numbering partitions, so that for example a partition which is called hda6 under Linux will be called (hd0,5) by grub.<br /></li><li> grub-install - command to install grub on the hard drive (or floppy drive). </li><li> gunzip - used to uncompress files compressed with gzip </li><li> gv - PostScript and PDF previewer, based on ghostview </li><li> gvim - see vi </li><li> gzexe - compresses executables </li><li> gzip - used to compress or decompress files </li><li> halt - shut down system as root, without reboot, immediately </li><li> hash - remembers the location of commands in the search path.

Ldconfig checks the header and file names of the libraries it encounters when determining which versions should have their links updated. Ldconfig ignores symbolic links when scanning for libraries. </li><li> ldd - list the shared libraries on which a given executable depends, and where they are located </li><li> leave - display reminder at specified time </li><li> less - Linux alternative to ``more'' command. Displays text files, one screenful at a time. When less pauses, there is a large number of available commands to tell it what to do next. One can scroll both forwards and backwards. </li><li> let - evaluates a numeric expression. This is a shell builtin. </li><li> lilo - installs boot loader on the boot sector of a hard drive, of a diskette, or in another location. My 486 has a hard drive that is too large for the machine's BIOS, so I have to boot from a floppy. To create a boot diskette, I do the following (as root): <ul><li> /sbin/fdformat /dev/fd0H1440 </li><li> /sbin/mkfs.ext2 /dev/fd0 </li><li> mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy </li><li> cp -dp /boot/* /mnt/floppy </li><li> /sbin/lilo -C /etc/lilo.flop </li></ul>The -C option to lilo has lilo use the lilo.flop file instead of the default lilo.conf.<br /></li><li> linuxconf - interactive tool for configuring Linux system. Uses X if loaded. This is a Gnome tool. It comes with my Red Hat distribution, and is not included with Slackware. It would seem to be the easiest way to configure Linux under Slackware.

Gives package information and a file list for the package foo. </li><li> rpm -qfil foo. Gives package information and a file list for the package that owns the file foo. Foo must be in the working directory, or the full path to foo must be specified. </li></ul>We need to find out about installing the rpm package on a Slackware box. It's probably better to use a package converter such as alien.<br /></li><li> rpm2tgz - an extremely useful utility on Slackware systems that converts rpm packages to tgz format.

Also a tool for processing text files. </li><li> set - set or display value of shell variables. This is a shell builtin. The command <ul><li> set | less </li></ul>prints the current user environment, giving the values of currently defined variables.<br /></li><li> setenv - set or display value of environment variables </li><li> setserial - used by root to configure a serial port </li><li> setterm - set terminal attributes for a virtual console </li><li> setuid - set the id of a program when it is run. Used, for example, to give root privileges to a program run by an ordinary user. This is actually done by running the chmod program as root. See the chmod command for the syntax. </li><li> setup - Slackware program to set up program sets and configure system. Setup devices and file systems, mount root file system </li><li> sh - standard UNIX shell. On Linux, just another name for bash. </li><li> shift - promotes each command-line argument. This is a shell builtin. </li><li> showmount - show information about an nfs server </li><li> shutdown - reboot or shut down system as root, after specified amount of time. With the -r option, reboot. With the -h option, halt the system. <ul><li> usage: shutdown -r <em>minutes</em> </li></ul></li><li> sleep - creates process that sleeps for specified interval </li><li> sliplogin - attaches a SLIP interface to standard input. Used to allow dialin SLIP connections. </li><li> sort - sorts and/or merge files </li><li> split - split file into specified number of segments </li><li> ssh - secure shell. Apparently has many of the same functionalities as rlogin, telnet, ftp, rsh, etc., with better security and encryption features. We may want to learn how to set this up and use it. </li><li> startx - front end to xinit in Linux. This is a script which starts up X clients and shuts down the X server on exit from the window manager. </li><li> startx <tt>--</tt> :1 - start the next X window session on the display 1 (the default is opened on display 0). One can switch between different graphical displays using <tt>[Ctrl][Alt][F7]</tt>, <tt>[Ctrl][Alt][F8]</tt>, etc. </li><li> stty - sets or displays operating options for terminal </li><li> su - log in as another user, including root </li><li> sudo - allows individual users to have root permission to perform specified tasks </li><li> swapoff - disables swap disk </li><li> swapon - enables swap disk </li><li> symlinks - provide list of and information about symbolic links </li><li> sync - writes memory buffers to physical devices </li><li> systat - query host for system information </li><li> tac - print file in reverse </li><li> tail - displays the last part of a file </li><li> talk - visual communication program that copies lines from one terminal to that of another user </li><li> tar - file compression and archiving utility. I find the syntax of this command to be frustratingly opaque. The following works for me. To use this command to unzip gzipped tarballs in verbose mode, use <ul><li> tar -xvzf filename.tgz </li></ul>To create a tarball from files in a given directory and its subdirectories, use<br /><ul><li> tar -cvzf filename.tgz sourcename </li></ul>Sourcename can be the name of a single file, a wildcard such as *, or the name of a subdirectory. There seem to be two different conventions concerning gzipped tarballs. One often encounters .tar.gz. The other popular choice is .tgz. Slackware packages use the latter convention. The command can also be used to archive a file, a group of files, or a directory (with its subdirectories) on tape or onto floppies. If the material to be archived exceeds the capacity of the backup medium, the program will prompt the user to insert a new tape or diskette. Use the following command to back up to floppies:<br /><ul><li> tar -cvf /dev/fd0 filename(s) or directoryname(s) </li></ul>The backup can be restored with<br /><ul><li> tar -xvf /dev/fd0 </li></ul>Tar can be used for other things. To mirror all the files and subdirectories in from-stuff to to-stuff, use the commands<br /><ul><li> cd from-stuff </li><li> tar cf - . | (cd ../to-stuff; tar xvf -) </li></ul>No tar file is ever written to disk. The data is sent by pipe from one tar process to another. This example is taken from <em>Running Linux</em>, p.177. To list the table of contents of a tar archive, use<br /><ul><li> tar tvf tarfile </li></ul>To extract individual files from a tar archive, use<br /><ul><li> tar xvf tarfile files </li></ul>where files is the list of files to extract. When extracting files, tar creates missing subdirectories underneath the current directory in which the cammand is invoked.<br /></li><li> tcl - scripting language </li><li> tcsh - extended version of the C shell </li><li> tee - copy standard input to standard output and one or more files </li><li> telinit - used to change run level. Exact run level that corresponds to single-user, multi-user, and X levels depends on distribution. </li><li> telnet - remote login over network </li><li> test - evaluates an expression or compares arguments. This is a shell builtin in bash, tcsh and zsh. </li><li> tftp - user interface to TFTP protocol </li><li> time - displays times for the current shell and its children. This is a shell builtin. Strange, because there is also a /usr/bin/time program on my Red Hat system. </li><li> tin - Netnews reader </li><li> tkdesk - graphical desktop file manager for X </li><li> tksysv - graphical runlevel editor under Red Hat. Allows root to configure the services that are started at each run level. </li><li> tload - display system load average in graph format </li><li> top - dynamically displays process status </li><li> touch - update access and modification times of a file. If the file does not exist on disk, an empty file is created. </li><li> tr - translation utility that can be used, for example, to replace specified characters in a text file </li><li> trap - traps a signal. This is a shell builtin. </li><li> true - null command that returns a successful exit status </li><li> tset - initializes terminal </li><li> tty - shows special file that represents your terminal. Displays the terminal pathname. </li><li> type - displays how each argument would be interpreted as a command. This is a shell builtin. </li><li> typeset - declares attributes for a variaable (same as declare). This is a shell builtin. </li><li> ul - translate underscores to underlining </li><li> umask - establishes the file-creation permissions mask. Usage is <ul><li> umask xyz </li></ul>The system subtracts x, y and z from the owner, group and other file permissions that it would otherwise assign to new files. This is a shell builtin.<br /></li><li> umount [device] - finish writing to the device and remove it from the active filesystem. The command umount -a will (re)mount all file systems listed in /etc/fstab. </li><li> unalias - remove name previously defined by alias. This is a shell builtin. </li><li> uname - displays information about the system. With no arguments, it displays the name of the operating system. With the -a option, it displays information about the operating system, the host name, and hardware. </li><li> uniq - displays lines of a file that are unique </li><li> unset - removes a variable or function. This is a shell builtin. </li><li> unzip - uncompress files compressed with the zip utility, compatible with DOS PKzip </li><li> updatedb - update file database used by locate command </li><li> uptime - shows the time, how long the system has been up, the number of users, and average load. </li><li> useradd - same as adduser </li><li> userdel - remove an account (as root). The user's home directory and undelivered mail must be dealt with separately. </li><li> users - prints list of users on the system </li><li> vdir - variant of the GNU version of the ls command. Defaults to printing out the long version of directory entries. </li><li> vi - standard screen oriented Unix editor </li><li> view - vi in read-only mode </li><li> vim - improved vi editor </li><li> vrfy - query remote host to verify the accuracy of an email address </li><li> w - display info about userids and active processes </li><li> wait - waits for a background process to terminate. This is a shell builtin. </li><li> wc - displays number of lines, characters and words in a file </li><li> Wharf - the AfterStep application dock module </li><li> whatis - display one-line summary of specified command </li><li> whereis - use to find utilities in standard locations </li><li> which - used to find utilities in search path. Will return the absolute directory path of the named utility program. </li><li> who - display information about currently logged in userids </li><li> whoami - display information about userid that is currently logged in </li><li> wish - front end to tk, an X window extension of tcl </li><li> workbone - console based cd player </li><li> workman - graphical cd player program </li><li> write - send messages to another local user </li><li> X - starts up the X server. Can be invoked with <ul><li> X -quiet -query remotemachineaddress </li></ul>in order to get a graphical login screen on the remote machine. See the discussion in connection with xdm below.<br /></li><li> xadm - display advanced power management BIOS information </li><li> xargs - converts standard output of one command into arguments for another. This is one of those powerful but obscure commands. Xargs reads arguments from the standard input, delimited by blanks (which can be protected with double or single quotes or a backslash) or newlines, and executes the command (default is /bin/echo) one or more times with any initial-arguments followed by arguments read from standard input. Blank lines on the standard input are ignored. </li><li> xbiff - graphical mail delivery notification utility </li><li> xcalc - simple calculator program </li><li> xclipboard - name says it all </li><li> Xconfigurator - Red Hat utility for configuring settings for X </li><li> xdm - used to start an X login session. This can be used to start a login session on a remote system. See the discussion on the following site: <ul><li> <a href="http://www.menet.umn.edu/%7Ekaszeta/unix/xterminal/index.html" mce_href="http://www.menet.umn.edu/%7Ekaszeta/unix/xterminal/index.html" target=""><tt>http://www.menet.umn.edu/~kaszeta/unix/xterminal/index.html</tt></a> </li></ul>See the man pages for X, xdm, and Xserver. As usual, the man pages are pretty obscure. The best single source seems to be the Xserver man pages. After X is configured, X needs to be started at bootup with the command (in /etc/rc.d/init.d/xterm):<br /><ul><li> X -quiet -query remotemachineaddress </li></ul>If the address of a nameserver is not configured, then the numeric address of the remote machine rather than its name should be entered. If the machines are connected through ethernet cards and the net, then obviously basic networking has to be set up. Gnome and KDE come with their own versions of X display/login managers, called respectively gdm and kdm.<br /></li><li> xdvi - view a dvi file compiled under L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X </li><li> xedit - a simple text editor for X </li><li> xf86config - graphical configuration tool for X </li><li> XF86Setup - graphical configuration tool for X </li><li> xfd - display an available font in X. Creates a grid in an x-term with one character per rectangle. </li><li> xfig - utility for interactive generation of figures </li><li> xfm - graphical file manager for X </li><li> xhost - tell X server that remote computer has access to your machine and that you will use the remote computer. This can be used to set up remote X sessions. To set up a remote X session on the UQAM Nobel machine, run the following command on the local machine (one doesn't have to be root to do this) <ul><li> xhost +nobel.si.uqam.ca </li></ul>Then, log onto the remote machine using rlogin (see above) or telnet. Once logged in, use the following command to get the remote X server to open an X terminal on the local machine:<br /><ul><li> setenv DISPLAY localhostname:0 ; xterm &amp; </li></ul>This is valid for csh, which is the default login shell on Nobel. For ksh, (and I think bash) replace with<br /><ul><li> DISPLAY=localhostname:0 </li><li> export DISPLAY ; xterm </li></ul>Other X-based programs such as Netscape or Gauss (graphical version) can also be run on a remote machine with display on the local machine with little trouble. The local X server is the program that has all of the information concerning the properties of the graphics card and terminal, so it must be necessary to have X running on the local machine. The following should also work. After using xhost to give permission to the remote machine to display on the local machine, use<br /><ul><li> netscape -display localhostname:0.0 </li></ul>Question: can one start the X session on the local machine and then run a remote copy of a window manager?<br /></li><li> xinit - start X Window. The command startx is a front end to xinit in Linux, including Slackware. </li><li> xload - displays a graphic of the system load </li><li> xlpq - graphical interface to print manager. This is included on one of the XFCE menus, but does not seem to be a part of the base Red Hat distribution. </li><li> xlsfonts - list fonts available under the X Window system. </li><li> xman - browsable command reference. Displays manual pages under X. </li><li> xmh - graphical front end under X to the nmh mail handling system. This program is part of the XFree86 package in Red Hat. </li><li> xmodmap - utility for modifying keymaps and pointer button mappings in X. Can be used to install a French Canadian keyboard. Download the Xmodmap.cf file from www.linux-quebec.org, and insert the command <ul><li> xmodmap /etc/X11/Xmodmap.cf &amp; </li></ul>into the .xession (with xdm) or the .xinitrc (with startx) file.<br /></li><li> xosview - displays bar graphs of system load, load average, memory usage, and swap usage </li><li> xpaint - simple paint program for X </li><li> xpdf - GPL'd utility for previewing dvi files. Doesn't seem to work too well on texts with a lot of math. </li><li> xplaycd - X Window audio cd player utility </li><li> xsetroot - utility to configure root window of an X terminal </li><li> xsysinfo - graphical display of load and memory usage </li><li> xterm - start an X Window terminal session </li><li> xterm-color - color version of xterm </li><li> xv - utility for viewing and manipulating many types of image files. This is a shareware program. </li><li> xvidtune - utility for fine tuning of monitor settings under X </li><li> yacc - parser generator </li><li> ytalk - multi-user program similar to talk </li><li> zcat - read one or more files that have been compressed with gzip or compress and write to standard output </li><li> zcmp - read compressed files and pass them to cmp </li><li> zdiff - read compressed files and pass them to diff </li><li> zgrep - read compressed files and pass them to grep </li><li> Zharf - AfterStep button panel module </li><li> zip - zip utility compatible with DOS PKzip </li><li> zless - view zipped files </li><li> zmore - print contents of compressed files one screen at a time </li><li> znew - uncompress Z files and recompress in .gz format </li></ul>Eventually, we want to be able to distinguish between commands that are an intrinsic part of the kernel, commands that are executable binaries that come with every distribution of Linux, executable binaries that are not provided with all distributiions of Linux, and executable shell scripts. We also want to point out the typical location of these commands on different Linux distributions. Finally, we want to distinguish between shell commands and Linux commands.<br /><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc10" target=""> 10</a> Notes on Applications</h2><br /><h3><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc10.1" target=""> 10.1</a> Mail Transfer Agents (MTAs)</h3>The Linux distributions I know come with sendmail, except for Mandrake, which as of version 7.1 uses Postfix as its default MTA. There are several competing programs available. Even the simplest don't seem to be that easy to configure.<br /><br /><ul><li> Exim - </li><li> Fetchmail - seemingly one of the few ways (Pine is able to do this as well) to download mail automatically from a POP or IMAP server and pass it to local mail handling agents. Use the following line in /.fetchmailrc: <ul><li> poll pop.uqam.ca proto pop3 user USERNAME pass PASSWORD </li></ul>Use the following to have fetchmail loaded as a daemon that will download mail at regular intervals:<br /><ul><li> fetchmail -d 6000 </li></ul>The interval is specified in seconds. Fetchmail will poll all of the pop servers listed in /.fetchmailrc.<br /></li><li> Getmail - Designed as a replacement for Fetchmail. </li><li> MMDF - </li><li> Postfix - a mail transport agent and potential replacement for sendmail. Mandrake 7.1 and up uses this as its default MTA. </li><li> Qmail - a ``modern'' replacement for sendmail. It is reputed to be more secure than sendmail. Since it doesn't have a GPL license, it is not the default MTA of any Linux distributions that I know of. </li><li> Sendmail - this one gets my vote for the most complicated and obscure configuration file, /etc/sendmail.cf. Most individual Linux users will be using machines connected to the Internet via an ISP or on networks (such as university networks) with centralized mail processing and access to the net. I have to change the following lines in sendmail.cf to be able to send mail with emacs. <ul><li> DMuqam.ca <tt>#</tt> masquerade the domain name </li><li> DNambler.steven <tt>#</tt> masquerade username </li><li> DSnobel.si.uqam.ca <tt>#</tt> relay all mail through nobel server </li></ul>The problem comes from the fact that, as a user on a local network, I don't have my own domain name. I want return mail to be routed to UQAM's mail server and I want the server to handle all my mail for me, even mail to other UQAM users. If I send mail to UQAM users using their normalized usernames, the net does not know who or where they are. I have managed to get a configuration that works by writing a sendmail.mc file and processing it with the m4 macro interpreter, following the Address-Rewriting mini-HOWTO. I now have something that works, but which mysteriously complains about ``dangerous write permissions'' every time the system boots up.<br /></li><li> Smail - seems to be a popular choice on smaller systems. It would appear that at one point in its history, Red Hat shipped with smail, but this has been replaced with sendmail. </li><li> Zmailer - apparently designed for mail servers with a large number of users. </li></ul><h3><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc10.2" target=""> 10.2</a> Mail User Agents (MUAs)</h3><br /><ul><li> Acmemail - Web-based mail agent. Allows you to access your mail with any browser. Involves setting up a Perl CGI script on the server side. </li><li> Archimedes - A successor program to XFmail (see below) </li><li> Arrow - </li><li> Balsa - the default Gnome mail program </li><li> Blitzmail - </li><li> Elm - </li><li> Emumail - Web-based mail agent. Allows you to use any browser to check your POP mail account. The Web site of the company that makes this one can be used to check your mail on a Unix system without setting up any CGI script on the server side. </li><li> Evolution - mail reader and contact manager/calendar designed for use under Gnome </li><li> Exmh - graphical front end for Mh </li><li> Kmail - mail reading program included with KDE </li><li> M - for ``Mahogany''. Seems similar to XFmail (see below). I haven't been able to figure out from the description whether it runs independently of or in conjunction with sendmail and procmail. </li><li> Mh - </li><li> Mumail - </li><li> Mutt - text based mail program, which is highly configurable. </li><li> Nmh - mail handling system. This system includes a <em>large</em> number of binary commands that are kept in /usr/bin. See the man page for nmh for details. Red Hat 5.1 and 5.2 come with exmh and xmh, which are graphical front ends for nmh. The exmh front end is a separate package, while xmh is owned by XFree86. </li><li> Pine - text based mail and news utility. Features now include: <ul><li> MIME support </li><li> ability to read and post network news </li><li> maintenance of an address book of mail recipients </li><li> spell checking during message composition </li><li> mouse support when using xterm on an X Window system </li><li> a highly configurable environment </li></ul>Pine can be used to download mail from one or more POP3 mail servers. See Tip of the Week (<a href="http://tipoftheweek.darkelf.net/" mce_href="http://tipoftheweek.darkelf.net/" target=""><tt>http://tipoftheweek.darkelf.net</tt></a>) for the fourth week of February 1999. First, set up multiple configuration files (pine -p localmail, pine -p popserver 1, pine -p popserver 2, etc.). Then, to configure Pine to use a POP3 server, use the Setup Config command. Set something like this in the inbox-path:<br /><ul><li> {pop.server.com/pop3/user=myid}INBOX </li></ul>When Pine is restarted, it should ask for your password, connect to the remote server, and use it is if it were accessing local mail. The article is unclear on whether there is the option of leaving copies of the downloaded mail on the server.<br /></li><li> Sylpheed - </li><li> XCmail - </li><li> XFmail - This one seems very promising. It's a GUI-based mail tool that seems to offer most of the features of Netscape's mail module. It runs without using sendmail and procmail, which is a major advantage. </li></ul><h3><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc10.3" target=""> 10.3</a> Editors</h3><br /><ul><li> cooledit - a pretty powerful GUI text editor </li><li> emacs - powerful text editor that includes modules for reading and sending mail and postings to newsgroups, and a browser module. For editing T<sub>E</sub>X and L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X files, the AucT<sub>E</sub>X addon package is invaluable, and makes emacs pretty hard to beat as an editor with L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X. </li><li> jed - has pretty good emacs emulation (it can even read mail like emacs!). It does simple syntax highlighting for TeX files, including giving positioning of parentheses. It would seem to be pretty configurable and takes up much less disk space than emacs, although more than joe and muemacs. It works well in console mode, and still manages to use colors for menu bars and syntax highlighting. The program xjed which comes with some versions starts up its own X terminal when invoked. </li><li> joe - "Joe's Own Editor", a fairly powerful editor with a compact binary and an ability to emulate Wordstar, Emacs, Pico, and a few other editors. </li><li> jove - "Joe's Own Version of Emacs". I tried this out a couple of times and managed to crash it when making some minor errors in command syntax. </li><li> microemacs (JASSPA) - spinoff of muemacs. Pretty powerful and configurable, while not taking up too much disk space or memory. </li><li> muemacs - a fairly powerful emacs clone whose binary is actually smaller than that of the Joe editor. </li><li> nedit - an X Window based text editor. Of all text editors for Linux that I've seen, it has commands which are closest to Windows text editors, for cursor movement, highlighting, marking text, etc. It has very good syntax highlighting for both L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X and HTML. </li><li> pico - simple text editor. It often comes packaged with the Pine mail user agent. </li><li> vi - included with most Linux distributions. If you're not used to the syntax, it can be pretty hard to understand. </li><li> vim - improved version of vi </li><li> xedit - simple text editor included with many Linux distributions </li></ul><h3><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc10.4" target=""> 10.4</a> Other</h3><br /><ul><li> dfm - Desktop File Manager. Allows the user to place program icons on the desktop. </li><li> gmc - Gnome Midnight Commander. Gnome version of Midnight Commander. Includes a graphical interface and allows the user to place icons on the desktop. </li><li> mc - Midnight Commander file manager. Runs in console mode and in an xterm. </li><li> scilab - a free matrix programming language. May be a good substitute for GAUSS and/or MATLAB. </li></ul><h2><a href="http://pseudomale.blogspot.com/2010/08/linux-redhat.html" name="tth_sEc11" target=""> 11</a> Some Nifty Slogans</h2>Linux: the choice of a GNU generation.<br />Windows: where do you want to go today?
