For unknown reason the virtual console file wasn't replaced, and I didn't notice! It definitely is time for bed now... Now it *is* up, I just checked. Sorry for the delay!

Roberts newest stuff is up. He added really nice tables of content in each section. I *think* I found the problem. I had to upload the changed files manually, and I forgot the TOC - because I just clicked through all the pages, using next. Anyway, one comment about the new stuff: http://www.linux-migration.org/ch02s09.html ps -ef is the System V way of ps, like it's used by Red Hat Linux. Some Linux Distributions like S.u.S.E. use the BSD style ps, which would use ps auxw. Maybe this should be noted. Maybe tell them about man commandname very early in the Essentials section?

Maybe this should be noted. ps ax is more common for Linux, really. ps -ef is more Solaris. --=20 "Khaaaaamaaayyyy, Haaaaamaaaayyyy, HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!" -- Goku, Dragon Ball |

Well, here comes the funny part: While Linux is mostly System V style, some tools behave more like BSD because they could be taken from FreeBSD when Linux started. And Solaris clearly is BSD style, but the ps acts like System V - a remnant of Interactive Unix which was bought by Sun in 1991 because they had lots of problems (and no decent filesystem) with their SunOS. BTW I happen to run one of the last Interactive servers around, built in 1993 I think. Oh, and Interactive Unix was for a very short period of time owned by Microsoft. Now you know why there is a C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts, networks and lmhosts file...

Thank you very much! The index is a bit thin. The actual pages for the info after the virtual console are there, just not in the TOC. -- "Khaaaaamaaayyyy, Haaaaamaaaayyyy, HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!" -- Goku, Dragon Ball |
