Unix Toolbox

Unix Rosetta Stone is also very useful: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;bhami.com&#x2F;rosetta.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;bhami.com&#x2F;rosetta.html</a>

It was on my bookmarks for a long time. I thought it would be nice to share with you guys.<p>There are so many times I do searches on HN to recall about some nice things I&#x27;ve seen oh the web... Quite often, the comments are the gems!

Bro Pages (instead of &quot;man&quot; pages) is a similar resource I find myself using surprisingly often <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;bropages.org&#x2F;browse" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;bropages.org&#x2F;browse</a>

An excellent page to keep handy or for browsing! Thanks for the link.<p>A different (but related) resource: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;explainshell.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;explainshell.com</a> - good for deciphering those tricker commands.

this is an incredibly useful shortlist of commands, most of these I&#x27;ve used before - some I&#x27;ve used and forgotten (mount -o remount,ro)

This is pretty great. Would be cool to get a filtered list based on the OS you were using.

hostname -i on cb.vu says the IP address is 78.31.70.238, but if you ping a host from the interface, the pings originate from 178.33.34.4 (according to tcpdump).

This is really incredible list. Very useful when in need. Especially the switches that come in very handy.

&gt; 2.2 Priority - ... Every command launched from this shell will have a lover priority. ...<p>You probably meant lower :)

What an awesome list. Props!

This is awesome, thanks!

I used to know a lot of this stuff. With Puppet, Chef, and then Ansible, I&#x27;ve found myself needing to know less and less of it.

What is with cb.vu? It takes you to the shell prompt...

Nice list! Bookmarked.

This is great. Could use more on the Mac OS X side, though.
