So let's do a brief review.
We've seen some helpful Linux terminal commands and helpful Windows command line commands that will
allow us to do some pretty impressive things from the command line.
We started with the basics, like listing the directory contents and changing directories.
Remember, we can change directories up with dot dot.
We can change to the root of the file system with a slash, we can change to our user directory, just
CD and then enter.
We could see some information like the hostname and then the operating system information.
We've seen how to do our history.
We can also use that up arrow.
And remember, we can always use the tab key to autocomplete, the name of a directory or a file.
We used Echo to print something to the screen.
We also saw how to use Echo with a greater than symbol or the right angle there to redirect output to
a file.
We saw how to use Nano, the text editor in our Linux environment, and then we did a control o to write
the output and control X to exit.
We saw how to use the pseudo or super user do command.
We saw how to more the contents of a file we could make and remove directories with make dear and dear,
we can copy, move and remove, copy, copy, move and are in the and remove R.M..
We saw how we could even find and locate files, find by name or locate and we saw we do that update
DB Command so that we updated that indexed database of all the files on the system.
We saw how to use a couple of advanced commands like ping and interface, config if config for our networking
can check to see if we get a connection out to the Internet.
And the same thing with our interface config, we can see what our IP address is.
By default, we get a ten to 15 on our nat'l just because of the default setup and virtual box, but
we'll see how to make that a more useful and more secure network in the next section.
We saw how we can do the man command or the manual command or use a dash dash help after any command
in Linux.
To get more information about all of the options for that command, we could print our working directory
with TWD and we could show all our environment variables with the EMV or the Environment Command in
Windows.
Most of those had an exact equivalent or something really close.
Remember, the Diaa command gave us the directory so L's and Linux, Dyax and Windows, KDDI worked
very similarly.
We could change directories and we can change up by doing KDDI space dot dot.
We can change to the route with CD space slash and then CD showed our current working directory.
Remember, we have to use one of those environment variables.
If we want to change into our home directory, we can use user profile or home path surrounded by parentheses
percent symbols with the CD command, V.R. gave us our OS info and hostname told us our hostname.
If you want that dos ke slash h dasuki space slash h.
It's an old command to give us our history.
We can also use the up arrow to go back and forth, up and down.
Among our history of commands and the command line.
We saw how to echo something to the screen, same as in Linux Echo with the right angle bracket to echo
to redirect it out to a file.
We can even run notepad from the command line and windows and notepads face in the name of a file.
Let us create a new text document.
We can more just like we can back in Linux to show the contents of the file.
We can make directories and remove directories.
With McDeere in room, dear, we can also use a shortened version and Windows MBD and then we can copy,
move and delete files.
Those we have to spell out, copy, spell out, move and then DTL for delete a file instead of CPM.
The NRM, both the ping and IP config commands work exactly like they did in Linux, except we use IP
config instead of RF config in Windows, then Khedive will help us print the current directory.
We can use the HELP command instead of the manual command help and then the name of the command that
we want to get help on.
Or we give that command name space slash questionmark and that gives us the contents of that command.
And then finally, if we want to see all the environment variables on our machine set, we'll do it
for us and a Windows environment.
So we've seen both the Linux and the Windows commands to do some pretty helpful things from the command
prompt in the next lesson.
In the next section, we're going to see how to set up our virtual environment lab networks so that
we can do something safely inside a host only network.
And then some things where we need to connect to the outside world on the World Wide Web.
So I'll see you in the next section.
