My first try getting my hands dirty with Linux was way back during college days. I tried installing different Linux Distros including Red Hat Linux 9, Ubuntu 6 and its Pinoy Version Bayanihan Linux. This was just to manifest the difference of it with Windows OSes installation process. But never been into the core of it. Not even with basic commands.

I posted a topic “Linux Basic Commands” at PHPUGPH. Some referred me to http://www.oreillynet.com/linux/cmd/. It’s cool and awesome but it seems it isn’t fit to what I need (only basics please!!!). I think it almost or completely listed all linux commands. It’s too broad for me to try and execute each of it.

I insist for the very basics and some replied:

ls -lia (dir/w in windows)
rm -rf (delete all no questions asked)
mkdir (make directory)
rmdir (delete folder / directory)
ps -ef (equivalent to ctrl + alt + del in windows to view all processes)
init 0 (shutdown)
init 6 (alam ko restart to eh..double check mo na lang)
vi <space> filename (editor in linux)
ssh root@192.168.1.165 (secure shell host parang run in windows \\192.168.1.165)
scp root@192.168.1.165:/home/wwwroot/htdocs /root/file_to_be_copied.php (copy from locahost to server)
man <space> <command> (help manual)
cp (copy)
grep (search)

Yes, finally!!! Thanks to blessing of PHPUGPH!

As I crave for more, I found this “The Ultimate Linux Reference Guide for Newbies” came upon to me clicking Stumble! toolbar. All the basic linux commands I and every developer must know was here.
