Basic Linux commands
This is a small video demonstrating a few basic Linux commands. I'm literally just scratching the surface with this video. For more information on any of these commands, a simple search on the internet will produce a tone of results. In this video I run the basic version of these commands. There are a lot way to use these commands. Ubuntu also has a guide for beginners.

1 00:00:18 The first command being run is the ls command
type ls and press enter
2 00:00:20 Notice the titles that appear .
These are folders files or called directories
3 00:00:25 Files might show up as well
depending on the directory contents
4 00:00:37 Next command is cd or change directory
TIP- watch for upper case letters
5 00:00:45 We change to the Documents folder
type cd Documents and press enter
6 00:00:57 Now run the ls command to see the
contents of this folder / directory
7 00:01:01 The Documents folder has one folder inside
labeled Students
8 00:01:13 Now type cd Students to move to the Students
folder
9 00:01:20 Type ls and press enter
now you can see the contents of this folder
10 00:01:29 In the student folder there is a file called test.txt
Run the cat command to view it's contents
11 00:01:31 type cat test.txt and press enter
you should now see what's inside test.txt
12 00:01:42 in this example the txt document contains a
sentence tell what the cat command does
13 00:01:50 Just to compare, we'll open the the same document
using mousepad text editor
14 00:02:00 You can see the same contents when we open it
with the text editor
15 00:02:07 Next we'll run the ip a command and ifconfig
both of these have information about the
network adapters
16 00:02:14 The difference is that ifconfig shows you more
information about the adapters and traffic
17 00:02:37 ifconfig -a is the next command for all network
adapters type ifconfig -a and press enter
18 00:02:50 Using the above information, you can run the ifconfig
for a single adapter for this one type ifconfig eth0
19 00:03:04 Finally we type clear and press enter to clear the screen
