Chris Sanders Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 Well i am one of the best when it comes to windows servers but the company i am with is planning on eventually making the move to linux servers so i am trying to learn a lot more about the OS since i have never used it. I am currently running redhat since it will be what is running on the servers. I need to know some commonly used network info and commands if anybody would like to help. One of the main ones i need to know is the linux equivalent of ipconfig. Anything else helpful would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwolfe Veteran Posted March 21, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 21, 2004 /sbin/ifconfig is what you are looking for ;) You can go to the shell/console/command prompt and type apropos network and see the subject of every man page that references the word 'network' :yes: netstat, tcpdump, ping (of course) traceroute, ethtereal, and nmap (if installed) are all pretty good. I don't use a lot of them, but those listed, I have used at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
