學得愈多，就愈覺得自己肚子裡的東西實在太少，學得愈久，就愈覺得電腦(網路)世界之浩翰…
這篇雖然是 Mint 官方的教學文件，不過，仍然適用 Debain 系列的 OS (B2D, OB2D, Ubuntu, Debian...)

System:
Running kernel and system information:
# uname -a # Get the kernel version (and BSD version)
# lsb_release -a # Full release info of any LSB distribution
# cat /etc/debian_version # Get Debian version
Use /etc/DISTR-release with DISTR= lsb (Ubuntu) /etc/issue.

Users:
# id # Show the active user id with login and group
# last # Show last logins on the system
# who # Show who is logged on the system
# groupadd admin # Add group "admin" and user colin
# useradd -c "Colin Barschel" -g admin -m colin
# usermod -a -G # Add existing user to group (Debian)
# userdel colin # Delete user colin
# pw groupmod admin -m newmembe r # Add a new member to a group
# pw useradd colin -c "Colin Barschel" -g admin -m -s /bin/tcsh
# pw userdel colin; pw groupdel admin
Kernel modules:
# lsmod # List all modules loaded in the kernel
# modprobe isdn # To load a module (here isdn)
Compile Kernel
# cd /usr/src/linux
# make mrproper # Clean everything, including config files
# make oldconfig # Reuse the old .config if existent
# make menuconfig # or xconfig (Qt) or gconfig (GTK)
# make # Create a compressed kernel image
# make modules # Compile the modules
# make modules_install # Install the modules
# make install # Install the kernel
# reboot
Repair grub:
So you broke grub? Boot from a live cd, [find your linux partition under /dev and use fdisk to find the linux partion] mount the linux partition, add /proc and /dev and use grub-install /dev/xyz. Suppose linux lies on /dev/sda4:
# mount /dev/sda6 /mnt # mount the linux partition on /mnt
# mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc # mount the proc subsystem into /mnt
# mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev # mount the devices into /mnt
# chroot /mnt # change root to the linux partition
# grub-install /dev/sda # reinstall grub with your old settings
Listing and PIDs:
Each process has a unique number, the PID. A list of all running process is retrieved with ps.
# ps -auxefw # Extensive list of all running process
However more typical usage is with a pipe or with pgrep:
# ps axww | grep cron
586 ?? Is 0:01.48 /usr/sbin/cron -s
# ps axjf # All processes in a tree format
# ps aux | grep 'ss[h]' # Find all ssh pids without the grep pid
# pgrep -l sshd # Find the PIDs of processes by (part of) name
# echo $$ # The PID of your shell
# fuser -va 22/tcp # List processes using port 22 (Linux)
# pmap PID # Memory map of process (hunt memory leaks) (Linux)
# fuser -va /home # List processes accessing the /home partition
# strace df # Trace system calls and signals
# truss df # same as above
Signals/Kill:
Terminate or send a signal with kill or killall.
# kill -s TERM 4712 # same as kill -15 4712
# killall -1 httpd # Kill HUP processes by exact name
# pkill -9 http # Kill TERM processes by (part of) name
# pkill -TERM -u www # Kill TERM processes owned by www
# fuser -k -TERM -m /home # Kill every process accessing /home (to umount)
Important signals are:
1 HUP (hang up)
2 INT (interrupt)
3 QUIT (quit)
9 KILL (non-catchable, non-ignorable kill)
15 TERM (software termination signal)
Permissions:
Change permission and ownership with chmod and chown. The default umask can be changed for all users in /etc/profile for Linux. The default umask is usually 022. The umask is subtracted from 777, thus umask 022 results in a permission 0f 755.
1 --x execute # Mode 764 = exec/read/write | read/write | read
2 -w- write # For: |-- Owner --| |- Group-| |Oth|
4 r-- read
ugo=a u=user, g=group, o=others, a=everyone
# chmod [OPTION] MODE[,MODE] FILE # MODE is of the form [ugoa]*([-+=]([rwxXst]))
# chmod 640 /var/log/maillog # Restrict the log -rw-r-----
# chmod u=rw,g=r,o= /var/log/maillog # Same as above
# chmod -R o-r /home/* # Recursive remove other readable for all users
# chmod u+s /path/to/prog # Set SUID bit on executable (know what you do!)
# find / -perm -u+s -print # Find all programs with the SUID bit
# chown user:group /path/to/file # Change the user and group ownership of a file
# chgrp group /path/to/file # Change the group ownership of a file
# chmod 640 `find ./ -type f -print` # Change permissions to 640 for all files
# chmod 751 `find ./ -type d -print` # Change permissions to 751 for all directories
Disk information:
# hdparm -I /dev/sda # information about the IDE/ATA disk (Linux)
# fdisk /dev/ad2 # Display and manipulate the partition table
# smartctl -a /dev/ad2 # Display the disk SMART info
System mount points/Disk usage
# mount | column -t # Show mounted file-systems on the system
# df # display free disk space and mounted devices
# cat /proc/partitions # Show all registered partitions
# du -sh * # Directory sizes as listing
# du -csh # Total directory size of the current directory
# du -ks * | sort -n -r # Sort everything by size in kilobytes
Who has which files opened:
This is useful to find out which file is blocking a partition which has to be unmounted and gives a typical error of:
# umount /home/
umount: unmount of /home # umount impossible because a file is locking home
failed: Device busy
# ls -lSr # Show files, biggest last
Find opened files on a mount point with fuser or lsof:
# fuser -m /home # List processes accessing /home
# lsof /home
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
tcsh 29029 eedcoba cwd DIR 0,18 12288 1048587 /home/cipi (cipi:/home)

Mount/remount a file system
For example the cdrom. If listed in /etc/fstab:
# mount /cdrom
# mount -t auto /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom # typical cdrom mount command
# mount /dev/hdc -t iso9660 -r /cdrom # typical IDE
# mount /dev/scd0 -t iso9660 -r /cdrom # typical SCSI cdrom
# mount /dev/sdc0 -t ntfs-3g /windows # typical SCSI
Entry in /etc/fstab:
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom subfs noauto,fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec 0 0
Add swap on-the-fly
Suppose you need more swap (right now), say a 2GB file /swap2gb .
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/swap2gb bs=1024k count=2000
# mkswap /swap2gb # create the swap area
# swapon /swap2gb # activate the swap. It now in use
# swapoff /swap2gb # when done deactivate the swap
# rm /swap2gb
Mount an SMB share
Suppose we want to access the SMB share myshare on the computer smbserver, the address as typed on a Windows PC is \\smbserver\myshare\. We mount on /mnt/smbshare. Warning> cifs wants an IP or DNS name, not a Windows name.
# smbclient -U user -I 192.168.16.229 -L //smbshare/ # List the shares
# mount -t smbfs -o username=winuser //smbserver/myshare /mnt/smbshare
# mount -t cifs -o username=winuser,password=winpwd //192.168.16.229/myshare /mnt/share
Additionally with the package mount.cifs it is possible to store the credentials in a file, for example /home/user/.smb:
username=winuser
password=winpwd
And mount as follow:
# mount -t cifs -o credentials=/home/user/.smb //192.168.16.229/myshare /mnt/smbshare
Mount an image:
# mount -t iso9660 -o loop file.iso /mnt # Mount a CD image
# mount -t ext3 -o loop file.img /mnt # Mount an image with ext3 fs
Create a memory file system:
A memory based file system is very fast for heavy IO application. How to create a 64 MB partition mounted on /memdisk:
# mount -t tmpfs -osize=64m tmpfs /memdisk
Disk performance:
Read and write a 1 GB file on partition ad4s3c (/home)
# time dd if=/dev/ad4s3c of=/dev/null bs=1024k count=1000
# time dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k count=1000 of=/home/1Gb.file
# hdparm -tT /dev/hda # Linux only
Networking:
# ethtool eth0 # Show the ethernet status (replaces mii-diag)
# ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full # Force 100Mbit Full duplex
# ethtool -s eth0 autoneg off # Disable auto negotiation
# ethtool -p eth1 # Blink the ethernet led - very useful when supported
# ip link show # Display all interfaces on Linux (similar to ifconfig)
# ip link set eth0 up # Bring device up (or down). Same as "ifconfig eth0 up"
# ip addr show # Display all IP addresses on Linux (similar to ifconfig)
# ip neigh show # Similar to arp -a
Ports in use:
Listening open ports:
# netstat -an | grep LISTEN
# lsof -i # List all Internet connections
# socklist # Display list of open sockets
# netstat -anp --udp --tcp | grep LISTEN
# netstat -tup # List active connections to/from system
# netstat -tupl # List listening ports from system
Firewall
Check if a firewall is running (typical configuration only):
# iptables -L -n -v # For status Open the iptables firewall
# iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT # Open everything
# iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
# iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -Z # Zero the packet and byte counters in all chains
# iptables -F # Flush all chains
# iptables -X # Delete all chains
IP Forward for routing
Check and then enable IP forward with :
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward # Check IP forward 0=off, 1=on
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
or edit /etc/sysctl.conf with:
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
Network Address Translation
# iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE # to activate NAT
# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 78.31.70.238 --dport 20022 -j DNAT \
--to 192.168.16.44:22 # Port forward 20022 to internal IP port ssh
# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 78.31.70.238 --dport 993:995 -j DNAT \
--to 192.168.16.254:993-995 # Port forward of range 993-995
# ip route flush cache
# iptables -L -t nat # Check NAT status
DNS
The DNS entries are valid for all interfaces and are stored in /etc/resolv.conf. The domain to which the host belongs is also stored in this file. A minimal configuration is:
nameserver 66.63.128.84
search cipi.net intern.lab
domain cipi.org
Check the system domain name with:
# hostname -d # Same as dnsdomainname
DHCP
# dhcpcd -n eth0 # Trigger a renew (does not always work)
# dhcpcd -k eth0 # release and shutdown
The lease with the full information is stored in:
/var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info
tar
The command tar (tape archive) creates and extracts archives of file and directories. The archive .tar is uncompressed, a compressed archive has the extension .tgz or .tar.gz (zip) or .tbz (bzip2). Do not use absolute path when creating an archive, you probably want to unpack it somewhere else. Some typical commands are:
Create
# cd /
# tar -cf home.tar home/ # archive the whole /home directory (c for create)
# tar -czf home.tgz home/ # same with zip compression
# tar -cjf home.tbz home/ # same with bzip2 compression
Only include one (or two) directories from a tree, but keep the relative structure. For example archive /usr/local/etc and /usr/local/www and the first directory in the archive should be local/.
# tar -C /usr -czf local.tgz local/etc local/www
# tar -C /usr -xzf local.tgz # To untar the local dir into /usr
# cd /usr; tar -xzf local.tgz # Is the same as above
Extract
# tar -tzf home.tgz # look inside the archive without extracting (list)
# tar -xf home.tar # extract the archive here (x for extract)
# tar -xzf home.tgz # same with zip compression (-xjf for bzip2 compression)
# remove leading path gallery2 and extract into gallery
# tar --strip-components 1 -zxvf gallery2.tgz -C gallery/
# tar -xjf home.tbz home/colin/file.txt # Restore a single file
More advanced
# tar c dir/ | gzip | ssh user@remote 'dd of=dir.tgz' # arch dir/ and store remotely.
# tar cvf - `find . -print` > backup.tar # arch the current directory.
# tar -cf - -C /etc . | tar xpf - -C /backup/etc # Copy directories
# tar -cf - -C /etc . | ssh user@remote tar xpf - -C /backup/etc # Remote copy.
# tar -czf home.tgz --exclude '*.o' --exclude 'tmp/' home/
Find
Some important options:
-x (on BSD) -xdev (on Linux) Stay on the same file system (dev in fstab).
-exec cmd {} \; Execute the command and replace {} with the full path
-iname Like -name but is case insensitive
-ls Display information about the file (like ls -la)
-size n n is +-n (k M G T P)
-cmin n File's status was last changed n minutes ago.
# find . -type f ! -perm -444 # Find files not readable by all
# find . -type d ! -perm -111 # Find dirs not accessible by all
# find /home/user/ -cmin 10 -print # Files created or modified in the last 10 min.

# find /var/ -size +10M -ls # This is simpler
# find . -size +10M -size -50M -print
# find /usr/ports/ -name work -type d -print -exec rm -rf {} \; # Clean the ports
