Linux / Unix Resources

This is a collection of various tips and things I use in linux. This is actually up on the web more as a refrence to myself than anything else. I keep learning this stuff, but since I dont use it all that frequently I tend to forget how to do something exactly the next time i need to. So here are little commands I use and some tiny descriptions. If you have some tips tricks or think i am doing something the hard way please feel free to comment and share. If you have any Linux / Unix questions please feel free to post them if you think it is something I might be able to help you with. That said here is what I got… Commands:// secure copy.
