There are some lazy Linux teachers out there. They just show their students some commands they could read in a book or watch on KZread and call that "education". A good teacher should get them programming real stuff in C/C++ and how to shell script properly. I happened to have a really knowledgeable Linux professor that made sure we knew Unix and Linux inside and out by the end of that class, not just some commands.

@theacp127 that maybe fine for someone already familiar with the CLI but for a complete novice, you need at least 4 weeks of reading and trying things out to get familiar. Another 4 weeks of to heavy use to get comfortable and understand what commands you are running. The last 8 weeks would be for understanding the linuxOS and other stuff. This video is good for reviewing commands that you haven't used in a while.

Great video NetworkChuck. I'm a little farther along in my Linux journey that a beginner so this rapid-fire format is great for me. I can do my research on my own for the commands that are unfamiliar to me. Thanks man! Love this channel.
I love these videos... Not for the initial learning, but as a quick refresher when you're trying to memorize all these or don't use them everyday, it's perfect.
I've been procrastinating your channel for years man, mostly because of my own ego as an IT and Cybersecurity specialist but sometimes you need to step down a notch and start from scratch just to see those many many things you overlooked over the years cutting corners to win the rat race. I just decided to left the rat race and start my own business and BOOM now I have time to properly do all this thing again. Thank you, I really enjoy reviewing my entire career in IT with you Chuck! Not because I want to become a better productive employee, nah., because i want to know stuff better this time just for me!

I'm studying for Comptia A+, this video covered many basic command needed to use Linux. Thanks
Bro! Thank you so much! I’ve been looking for a quick refresher and this answered many questions and also brought back a lot of knowledge as I don’t use Linux often.
Excellent video. You present it in an easy-to-learn fashion. Thanks!
I would also add the command locate. I use it all the time as a quick way to find files etc on the system.
EXCELLENT Tutorial NetworkChuck. I knew a few but on the whole it was VERY educational. Keep up the good work!!!! I'm proud to subscriber!!!
Great video. Keep it up! Been following your channel for the past few years now. Love your vids.
I have been in this industry 20 years and I was sure I must know all of these. Never used cmp before. I usually just use an option on diff. Thanks for the new command.

I haven't use unix/linux for more than a decade. Watching this video made me feel nostalgic. I remember getting MKS Tools just to get started with Unix commands. Later, I got Coherent (Unix for PCs). When Linux became popular, they close.
we need a linux course from you bro your explanations and the way you hand the information are literally the best
Great review! I went along and tested each command for extra study power.

Wow.. So much information, I'm just getting started so this is amazing. Thank you
Love these kinds of content. Brief, concise, and packed with so much knowledge.
For shutdown/restart you can just use "shutdown now" without the -h. Adding -h leaves it up to the system to decide whether to halt or actually shutdown. The -H is for halt which stops processes but doesn't cut the power. I haven't seen anyone halt a system in the field.

Also, depending on your distro shutdown may not actually do anything or exist as a command. systemctl poweroff is cleaner then. (can also be caused by typing su root instead of su root - before shutdown because only the latter properly changes environment variables…)

I've used Linux for almost a decade as my primary OS on my desktop and laptop, and I never knew about shred. 95% of this stuff I knew already. About 5% of it I use on a regular basis - Vim, sudo apt update and ssh/sftp mostly. Sometimes mv for moving a boatload of files around, or some combination of commands to grab a list of certain files and move/delete them.
THANK YOU!!! Omg you did it ! I commented in your other video to please do a Linux list next :)
Outstanding. Learned so much nice and quick!
Took a month long Linux intro course. This video teaches everything that took that month but in a much more to the point and easier to understand way.
Thank you Chuck, great helpful videos. Am I the only one playing this at 0.75 speed? you talk freakin fast man... :-D

This is the best Linux commands video I have watched so far. Splendid!
Could you do a video on bash tricks from beginner to advanced? Beginner would be like piping and redirecting stdin, stdout, and stderr. Advanced would be like all the alt hot keys and similarly esoteric tricks.
that feels pretty good to already know most of these commands
Dear lord Chuck. That was super fast. I can literally hear the new neural connections forming in my brain 😂. Thank you for the awesome video

Personally I'd add "cd -" to go back to the last directory, sed and tr are useful with grep and awk, and "while read do done", super useful when looping through find results (which can use a command that's escaped with "{} \;". I used to pipe stuff into perl -e a lot too but I haven't done much scripting for the last decade or so, I started about 25 years ago in the late 90's on Solaris and sh & ksh before bash.
