Well the actual syntax is:\nmount [deviceName] [mountPoint]\nmount command is used to mount a device to operating system for use:\n\nIn the following command\nmount /dev/floppy /mnt/floppy\nwe are actually mounting a floppy to a folder, the original device is configured in /dev/floppy and we will access it using logical path /mnt/floppy.

Please clear your question.\n\nA 't' or 'T' as the last character of the "ls -l" mode characters\nindicates that the "sticky" (save text image) bit is set. See ls(1) for\nan explanation the distinction between 't' and 'T'.\n\nThe sticky bit has a different meaning, depending on the type of file it\nis set on...\n\nsticky bit on directories\n=========================\n[From chmod(2)]\nIf the mode bit S_ISVTX (sticky bit) is set on a directory, files\ninside the directory may be renamed or removed only by the owner of\nthe file, the owner of the directory, or the superuser (even if the\nmodes of the directory would otherwise allow such an operation).\n\n[Example]\ndrwxrwxrwt  104 bin        bin          14336 Jun  7 00:59 /tmp\n\nsticky bit on regular files\n===========================\n[From chmod(2)]\nIf an executable file is prepared for sharing, mode bit S_ISVTX prevents\nthe system from abandoning the swap-space image of the program-text\nportion of the file when its last user terminates.  Then, when the next\nuser of the file executes it, the text need not be read from the file\nsystem but can simply be swapped in, thus saving time.\n\n[From HP-UX Kernel Tuning and Performance Guide]\nLocal paging. When applications are located remotely, set the "sticky\nbit"\non the applications binaries, using the chmod +t command. This tells the\nsystem to page the text to the local disk. Otherwise, it is "retrieved"\nacross the network. Of course, this would only apply when there is actual\npaging occurring. More recently, there is a kernel parameter,\npage_text_to_local, which when set to 1, will tell the kernel to page all\nNFS executable text pages to local swap space.\n\n[Example]\n-r-xr-xr-t   6 bin        bin         24111111111664 Nov 14  2000\n/usr/bin/vi\n\nsticky bit on symlinks\n======================\nIn HP-UX 10.0 and later, a symbolic link that has its sticky bit set is\ncalled a transition link (i.e. links to ease the transition to the new\nSVR4 filesystem layout).  Transition links are a bit faster, because  the\nlinked-to filename is stored in the inode itself, instead of using an\nallocation unit to store the link.  For more info on the purpose for\ntransition links, see the tlinstall(update_aid) manpage.\n\nIn order to set the sticky bit on a symlink, one must use the\nundocumented\nlchmod system call (i.e. lchmod("/bin", 041777)).\n\n[Example]\nlr-xr-xr-t   1 root       sys              8 Jun  7 01:00 /bin ->\n/usr/bin

It's a command-line based operating system.\n\nIt allows you to control your computer using text commands (like in Unix), rather than a GUI (Graphical User Interface) like Windows.

It depends on the complexity of the rename operation you wich to do.\n\nTypically, the mv command is used for renaming, but it is not well suited for batch renames.\n\nMost Linux systems now have a newer command called "rename," however its syntax can be complicated.\n\nThe rename command takes three arguements, from, to, and a list of files upon which the rename is to be applied.\n\nFor instance:\n\nrename .JPG .jpg *.JPG \n\nwill change all files ending in a .JPG extension to a .jpg extension.

The command to delete a folder in the command prompt is rmdir /S /Q. Rmdir stands for remove directory which is another name for folder. /S makes it recursive, meaning it will not fail if there are files or subfolders inside that folder. /Q means that it will not ask you for confirmation.\n\nIf this still does not work, and something is indeed still using the file, I recommend unlocker. It is a free tool which does not contain spyware or viruses and can be used to delete the folder. You can download it here: http://filehippo.com/download_unlocker/\n\nI hope this helps!

ls -l | more\n\n( '|' is called pipe, to get this use 'shift' and '&#92;' keys)\n\nyou should use space bar to go to the next page of list

Did you try using the /? after the set command?\n\nEx:\n\nset /?\n\nThat displays the parameters and options.\n\n/? works with any DOS command.

I believe you're trying to do some kind of piping with Unix script commands... It's been ages since I've done it myself, but I'm sure you'll find plenty of documented sources on the Net. You can also try and install one of those free Linux distributions to test the script.

Hello. I tried it, and I was successfull, so I didnt get Permission Denied (Linux, Debian unstable).\nTry "echo $PWD" to see, which directory try to touch a file in.\nAlso try "set" to see all environment variables.\n\nAnd probably it could be a good ide to share your crontab with us.\n\n#!/bin/sh\nset

Can you post more details of what you are trying to do, to terminate a running programme usually: kill followed by the PID number of the programme will do it. a good place for linux help is www.justlinux.com

When you right click on a file and then drag it on to any other location, windows gives you options to "Move", "Copy", "Create Shortcuts" to the new location or "Cancel" the operation. \n\nTry it!

Check your path:\n\necho $PATH\n\nIf that is empty you will not be able to get anywhere.  Then check your .login and .cshrc, .bashrc, .tcshrc, and/or .profile, depending on which shell you are using.  Sometimes you can add stuff that inadvertently obliterates the path.\n\nIf you have another account, you might try logging in under that to see if it has a path.  If not you've got real problems.\n\nIf it isn't empty, it should say something lilke /bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin: etc. Make sure that the directory your programs are in is listed there.
