You NEED to Know The Linux CLI!

The power of Linux is in the command line. This video will get you started in a BASH terminal, and you'll know more by the end than 99% of the world knows about Linux!!!

Truly, so many people are afraid of Linux, that even the most basic knowledge will be invaluable whether you're hoping to advance your career, get a new job, or just figure out if you even like Linux.

This video based on:
LPI Linux Essentials
Objective 2.1 - Command Line Basics

Strangely, the type command works on my install, but the man page for it isn't there. I found it online, though.
Update after watching the next lesson: `type - - help` works.
Second update: commands that are "shell builtin" don't have their own man page, you find them in the shell itself's one. So type is drowned somewhere in the massive 'man bash'. You can find it by typing `man bash`, and once in there `/type`, and then `n` until you reach the right occurrence of this string.

Very nice explanation, I just made a career change in IT-Security as Support. I work with proxy-servers and e-mail security, most likely McAfee(SkyHigh)/Cisco and since they are all based on Linux I need to learn it very fast. So thank you very much for your engagement!

Hey Shawn, your explanation about exporting variables makes sense, but when I tried to follow your same steps in my bash terminal in Ubuntu, it didn't work for me. I exported $THING with "export $THING" and then opened a child bash terminal with "bash", and the result with "echo $THING" came up as blank, same as before when I hadn't exported it. Is the export command different in ubuntu? Thanks for these vids by the way!
