  • Isn't sudo specific to Ubuntu and not Debian?

  • No, sudo is available on most Linux type systems.

  • Really? I've only seen it with Ubuntu. So it's a program right so you could install it on any Linux system right?

  • Exactly. sudo is a program that you can install and set up. I'm going to do a lesson on how to do it on debian. In fact i think i'll do the next lesson on permissions and sudo.

  • I learned a lot about file permissions from TLDP's Introduction to Linux HOWTO. I'm still reading through it. It's quite long.

  • @MartianStation What happens if you sudo apt-get remove sudo, then?

  • @Devourer09 Becaus of the Fact MacOS is Unix-Like too, you can install it on a Mac too!

  • thx, again very helpfull :)

    but i have 2 questions:

    - when i type find ... --> it seems it search only in the current directory and no subfolders are included into the search, what did i wrong?

    - what is the shortcut for leaving manuel descriptions in the prompt (also needed for the less command, ...)

    i misinterpret this word and also my brute force search failed :D

    sry english is not my mother tongue ;)

    Keep it up! I like ;)

  • Hi Charas66,

    the find command follows the following syntax

    find [options] [path] [expression]

    so if you want to search ~/ for text you would type

    find ~/ -name text*

    you can also use the locate commands which does an indexed search.

    As for exiting a man page or less hit q.

    Hope that helps!

  • thx, now i got it :)
