###Basic GNU/Linux/UNIX Command Line Interface (CLI) Utilities###

 tty = reveals current Teletype Terminal (TTY)
 w = reveals currently logged-in sessions
 ls/dir(alias to ls -l)
 ls -lF - returns long format and '/' at the end of directories
 ls -lF | grep /
 touch - creates empty files / updates time stamps(atime/mtime) on objects
 rm - removes objects (files/directories/etc.)
 echo - echoes values and variables
 echo $? - returns exit status of previously-executed command
 set || env - reveals current shell variables
 pwd - returns working directory
 cd - changes directories; with no options, places us in HOME directory
 mkdir - creates a directory
 whoami - returns currently logged-in user
 su - switches users

BASH communicates user-status (privilged/non-privileged) via the prompt:
 1. prompt that terminates with '#' reflects 'root' user
 2. non '#' prompt indicates non-root user

 id - reveals id information (uid,gid,groups)
 cp - copies files(files/directories)
 mv - moves/renames files, and tries to preserve timestamp
 stat - returns properties (size,inode,atime,mtime,ctime,perms,etc.) of files

IF Host Key changed, you will see this


@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@    WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!     @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been changed.
The fingerprint for the RSA key sent by the remote host is
4f:73:ab:5f:a8:62:fd:70:4c:03:53:79:2b:35:13:fe.
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in /home/username/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message.
Offending key in /home/username/.ssh/known_hosts:1
RSA host key for 192.168.0.123 has changed and you have requested strict checking.
Host key verification failed.

to resolve this, just run 'rm -rf ~username/.ssh/known_hosts'
