Re: Tips and tricks on using the command line.

So I've been looking for mention of PBX and Asterisk when this question came up.
Should we start making a list here of SSH and SFTP commands so people who want to start using Linux like Ubuntu on a VPS can have some sort of idea on where to begin?
When I first logged in, I was told to type 'apt-get update', where it would refresh the list of repositories and look for pacakges in the http://archive.ubuntu.com/
Once the search is complete, type 'apt-get upgrade',, which will install all of the packages that need updating.
If you want to search for a specific package using the advanced package tool, which is what apt stands for, type 'apt-cache search packagename Example: 'apt-cache search samba'. If the package exists, I believe you type 'apt-get install packagename'. Some packages have extra things. For example, if you're installing Apache, My SQL, and PHP, you'd specify the type of PHP package you want with a dash. Like this. 'apt-get install php-nameofsubpackage'
Note, I used the single quotation mark so you can see where the commands start and end. For this I am using Secure CRT, which is portable, and supports multiple protocols.
