I use a Linux host, and I don't know Linux. I've picked up a bit here and there, and use the CPanel interface the account comes with. I don't have shell access, so can't use Linux commands directly. I used command line based OSs ages ago, just enough to get by, so have a rough idea of the ten most common commands.
I asked my husband about a few things (like what does CHMOD do), then found how to do them using CPanel and my FTP client.
