System Exploration

Introduction​

In the previous session, we introduced the Linux OS family via Kali Linux. With its help, we learned about the terminal and about basic file navigation commands, such as ls, cd, mkdir, rm. We also talked about processes and the ps command.

In today's session, we'll extend these concepts and learn some new commands, that we'll use in order to further explore our systems. We won't be learning any new Python tricks, but we'll be using it for scripts none

Reminders and Prerequisites​

For this session, you need to have a good understanding of last session's Linux concepts:

  • using the man pages;
  • using Tab;
  • navigating the file system;
  • creating and deleting new entries in the file system.

Make sure you have rehearsed and practiced them before the beginning of today's session.
