Welcome to my Solaris 10 notes
== My Solaris 10 notes ==
 
== Components of Sun OS ==
 
Three components of Sun OS
* Kernel - the core of Sun OS and manages all physical resources of the computer
* Shell - a command interpreter and interfaces between user and kernel
* Directory Hierarchy
 
=== Default shells ===
Sun OS default primary shells:
* Bourne shell - original unix system shell and default for root user. regular user prompt is $ and root is #
* C shell - command line history, aliasing, and job control. default regular user is hostname% and root is hostname#
* Korn Shell - superset of Bourne shell plus C shell like features and enhancements. command line history, aliasing, job control, and command line editing default regular prompt is $ and root is #
 
Sun OS contains three alternative shells:
* Bash shell - GNU project Bourne Again SHell is bourne compatible shell that contains handy features from Korn and C shell.
* Z shell - resembles Korn shell plus enhancements
* TC shell - C compatible shell plus enhancements
 
== Logging into Sun OS ==
 
All users must log into system
 
=== Desktop login ===
 
Use direct login or options
 
password requirements 6-8 characters, contain at least two alpha characters and one numerical or special character. cannot be same as user login name, different than last password by at least three characters, reverse of user login name
password requirements don't apply to root user or regular user password set by root user
 
 
== Desktop Environment ==
 
Solaris 10 includes Common Desktop Environment (CDE) and Java Desktop System (JDS) desktop environments.
 
== Command Line ==
 
Run command line in a terminal window
 
Use Unix system commands to instruct the computing system to perform specific tasks
 
Commands can be executed with or without options or arguments
 
Unix command syntax is the order and structure of command line components.
 
Unix command line syntax = [command] [options] [arguments]
 
* command determines what system will execute
* option determines how command will run and always begins with - and are case sensitive, can use multiple options, combine options into one - or use a - for each option
* argument determines what command will affect
 
Multiple commands can be entered on one command line by using semi-colon(;) between each command.
 
=== Basic Solaris 10 commands ===
 
<populate>
 
== man pages ==
 
display man page by typing man command
 
Syntax:
* $ man command
* $ man option command
* $ man option filename
 
=== Navigating man page ===
 
* Space bar = page forward
* Return = line forward
* b = page backward
* /pattern = to perform a forward pattern search
* n = to move to next pattern match, must be proceeded with /pattern search
* h = provides navigation help
* q = quit man page
 
=== Searching man pages ===
This searches all man pages. To search while inside a man page see Navigating a man page pattern search.
 
Search by section syntax:
* man -s number [command|filename]
Search by keyword syntax:
* man -k keyword
