[nflug] what's your linux admin IQ?

[Robert Meyer]

Been there, done that.  The only things I had to learn from in the "Days Before Fire" were the man pages and the original Bell Telephone white papers...  I actually read the Bill Joy paper on 'vi'.  I read all of the man pages in the system (Version 7), including sections 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.  So, without looking, who can name the 8 original sections of the man pages (not you, Ken.  You can get this one in your sleep :-)

Cheers!

Bob

As your punishment I sentence you to read the man(1) pages for every
command on the system!
