What does the ls command in Linux?
Exploration is the best thing! Try it!
It's a commonly used command. It lists the files in the current directory (or another directory if you specify). You can use flags to choose what information you need to see.
What company manufactures Linux?
No single company manufactures Linux. The Linux kernel is developed by thousands of individuals and hundreds of companies around the globe. Many companies then release Linux with their own selection of programs, in what are called "distros."
An SSH server is a daemon that listens for requests to log in using SSH from remote computers. SSH basically allows you to control a Linux or Unix computer just as if you were sitting at the physical machine.
What are stored in a file's inode?
Mostly depends on the filesystem, but generally it'll be the name of the file, the kind of file it is (Regular, directory, or link.), where the file is found physically, which can be multiple values. File's size, and I believe also file permissions.

How do you display a binary file in Linux?
There are several tools that let you examine the inside of a binary file in Linux. One of them is called "hexdump" (see "man hexdump"). Another is "od" (octal dump - though either of these can output the file in various formats). Also, you may want to try "strings" - this shows all the text strings in a file.
LVM is a logical volume manager for the Linux kernel; it manages disk drives and similar mass-storage devices.
What do you mean by multiuser multiprogramming multiprocessing?
To allow multiple users to successfully use Microsoft Dynamics GP while Visual Studio Tools integrations are accessing data, you must choose the type of locking used. You must also handle any error conditions that occur as a result of multiple users working with the same row in a table.
What type of software is Linux?
Linux is an operating system, like Windows, that runs on the Linux Kernel, which is based off of UNIX.
Why is Windows more prone to viruses than Linux?
It is widely believed that the reason Windows is so prone to viruses is due to its popularity on the desktop, as Windows powers approximately 87% of the world's desktop computers. While this is true, there is actually much more to it than that, and it really has to do with the basic architecture of the operating system itself.
Windows, as well as DOS before it, was designed to be a single-user operating system. This means that the operating system is designed to let the user have free reign over the entire system. However, the system has no way to tell who's doing what on the system, and no means of enforcing who can do what. As such, virus-laden code can all too easily sneak in via the Internet without your knowledge or permission.
Some versions of Windows, such as Windows NT, 2000, XP Professional, Server 2003, Server 2008, and Vista, have multiple user logins. However, Microsoft chose to preserve compatibility with programs designed for other versions of Windows, such as Windows 95, 98, or XP Home Edition, because those programs were used to having the whole computer all to themselves. As such, they had to do some fancy hacks to pull all that off, and in the process, they still left even Server 2003 and Server 2008 full of holes for hackers to exploit.
Apple's Mac OSX and Linux do not suffer from this problem. This is because they are designed from the ground up with security in mind, whereas Microsoft Windows was created for convenience with security being little more than an afterthought. Mac OSX and Linux both use a filesystem that has a strictly-enforced set of permissions that are attached to every file and folder in the system, and they spell out specifically who is allowed to do what with each file or folder.
In Windows, for a virus to infect your system, it first has to install itself onto your system. As previously stated, it's very common for viruses to do this without your knowledge or permission. But with Mac OSX or Linux, you have to have administrative privileges in order to install or uninstall a program. On Mac OSX or some Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu, all you do to install or uninstall a program is enter your password when prompted to do so before you will be allowed to proceed (quite a few other Linux distributions have you enter a root password instead, requiring you to remember two passwords, one for yourself, and the other for the all-powerful root account). If, in the case of Mac OSX or Ubuntu, you don't have administrative privileges, or in the case of other distros, you don't know the root password, you simply can't do it. And that's a good deal of why Mac OSX and Linux are way more secure than Windows -- because viruses simply don't have the authorization to do install themselves behind your back with Mac OSX or Linux.
How is Linux better than other operating system?
Well linux is free so you never have to pay when a new versions comes out, its also faster and less hardware demanding for an example i installed puppy linux on a old windows ME machine and puppy linux only used 68mb of ram and 87mb of ram when i used skype and web browser, and was able to do everything id normally do on newer hardware.
What is a command for display all environment variables in Linux?
It depends on which shell program you are using. The 'set' command may be used in some shells, and the 'env' command may also be used. Just be aware that some of the commands will only show you variables that have been exported to the environment, whereas other commands will show all variables in the environment, whether they were exported or not.
A "pipe" is where output is redirected to another program. It exists in Windows as well as Unix (although you don't see much of it in Windows usage).
The character used in piping is the pipe character ('|').
For example, you wanted to create a MD5 hash of the message "Hello World!" you'd do echo "Hello World!" | md5sum. The echo command will output "Hello World" to standard output (also called stdout), and the pipe will redirect that to the md5sum utility, which will calculate the MD5 hash from the output as input.
Yes. Many Linux distributions were created that target PowerPC Macs (Yellow Dog Linux especially; Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora also have ports). Any modern distro for PCs can also be used on an Intel Mac. Debian has / had a version for 68k Macs as well, but this is no longer well-maintained, and many programs lag behind the other ports in their versions.
Software such as Virtual Box allow you to create a virtual Linux computer on your Mac. (See links below)
Is Linux web hosting compatible with windows?
Yes. A new Linux server will happily found this article you assemble together with your glass windows computer's desktop to the globe. Only avoid front page, or OR language or Database SQL server and you will possibly be very good. You will not employ those ideas by mistake: will not be anxious. For more on POwer Up Hosting
How would you allow the users onto your SSH server and no one else?
It depends on what specific ssh server software you're using, but generally there's a configuration file where you can specify users that are allowed to use ssh.
For example, with OpenSSH, the file is probably /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and the line you would want in that file would be
AllowUsers Archie
Hmm... Slitaz is a minimalist Linux distro if I'm not mistaken. If you have your distribution media you should be able to at least recreate your /var directory structure.
If the /var directory structure is re-created, it shouldn't be too difficult to get most everything else working.
How do you record your desktop in KDE?
There are several applications available for recording your desktop (screencasting) in Linux. The most popular method is recordmydesktop, with both KDE and GTK frontends. Some other, less popular applications for this purpose include XVidCap (useful because you can select a specific area and size to record) and VLC. KDE 4 includes an application for recording the desktop built-in, although the output file isn't very compatible with most media players and will need to be converted.
