Listing files in PuTTY for my RH9 root server

Quincy Wisdom · 07-04-2004, 02:05 PM

Hey there, I figured this would be the best place to stick this as I am also a newbie to linux.

I am using PuTTY to explore the server and to change some things, but how do I get PuTTY to list the files and directories inside other directories?

For example, I want PuTTY to print the files in the "/home/httpd/vhosts/" directory, and to display any other directories inside of it...

do you know how?

Thanks.

Okay, to display files / directories within the current working directory, type in:

ls

If you wish to show all files in all directories within the current working directory, type in:

ls *

please note that this is actually nothing at all to do with putty... all putty gives you is terminal access, what you're doing is stuff inside the terminal... exactly the same thing you can do on a local connection in any old terminal window.
