Need some fun commands while in SSH.
 

I figured out my friends root password. He and I are new to Linux. I used SSH to get into his computer and kept on annoying him with the eject command. He has no idea what was going on and I had a good laugh. Just wondering, can anyone think of any good commands I could use to annoy him? We are both using Fedora 14.

The wall command?

When I first started in Solaris someone got into my machine as me and set up a bunch of aliases for some of the common commands I use like ls and cd.

creating aliases seems a good option to annoy someone :)

I donno if its working, but you might try beep his comp?

echo \007

Any commands that will open up applications on his computer or something? Thanks for the wall command.

You could try creating text files in random locations, like on the desktop, with nano.


Theres also the old "poweroff" or "reboot".

you can use aplay or play to play random wave files.
