Slackware commands


Right,,, as I stated on my previous post I have just reinstalled slackware on my old p4 3.2 box... clean install formatted hard drive ... no other packages installed.

listen ... command not found
man listen ..... i get the manual

is there something seriously changed from slack 10 to slack 13.1 ?? or do i suffer from C.R.S ( cant remember s***) lol

Thanks in advance

No idea what the 'listen' command you're remembering was, but the manpage is for the listen() syscall (It's in section 2 of the man-pages)

Your chmod: you forgot the space after the 700.

The listen manpage you are getting is a C library routine (/usr/man/man2/listen.2.gz) not a command line app

That'll be the man (2) page for Linux system calls callable from the C language. These are not Linux commands. What Linux command are you referring to ?

You're missing a space here - it should be
Code:
chmod 700 /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd
Oops - sorry for the repeated information - I was typing this while others where posting! Too slow at my typing obviously.
