problem to see the "filesystem"
I signed up this week with a webhost for a un-managed dedicated server, installed with red hat linux 9.0. When I log in via shell access (as root) I see only 3 directories. (anaconda-ks.cfg install.log install.log.syslog) I ask for support and this was the reply :
When you login with ssh you start in the home directory of the user you logged in as, so you're landing in /root if you login as root. In order to see the rest of the filesystem, you need to change to the / filesystem. Then you'll see the other directories. I don't understand "change to the filesystem" . Can somebody tell me more ? I have read for days all the docs and forums but unable to find. please help. aldrick |
they mean you have to:
cd / to get out of root's home directory (/root) cd changes directory / is the topmost directory on the system (like c:/ but less crapy and windows smelling) and linux 9.0 isn't a distro Please say Red hat 9.0 or no one will no what you mean. there are lots of 9.0s |
