.SH NAME
|
|
intro \- introduction to system administration
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The commands described in this chapter are intended only for system
|
|
administration tasks. On traditional Unix systems, use of these
|
|
routines are typically restricted to the superuser (root).
|
|
.LP
|
|
System administration commands are usually kept in either
|
|
.BR /sbin ,
|
|
.BR /usr/sbin ,
|
|
or
|
|
.BR /etc .
|
|
Because of the lack of user file permissions under GNO, it is often
|
|
possible for non-privaledged users to execute these commands. Therefore,
|
|
in the interest of system integrity, these directories should not be in the
|
|
.BR PATH
|
|
of any user other than the superuser.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The manual page syntax of this chapter conforms to that of Chapter 1,
|
|
.IR "Commands and Applications" .
