Hi all, I am a total novice in Linux (well, the class is intro to Unix), so I need a little help on this. "This" refers to the following instructions: 6. Print out your line of the password file. Please note the space after your name and before the file name /etc/passwd. It is needed. username at gort ~ $ grep your-username /etc/passwd | lpr ------ So I did substitute my username in the example command line above, but nothing happens. Tried a number of times. Let's resume: Turn in the printout from part marked as follows: your-name *** Lab 4.1: Setup UNIX account the number of hidden files in your directory. ------ We are using PuTTY and SSH. I successfully changed my initial password with passwd command, but this second part of the first lab about printing out the password line can't get to work. Also, when I enter man command, it asks me what manual do I want? Is there any for a beginner like myself that will be useful to start with? Many thanks in advance! Ned
