So I have begun my training following a plan that was laid out by my mentor. The first thing was the basics of windows command line. Now I have been in IT for over 10 years and have worked primarily on Windows operating systems. Up until this point I have only used the Windows command line interface (CLI) to check my IP, flush DNS, perform NETSTAT and on occasion run specific programs that can only be ran from the CLI. I had an idea that I could use it to make folders or move files around but I always defaulted to using the Windows GUI to get the job done. I never realized that it can be equally as powerful as Linux CLI. Going through the introductory lessons I learned that some of the commands you would use in Linux such as mkdir for making directories are the same in Windows. One of the cool things I learned, besides changing the color to look like the matrix, was see the attributions of files. It was so easy to just be in a directory and type "attrib" and see all the files and whether they were hidden, read only or a system file. It is definitely was a great way to start off the training and next up is Linux command-line. Looking forward to seeing what I learn there and get to share. Until next time.
