Linux is an operating system for computers. It exists in various distributions such as Ubuntu, Red Hat and Fedora which are called Linux distros. Each of these distros comes in two versions, that is, the server and the desktop versions.

The sever versions of these distros have no graphics and supports only commands via the command line. This is to ensure a degree of security. This explains why most server computers run Linux as their OS. It also calls for the need to learn and understand the Linux commands.

The Linux command line supports numerous commands. These commands can be used to do everything in the system from the time of login to the time of logout or shutdown of the system.
