A few days back, I listed some Linux commands for getting hardware information. Now onto software and operating system information. Again, you may need to run some of these as root and your mileage may vary, since not all distros are alike.
List version of Red Hat/Fedora/CentOS
# cat /etc/redhat-release
List version of SuSE
# cat /etc/SuSE-release
List verion of Ubuntu
# cat /etc/lsb-release
Kernel info
# uname -a
View network info
# ifconfig
DNS servers
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
Hostname and Gateway
# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
Shell being used
# echo $SHELL
Check cron jobs (scheduled tasks)
# crontab -l
The final Linux command installment will cover some troubleshooting commands.
