    In *nix you need to enter the full path along with the executable name (command).
    If you are in the directory the path is ./

    hmph, yeah UA. Im not making any headway on this at all. Your last post didn't do me any good and I can't get anything to work. The VBox install went smooth as did the FreeBSD install into the VM. Or, at least, seemingly so.
    Im really at a loss, Im still looking things up right now but I haven't yet found anything to help.

    I really need some good newb advice right now

    When I go to the command list (?) this is all that comes up (see attachment), actually when I page down theres 5 or 6 more that come up.

    Now Im a complete *nix dunce as I lay here typing right now, and Im trying to change that, but as it stands I don't see how anyone gets anything done. Have I proven that I grew up under Windows?

    but seriously there has to be more than this. I don't even see commands to create or really manipulate files as one can, in say the Win command line.
    I really feel as if Im failing myself here.

    I mean, Im not sure about alot of these commands, but so far I haven't found one that would even get you connected to an outside network, or anything really, other than check out your own system.

    Im lost .... really I am.

    BTW, the 6 remaining commands that don't show in the screenshot are:
    boot-config
    read-config
    enable-module
    disable-module
    toggle-module
    show-module
