Introduction

Here you will find a lot of small applications, you don't find on your desktop task bar. No starter is there but on your computer. You can use them only on the cli. All commands are connected to the man pages. So you can read how to use them.

Directory	Description
/usr/sbin/ac	ac -- connect time accounting; If the file /var/log/utx.log exists, a record of individual login and logout times are written to it by login(1) and init(8), respectively. The ac utility examines these records and writes the accumulated connect time (in hours) for all logins to the standard output.
/usr/sbin/accton	The accton utility is used for switching system accounting on or off.
/usr/sbin/acpiconf	The acpiconf utility allows the user control of the ACPI power management functions.
/usr/sbin/acpidb	The acpidb utility is a debugger for the ACPI DSDT. It can parse and execute various AML methods and display the result.
/usr/sbin/acpidump	The acpidump utility analyzes ACPI tables in physical memory and can dump them to a file.
/usr/sbin/adduser	The adduser utility is a shell script, implemented around the pw(8) command, for adding new users. It creates passwd/group entries, a home directory, copies dotfiles and sends the new user a welcome message. It supports two modes of operation. It may be used interactively at the command line to add one user at a time, or it may be directed to get the list of new users from a file and operate in batch mode without requiring any user interaction.
/usr/sbin/amd	amd -- automatically mount file systems; This daemon is obsolete. Users are advised to use autofs(5) instead.
