Linux puter info.

What's on your Linux computer.

Just a simple batch file to collect information about your computer.  A bit dated and there are probably some commands that should have been included, but a good list of commands you can use to find out about your linux box. You will need to remove the "#" in front of some of the commands for them to work. You have to install some of the commands for them to work. You do not have to use all the commands like I did, but it will be interesting to see what is in the file generated. Great for documentation about the system. Good list to have for insurance purposes.

usage: sudo ./hwinfo2file.sh filename

$ sudo ./hwinfo2file.sh My_desktop_computer_info

Just was told about this neat little program that will let you know about some of your system variables.

[code]
 #include <stdio.h>

extern char **environ;

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
        char **i;
