Again you were right - thanks.

But this brings up another question - as a *newbie* (or should I say
a *lurker*) who has been following this list for several month before
even installing LINUX, I knew that I must read the documentation
before I ask what might be silly questions. So even before
installing, I read (almost from cover to cover) the 1100 page "LINUX
UNLEASHED" and the Walsh installation guide, and I've read HOWTO's
where I thought they might apply to whatever I was doing. But in all
this reading, I didn't come accoss a list of basic commands and/or
utilities. I didn't even know that "df" existed. Just as I didn't
know about "mseg" which someone told me about on this list a few
weeks ago in helping me solve another problem. And there must be many
more important programs that I should know about. 

Where can I find a comprehensive list (sort of a user's manual) -
either on paper or (better still) on-line ???

TIA
