Terminal
You use the Terminal application to run command-line tools. Most of the tools described in
this chapter are command-line tools, such as dsimportexport, systemsetup, networksetup,
and diskutil.
Using the Terminal Application
Terminal lets you open a UNIX shell command-line session on your server or a remote server
you are administering. You’ll find Terminal in /Applications/Utilities/.
When you open Terminal, you see a prompt that usually includes the name of the local host,
the directory you’re using, your user name, and a symbol (for example, “[patsy6:/usr/sbin]
liz%”). In this example, patsy6 is the server’s host name, the directory you are working in is
/usr/sbin, and the user name is liz.
