Data Manipulation and Netcat

Just got done with chapter 2.  Yeah, 17 days later.  Oh well…

The 2nd chapter for me was a bit of a regurgitation of basic Linux commands, other than a few Data Manipulation commands:

  • sed – this command is ideal for editing files based on certain patterns or expressions
  • awk – another pattern matching tool, but more robust

…and the book talks about Netcat.  Now we are working with networking.

Glad to back on the train.
