Hey Here I will give u top 30 Commands of Linux that r Beginner
Commands and Important.
1. find: Use this command when you need to search for files in a

moves to the sub directories. The –name option makes the search case
sensitive, while the –iname option searches irrespective of the case.
2. grep: You use the grep command in order to find lines in a
particular file that match a given string or words.
3. man: The man command is used as the manual pager for the system. It
brings online documentation for a particular command.
4. ps: This is the process command, which shows you the status of all
the processes that are being run by a unique id, known as the PID.
5. kill: This command is used in order to kill a process that is not
responding or is not being used. All you need is to known the process
ID or PID. To find the process id, you need to run ps-A with the grep
command (ps-A | grep processname).
6. whereis: When you need to locate the binary, sources and the manual
page of a command you use the whereis command.
7. service: This is the command that is used in order to control the
start, stop or restart function of a particular service. You do not
have to restart your system in order to start, stop or restart the
services.
8. alias: This is a built in shell command which is used in order to
assign the name for a long command or for a frequently used command.
9. df: Use this command when you want to report the disk usage of a
file system. It is quite useful for the user and also for the system
admin.
10. rm: This command is used in order to remove complete files and
directories from your system.

Advanced Commands
1. ifconfig: You will use the ifconfig command when you need to
improve the kernel-resident network interfaces. The command is usually
needed for system tuning and debugging, but it is also used during
boot time in order to set up the interfaces.
2. netstat: This is an advanced command for Linux users that is used
to display information related to the network. This includes
information such as routing tables, network connections, masquerade
connections, interface statistics and others.
3. nslookup: This command will be used when you need to find
information about Internet servers. It finds you the name server
information for the domains that are querying the DNS.
4. dig: The dig tool is used in order to query the DNS nameservers. If
you need to find information on host addresses, mail exchanges,
nameservers and other related information, then this is the tool for
you. You can use the command from Linux and Mac OS X operating
systems.
5. uptime: The uptime command is used in order to verify what all
happened when a server has been left unattended. It is especially
useful when you sit down in front of the server machine and see
something gone awry.
6. wall: This command is used to send a message to all logged in
users. You can only send the message to those with their message
permission setting at 'yes' though. The message is given as an
argument for the wall command.
7. mesg: Users can use the 'write' command in order to send messages
to you. But as the server admin, you can use the mesg command in order
to decide whether they can. You can choose from 'n' and 'y', which
allow messages to not popup and popup on your screen respectively.
