There are many commands! Some are more useful than others, some are used more frequently that others, some are used at the command prompt, some are used in the console. Here are some of those useful commands that sysops might use on most days, and some of those search strings that help you pluck information from the data files or live streams.
Linux prompt
- ./watchdbg | grep 'PC92\^VE7CCD-1' - looking for troubling data out of this node. Note: the ^ needs to be escaped with \
- ./watchdbg GB7AXX-3 - watch everything that's coming out of this node.
- ./watchdbg | grep '(connect) connect' - watching for connections, there are a lot of unsuccessful attempts aren't there.
- sudo service dxspider restart
Console commands
- sh/external_ip - just checking to see if your ip address changed since your last visit.
- sh/ver - did your node update last night? This will show you what version of dxspider you're running.
- sh/node - are all of your node links up?
- sh/user - all the users.
- directory - any new mail on your node?
- links - just who is connected, and what about them?
- set/register G0AYD - G0AYD sent you a message that he wants to be able to use your node for sending spots.
- stat/user <callsign> - everything you want to know about <callsign>
- sh/hf - a table of spot quantities, per day, per band, for the last month.
- sh/var @main::localhost_names - all of your IP addresses.
- mnodes - orderly listing of connected nodes (not included in DXSpider unless Kin's script is installed).
- musers - about all those connected users (not included in DXSpider unless Kin's script is installed).
- who - a list of the connected nodes and users, with some useful info about them.
- rcmd g6nhu-2 sh/ver - did G6NHU update his node?
- sh/debug - did I leave debug running? Is that why my disk is full!
