Memorize command-line tools to save time

#4: Memorize command-line tools to save time For those of you who are dealing with low bandwidth connections, having your common administrative tasks memorized from a command line can save everyone's time. For Windows XP systems, consider memorizing the following commands: Compmgmt.msc--Computer Management MMC snap-in, a good hub of all types of information, including the Event Log, Device Manager, and Services. Ipconfig--The TCP/IP configuration utility. Some common parameters include /release, /renew, /flushdns, and /registerdns. Shutdown.exe--A tool to remotely reboot or shut down a system. With appropriate permissions, a system can be rebooted remotely as well. Net Use--Can be used to map a drive, simply authenticate, or stop a mapping.
