Systems administrators and power users know that the Mac's
command-line interface can be a powerful time saver and, in many
cases, the only method to accomplish certain tasks. But OS X brings
its unique capabilities to the command-line table, in the form of
utilities that leverage OS X's user interface, file system, and
security capabilities. This introduction to Command-Line
administration teaches users the basics of building workflows and
remote administration practices relevant to many server
technologies.
