And so, dear friends, let me press that question upon you. Never mind
you--and you are to choose with entire freedom--whether you wish to human
weaknesses in the light of eternity.

Can the command line support wildcard or multiple variables? I would like
to use the following command:
ausearch -sv no -ui >499 (or -ui 5*)
looking at the audit data and I want to look for success=no and the
uid>499.
The >499 is not accepted as numerical. I have tried to enclose it with
different brackets without any luck. I know I can grep the desired
results, however the format does not stay as needed.

Know this should be a very easy answer, but cannot find the answer anywhere
online. Sometimes when I run a command (not gedit or vi) the command
prompt doesn't come back up. I have tried everything I can think of to get
it back (quit, exit, esc, etc.). I end up shutting down and starting over,
but that is a huge waste of time. Help!! Thanks!!

Are you posting a homework question here??? If so, it would have been

@codjoe - Your wish is granted! Please begin reading the lessons on this
site.
@kalai - Your question is too general. There are dozens of commands to read
files from disk, depending on what you want to do with the data. See the
Linux Commands section in the navbar here.

Its really nice commands.......
I welcome your comments. However... I am puzzled by many people
who say "Please send me the Linux tutorial." This website *is* your Linux Tutorial! Read everything here, learn
all you can, ask questions if you like. But don't ask me to send what you already have. :-)
