Solved System Manager's Manual SS(8)

[jasonhirsh]

I am doing something stupid even for me... I am trying to run the subject utility by ss -a (ss in both upper and lowercase but all I get is

SS: Command not found.

I imagine its gas to do with my path... I am using
tcsh
shell and my path is

/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/home/Jason/bin

I know it is something simple but for last couple of week even the simple. is hard

You mean Linux's ss(8) command? As you may have suspected from the way I referred to it, it's a Linux specific command. On FreeBSD we have sockstat(1).

I was thinking that.. but when trying to deal with my MAJOR
issue with trying to use Letsencrypt. this tool was suggested to me by yes a linux user. Then I search and got this https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi...8&manpath=CentOS+7.1&arch=default&format=html

Why don't you explain what the problem is? We can probably help with that.

Then I search and got this https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi...8&manpath=CentOS+7.1&arch=default&format=html

That's a CentOS manual page.

Ok I remain confused. since I git to it from freeBSD (I thought) manual. but hey Its what I thought anyway.

The manual system on the FreeBSD site has manual pages for CentOS, Rocky, SuSe, Debian, Ubuntu, MacOS, HP-UX, NetBSD, OpenBSD and a bunch more. It not just the FreeBSD manual pages you can look up. On the link you provided it was set to "CentOS 7.1", so it showed you CentOS 7.1 specific manual pages.
