Diffrence Between Power SHELL and CMD

Difference Between PowerShell & CMD



A shell is a type of program that allows users to access kernel services from the GUI layer of the operating system. Every type of operating system has this function, given that the graphical level of the operating system, as in Windows, Linux or MAC OS, is a type of shell. Command-line interface shells are usually preferred by advanced users for some tasks because they are much faster due to less overhead.

  1. Scripting Language

    • Windows PowerShell's scripting language interacts directly with the .NET framework, processing objects rather than simple text. This language also allows for full control of networked computers within the domain, making it perfect for domain administrators. This makes it much more powerful than the command line accessed from "CMD."

    Batch Language

    • Batch languages are typically a layer of abstraction above scripting languages, using simplified commands that incorporate a large amount of services. CMD is set up this way, in order to be more easily understood and used by users who don't necessarily need as many functions readily available.

    Extensible Interface

    • Since PowerShell extensively uses the .NET framework, new commands, syntax and interactivity with other programs and services can be easily implemented. This flexibility contributes to PowerShell being a much more powerful and flexible shell program than CMD.

    Based on DOS

    • CMD, also called Command Prompt, is designed to resemble MS-DOS, although it is not running MS-DOS, which would be an entirely different operating system running within Windows. The current form of CMD is set up with the syntax of MS-DOS so that it is familiar to legacy users, but users shouldn't expect MS-DOS programs to be automatically compatible in CMD.

Docker Container Management from Cockpit

Cockpit can manage containers via docker. This functionality is present in the Cockpit docker package. Cockpit communicates with docker via its API via the /var/run/docker.sock unix socket. The docker API is root equivalent, and on a properly configured system, only root can access the docker API. If the currently logged in user is not root then Cockpit will try to escalate the user’s privileges via Polkit or sudo before connecting to the socket. Alternatively, we can create a docker Unix group. Anyone in that docker group can then access the docker API, and gain root privileges on the system. [root@rhel8 ~] #  yum install cockpit-docker    -y  Once the package installed then "containers" section would be added in the dashboard and we can manage the containers and images from the console. We can search or pull an image from docker hub just by searching with the keyword like nginx centos.   Once the Image download...

Add The Group Information IN Yum Repository in simple Two steps

= Yum groups and repositories = Yum supports the group commands   * grouplist   * groupinfo   * groupinstall   * groupremove   * groupupdate Groups are read from the "group" xml metadata that is optionally available from each repository. If yum has no repositories which support groups then none of  the group operations will work.  #yum grouplist    This will list the installed and available groups for your system in two    separate lists. If you pass the optional 'hidden' argument then all of     the groups which are set to 'no' in the group xml tag.   yum groupinfo groupname     This will give you detailed information for each group including:   description, mandatory, default and optional packages.       #yum groupinstall groupname      #yum groupupdate groupname   Despite their differing names both of these commands perform the same   func...
