Basic Skills for Entry Level I.T. Jobs - Command Prompt Part 1

[@xcalm_himex]

I just had my first job interview today for an ICT Operator position, and while I was preparing for it, I have watched a lot of your videos. This was one of the last ones and they have asked me what a MAC Address was and I was able to tell them where to find it because this video reminded me how to do it :Đ I'm so thankful for your channel!

[@Itcareerquestions]

This right here is amazing! I love getting comments like these! This makes going through all of this completely worth it! Congrats and good luck!

[@xcalm_himex]

I.T. Career Questions and I even got the job, so thank you 😊

[@MusicLover4196]

@Joshua Solwerski weird flex but ok

[@brazenbull636]

But, they asked you WHAT a Mac address is...

[@CrazyCat229]

Thank you so much! I'm not new to IT but I love that you are willing to share your knowledge. Other IT pros are not usually so willing. 😶

[@cartergreen6858]

Thanks. I’m 13 years old and I plan on getting into IT. I know a lot can change in 10-15 years but I figure it’s good to have experience. I’ve already worked with command prompt a ton and programmed a ton of random crap (text based games, etc.)

[@0.0meir73]

Do you use python?

[@alberteinstein1015]

I'm in the generally the same boat.

[@farion_5586]

[@HJRosa22]

I know this video is a little old but I really needed this! I want to get into I.T but I've been really hesitant to try to learn since I'm really worried about how little I actually know about it. I needed a start and I feel like this was it. Thank you a ton!

[@Faceybabybaby]

This is really helping me for my entry level interview today.

[@JoeVGaming]

How was it? Did you get the job?

[@ibiza8426]

How is it going?

[@JimInTally]

Congratulations on a video with a sterling quality that 95 % of other youtube instructional videos don't have: adequate sound level!!!

[@YoDumbo96]

Thank you Seth Rogen of computers! You are the legend in my start of the I.T field. Thank you!

[@coachminix702]

Changing my career at 30 yo, always loved playing on the computer as a kid, looking to expand my knowledge and you're super helpful. Thanks!

[@titoportillo5441]

You should really continue with these command prompt basics! Already checked 1,2,3 but I want more!

[@Itcareerquestions]

+Tito Portillo Well I guess I could start working on another CMD Prompt video if you're asking for it! Anything specific you want to see?

[@lavondatodd573]

@@Itcareerquestions I would like to see more vids on when to use certain command prompts such when an interface is down, node up, more along that nature.

[@fantasyfilters580]

Very good teacher 👍👍

[@TonyaBrownSysAdmin]

Ipconfig and ipconfig /all I use regularly. Never used net statistics srv before. Great stuff! Can't wait for the next video.🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

[@Itcareerquestions]

+Tonya Brown Thank you, hopefully next week I will put the next one out! net statistics srv is my favorite one!

[@hectorleon9925]

wow Impressed right off the back! Informative with introducing the real world weight behind knowing how each command works with it.

[@amazingme3499]

I loved your videos! I've watched about 8 of them, Im total entry level, actually below that and I have been struuuggling and I am so happy I found your videos you do an excellent job at breaking things down. THANK YOU. You've brought up all kinds of stuff I am in the process of needing to know and I needed these, thank you!

[@rolinekylerjreluzor6638]

I'm 16 And I want to be a IT expert but i need to work hard for that job/dream . and you are helping me alot . pretty excited for my dream job. thank you very much.

[@Itcareerquestions]

I'm glad to hear this. Makes this well worth it.

[@donlee4238]

you must be an expert at the command line by now Roline

[@Spankytimez]

This video means so much to my life. Thank you for giving your hard fought for knowledge freely to us plebs ;)

[@johnpiernicky8674]

Zach, love these videos. Great information for the novice techie. I'm going for a degree in Cybersecurity, and I have had almost no previous IT experience. I've taken 4 of my classes so far, and the only thing I don't like is there isn't enough hands on material like this. We learned about ipconfig and pinging, but getting the statistics of how long the computer has been running and other information that you are showing in these videos is invaluable. Could you please start an entire series playlist that you do tutorials like this? I see on your channel you have a lot of useful information, but it would be really nice for you to have a dedicated playlist that really showcases and gets people learning some great information! Please!

[@mattwilson717]

Really really great teacher. I’m going for IT school at the end of this year and don’t wanna be the slow guy, so I hope these help me.

[@Itcareerquestions]

Thank you, I hope this helps you as well!

[@IMYOLKED]

6 years later and video is still relevant. Randomly stumbled across this and wish I have 5 years ago when I first got into IT haha

[@nextgenit4425]

Great video that goes over the core fundamentals of the command prompt on windows. I'll make sure to watch the rest of the series as well.

[@rafaelflores9258]

Your channel is going to blow up! This great info! Keep on keepin' on brotha!

[@amanpathak2k]

Is it just about byhearting the command language or you can do whatever you want to do with it ..

Thanks for the video really happ yo find it (IT student ) next track learning to type

[@jessebrown9186]

If your trying to see how long a computer has been on for can you do that remotely or only on the device that you running the command prompt from? Or would it be easier to remote assist and run command prompt from then?

[@path3359]

Really useful info, thanks

[@Josh-qb9co]

Thank you so much good Sir! Keep it up!

[@varanttchalikian1031]

I am typing "net statistics srv" but nothing is happening?

[@weathamorris4251]

What if your environment uses Asp?

[@ravien6273]

Just a question about the "net statistics srv" command, isn't a command just to check the following statistics shown below like the "No's system error, etc, etc.." not about how long the computer's been up because when I tried/tested it on my PC the statistic date that was stated was 22 days ago and I don't believe my computer's running that long since I rebooted so many time like I only use it for about 8-12 hrs. Maybe the statistic is just to check the statistic on errors and they get refreshed whenever the computer's data on statistics become full. Idk, correct me if I'm mistaken :)

[@varanttchalikian1031]

so I can ask for a customer's IP address to see if there network is up and running?

[@JJFlores197]

Probably not a good idea. Its unlikely an average computer user is going to understand how to find their public IP address.

[@Sorkai341]

You have my respect sensei

[@fstopspictures8834]

what prog language do i need to learn for recording music with a daw?

[@SP3C7REGaming]

[@jakejake4410]

I have been fellowing your videos couple months, I subscribed thanks for providing information in IT field. Looking forward to my security+, but do I need strong networking like Cisco in order to be cyber security entry level or network+ is just good enough? Going orders security+ to CEH to finally Cissp when I have more experience level. Security+ is first my target in the cyber security field. I don’t know why but I’m able to hack in wireless and cmd to change someone’s admin can easily login your system using cmd prompt, is a lot to explain but I’m targeting cyber security field. I love to solve challenges it gets me excited in cyber security.

[@Itcareerquestions]

Thank you! Net+ is fine!

[@mmmmmm72631]

Wait one sec I’m confused bc in 11 and started using cmd a lil while ago so if you ping a website , they’ll know you pinged it?

[@JJFlores197]

Of course. Web servers can see your IP address as well as if you ping. Realistically, nothing bad happens if you ping a website for a little bit.

[@RedSquareLanguage]

[@iknownothing495]

Most (young) people don't have a clue what it was like in the early PC years (1980's). You booted your PC - from a floppy disk - and then you got the 'A:\'>' command prompt.... And that was it... Everything had to be typed at the command prompt. No fancy graphical user interfaces. No mouse..

You can troubleshoot some things over the Internet but that is also very limited. It really depends on what you're troubleshooting.

[@chrisdelacroix1231]

+PC Simplest what I mean is you as a programmer or I.T. specialist...can you trouble shoot another computer remotely?
