The more you act, the more you know; the deeper your knowledge, the further you can go. To stimulate students’ interest and enthusiasm for studying information technology, the School of Information Technology has specially launched the “IT Knowledge Base” column. Continuous effort, like water dripping through stone, conveys the pulse of information, cultivates social talents, and strives together to fully build a modern socialist country!
The Directory Structure of Linux
-
home: This directory stores the home directories of ordinary users. In Linux, each user has their own directory, which generally corresponds to the user’s account commands.
-
etc: This directory contains all the configuration files and subdirectories needed for system management.
-
usr: This is a very important directory where many user applications and files are stored, similar to the Program Files directory in Windows.
-
opt: This directory is used for additional software installations on the host, such as database installations; it is empty by default and contains installation packages.
-
usr/local: This is another directory for additional software installations on the host, typically for programs installed from source code compilation.
-
var: This directory stores items that are constantly expanding, and it is customary to place frequently modified directories here, including various log files.
