I have tried to track down the problem, but can't seem to get the system to recognize many of my basic commands, including cp and man, for example. Please help. I'm a newbie to UNIX, and have been reading trying to learn it. I understand the mac's darwin is based on BSD. Thanks and forgive me if I've intruded on this list with an improper question.
