You sound as if you need to learn about the unix basics -- commands
like ls, cd, more, cp, mv etc. There's a bit in the FreeBSD handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/basics.html
but you might find the "Introduction to Unix" course from Ohio State
to be more to your taste:
http://wks.uts.ohio-state.edu/unix_course/intro-1.html
Cheers,
Matthew
PS. Why are you using such an old version of FreeBSD? 2.2.8 came out
in December 1998, and it's way out of any active support. Unless you
have a specific need for 2.2.8 (eg. specific hardware support) I'd
strongly suggest updating to an up-to-date version -- 4.10 is probably
your best choice -- certainly if you're going to put that system on
the public internet.
