Re: need some command help

No command (that I know of) to list running daemons, since daemons are just regular applications running in the background.  You can check the output of ps -aux or ls /var/run/daemons to get an idea.

To find files with a size more than 100MB, use the 'find' command:

find /var/log -size +100M

Check out man find for more information
