I understand that pinging has nothing to do with http. I was just letting
everyone know that the networking is properly configured. I am not a
beginner, I've been using computers for over 25 years. I am just a beginner
at Linux. I imagined it was a shell command. I just don't know the syntax.
I tried running xitami from the prompt already using xitami and now I have
tried xitami -h. I am in the usr/xitami-24d9 directory. I get the
following:
bash: xitami: command not found
