What admin commands do you use?

Is there a similar command for Cisco?

I've got into the habit of writing out everything I want in notepad and just copy and pasting it in when I'm happy.

Not in standard IOS, the IOS-XR on the high end boxes (12000 series etc) has a variant of the candidate configurations that Juniper use but it's not as good. It's one of the many things which makes JUNOS such a joy to work with, it's also nice that commands aren't made live the moment you type them, so you can write a config update and then schedule a commit for out of hours (if you're feeling brave).

The other side of course is the godsend rollback command, write out 30 odd lines of changes, then commit them, if it breaks then type 'rollback 1' and magically it's all undone. There's a reason I love working with Juniper gear...

http://www.mremote.org < much better supports all the main connection types (RDP, VNC, SSH, HTTP etc...) we used it for about a year then bought its replacement visionapp which I have to say isn't much better but has SQL backend database so you can easily share connections.

We use this for all our servers, iLO / Drac, SSH etc... for all our admins now. To have access to everything you need in one place is bloody fantastic not to mention you can integrate outside applications.

http://remotedesktopmanager.com/ for us - centralises RDP, TeamViewer, HTTPS (iLO, firewalls, routers), SSH etc etc
 
Everyone seems to use the ds commands but no one uses dsmod?

Currently doing a lot of Powershell Scripting at the moment - something I need to learn really but I've used nigh on all of the commands above including the linux based commands for our ESX hosts.
