How to move or copy a file in BSD.
Posted by Mike C. on 11 September 2009 11:59 PM
First you need to find the file you would like to move and the location you would like it to move to. You will type the following:

mv FILEYOUWANTMOVED LOCATIONYOUWANTITMOVEDTO

So to play out the example lets mv httpd.conf to /etc.

# mv /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf /etc/

If you wanted to copy it (keeping the original in place) you would type:

# cp /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf /etc/
