I'm currently setting up my first web server without a control panel and so far things are going pretty good! I was just wondering if anyone could direct me to somewhere that explains all of the available command options and what they do? Since I'm mostly following guides to set up specific things on the server, sometimes I run in to a command like sudo mkdir -p /var/www/ve-server{1,2}.com/{html,logs}Which I understand apart from how the -p option is modifying the command.
List of available command options?

I think you're looking for man command.Try doing man mkdir and look for what the -p switch does. You can use vim style searching here.Use man man for more info on how to use man command.
