Hi Anthony! I currently run my node on Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS, headless (no
GUI). Looking at the install script you used, please try this from a
terminal window...

cd /
sudo ls -al

You should see an entry like this...

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jan 19 2024 spider -> /home/sysop/spider

There is no "sysop" command created. To access the console you have to use
the command "dx".
