Thanks to one of the SysAdmin Valley reads who alerted me to a mistype in one of the blogs. When you are typing in Linux commands into WordPress and it uses a double hyphen, you need to change the formatting to “Preformatted” for the text. The reason it, WordPress converts the double hyphens into a single hyphen. See the following example.
With double hyphens & normal formatting:
rpm –version
With double hyphens & preformatted formatting:
rpm --version
