Hey guys im confused with the difference of these filesystems /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin. They all look like the same.

/sbin - contains system binaries which are required at the time of boot. Like most of scripts which start services/processes. For e.g. /sbin/init.d/net which set IP configuration and hostname for the server.
/usr/bin - user level commands/binaries
/usr/sbin - root level commands/binaries
/bin ?? Never seen any directory in /
Haha, thanks Adams, it took me nearly 8 years now to finally know whats in there ...
