    Well, it looks like some of your commands dropped off, but I use the following the most:
    ipconfig, nslookup, ping, netstat, gpupdate, and gpresult the most. Of your list that showed up: Telnet, traceroute, finger, arp, whois, ipv6, and snmp are useless in my environment. Ping is almost always useless, but is decent for internal troubleshooting. Route really doesn’t matter, as we have routers for that purpose.

    Then you have other commands like osql, net, and regsvr32 that are invaluable in certain circumstances. Netdom can also come in handy, but it’s not an often used command, just valuable when you need it (of course, it’s an admin pack tool).
