Two things happened with Leopard:

1) Leopard is now Unix, not Unix-like, which is why (as one example)
ps -auxww doesn't work but ps auxww works

2) NetInfo is dead as a doornail.

I'd guess that one or the other of those two things will be the root
(HA!) cause of any commandline problems you have.
