If you have the $ sign, then more than likely you have logged in successfully. You can now type in commands.
$ pwd
$ hostname
$ uptime
$uname -a
$ ls -la
$ exit
These commands will give you different output - the last should log you out. Search this site for commands for more info and use the man command to check each command before actually doing them (so you know what they do before you execute them).
