You're following the directions much too literally. You're supposed to replace "myname" with your username on your system. All users in Linux have a special area in the /home/ directory under their name. If your username is lfmdt for instance, your home directory would be:

/home/lfmdt/

Substitute that in the command you tried and see what happens.
