Do the following steps as:

1.rpm –ivh ftp://server1.example.com/pub/zsh-*

2.Package will install

rpm command is used to install, update and remove the package, -i means install, -v means verbose and -h means display the hash mark.

IPP( Internet Printing Protocol), allows administrator to manage printer through browser so CUPS is called Internet Printing Protocol based on HTTP. We can Install the printer either through: system-confing-printer tool or through Browser.

1.Open the browser and Type on address: http://localhost:631CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) used the IPP protocol. CUPS use the 631 port.

When user creates the file/directory, user owner will be user itself and group owner will be the primary group of the user.

There is one Special Permission SGID bit, when you set the SGID bit on directory,When users creates the file/directory automatically owner group will be same as a parent directory.

chmod g+s /data

Verify using: ls -ld /data

You will get: drwxrws---

Do the following steps as:

rpm -ivh ftp://server1.example.com/pub/kernel-hugemem-*

2. vi /etc/grub.conf

Set the default to new kernel

default=0

Example of /etc/grub.conf

default=0

timeout=5

splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

hiddenmenu

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (2.6.9-5.ELhugemem)

root (hd0,0)

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-5.ELhugemem ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet

initrd /initrd-2.6.9-5.ELhugemem.img

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (2.6.9-5.EL)

root (hd0,0)

rpm command is used to install, update and remove the rpm package. -ivh option is install, verbose, and display the hash mark.

Do the following steps as:

useradd user1

useradd user2

useradd user3

passwd user1

passwd user2

passwd user3

We create the user using useradd command and we change the password of user using passwd command. If you want to set the blank password use: passwd -d username.

Do the following steps as:

1.Open the Browser and type the above URL.

2.Fill the form as required all information.

Do the following steps as:

1.chgrp sysadmin /data

2.Verify using ls -ld /data command. You should get like

drwxr-x--- 2 root sysadmin 4096 Mar 16 17:59 /data

chgrp command is used to change the group ownership of particular files or directory.

Another way you can use the chown command.

chown root:sysadmin /data

chown or chgrp command is used to change the ownership.

Syntax of chown: chown [-R] username:groupname file/directory

Syntax of chgrp: chgrp [-R] groupname file/directory

Whenever user creates the file or directory, the owner of that file/directory automatically will be that user and that user’s primary group name.

To change group owner ship

chgrp training /data Which set the Group Ownership to training

or

chown root.training /dataWhich set the user owner to root and group owner to training group.

Verify /data using: ls -ld /data

You will get: drwxr-xr-x 2 root training …………..

Do the following steps as:

1. Insert the CD on CD-ROM and start the system.

5. Select the NFS Image from the list

6. It will ask the IP Address, Net mask, Gateway and Name Server. Select Use

Dynamic IP Configuration: because DHCP Server will be configured in your exam lab.

7. It will ask for the NFS Server Name and Redhat Enterprise Linux Directory.

Specify the NFS Server: 192.168.0.254

Directory: /var/ftp/pub

8. After Connecting to the NFS Server Installation start in GUI. Go up to the partition screen by selecting the different Options.

12.Type mount point /data

13.Select RAID Level 0

14.Click on ok

15. Then select the MBR Options, time zone and go upto package selections.

It is another Most Important Time of installation. Due to the time limit, you should care about the installation packages. At Exam time you these packages are enough.

Do the following steps as:

1.chmod g+s /data

2.Verify using: ls -ld /data

Permission should be like:

drwxrws--- 2 root sysadmin 4096 Mar 16 18:08 /data

If SGID bit is set on directory then who every users creates the files on directory group owner automatically the owner of parent directory.

To set the SGID bit: chmod g+s directory

To Remove the SGID bit: chmod g-s directory

Do the following steps as:

1.usermod -G sysadmin john

2.usermod –G sysadmin jane

3.Verify by reading /etc/group file

Using usermod command we can make user belongs to different group. There are two types of group one primary and another is secondary. Primary group can be only one but user can belongs to more than one group as secondary.

usermod -g groupname usernameTo change the primary group of the user

usermod -G groupname usernameTo make user belongs to secondary group.

We can change the permission of file/directory either character symbol method or numeric method.

Permission:

r-Read

w-Write

x-Execute

Permission Category

u- Owner User

g- Owner Group

o- Others

Operators

+Add the Permissions

-Remove the Permissions

=Assigns the Permissions

Numeric Method:

4Read

2Write

1Execute

Total: 7, total for owner user, owner group member and for others : 777

chmod u+rwx /data

chmod g+rwx /data

chmod o-rwx /data

or

chmod 770 /data

Verify the /data : ls –ld /data

You will get drwxrwx---

Do the following steps as:

1.useradd jane

2.useradd john

useradd command is used to create the user. All user’s information stores in /etc/passwd and user;s shadow password stores in /etc/shadow.

Do the following steps as:

1.rpm -ivh ftp://server1.example.com/pub/updates/kernel-2.6.9-11.i686.rpm

2.vi /etc/grub.conf

default=1Change this value to 1

timeout=5

splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

hiddenmenu

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (2.6.9-11)

root (hd0,0)

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-11.EL ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet

initrd /initrd-2.6.9-11.EL.img

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (2.6.9-5.EL)

root (hd0,0)

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-5.EL ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet

initrd /initrd-2.6.9-5.EL.img

According question that kernel is available to anonymous user. You can directly install from the ftp server using rpm command.

When you install the kernel, it will write on /etc/grub.conf file. You can set the default kernel by changing the default value. See on the output of /etc/grub.conf file that new kernel is on first title so it’s index is 0 and previous kernel’s index is 1.

Do the following steps as:

1.Create a partition having size 5 GB and change the syste id ‘8e’.

2.use partprobe command

3.pvcreate /dev/hda9Suppose your partition number is hda9.

4.vgextend test0 /dev/hda9vgextend command add the physical disk on volume group.

5.lvextend –L+5120M /dev/test0/lvtestvolume

6.verify using lvdisplay /dev/test0/lvtestvolume.

By default user1 can remove user2’s files due to directory permission to group member. We can prevent of deleting files from others users using Sticky Bits.

chmod o+t /data

Verify /data: ls -ld /data

You will get: drwxrwx—T

Do the following steps as:

1.chmod 770 /storage

2.Verify using : ls –ld /storage

Preview should be like:

drwxrwx--- 2 root sysusers 4096 Mar 16 18:08 /storage

To change the permission on directory we use the chmod command. According to the question that only the owner user (root) and group member (sysusers) can fully access the directory so: chmod 770 /archive

Do the following steps as:

useradd eric

passwd eric

vi /etc/passwd

eric:x:505:505::/home/eric:/sbin/nologin

Which shell or program should start at login time is specified in /etc/passwd file. By default Redhat Enterprise Linux assigns the /bin/bash shell to the users. To deny the interactive login, you should write /sbin/nologin or /bin/false instead of login shell.

4. It will ask you for the installation method.

5. Select the HTTP from the list

6. It will ask the IP Address, Net mask, Gateway and Name Server. Select Use

Dynamic IP Configuration: because DHCP Server will be configured in your exam lab.

7. It will ask for the Web site name and Redhat Enterprise Linux Directory.

Specify the HTTP Server: 192.168.0.254

Directory: rhel5Because Default Directory for http is /var/www/html

8. After Connecting to the HTTP Server Installation start. Go upto the partition screen by selecting the different Options.

9. Create the partition According to the Question because Size and what-what partition should you create at installation time is specified in your question

10. Then select the MBR Options, time zone and go upto package selections.
