Q1. CORRECT TEXT

There are mixed lots of System running on Linux and Windows OS. Some users are working on Windows Operating System. Your printer is connected on linux server. You want to share the printer-using samba so that users working on windows also can print. Configure the samba serve to share printer.

Answer and Explanation:

1. vi /etc/samba/smb.conf

[global]

netbios name=station?

workgroup=linuxgroup

security=share

printcap name=/etc/printcap

load printers=yes

printing=cups

[printers]

path=/var/spool/samba

browsable=yes

printable=yes

guest ok=no

writable=no

Samba servers helps to share the data between linux and windows. Configuration file is /etc/samba/smb.conf. There are some pre-defined section, i. global à use to define the global options, ii. Printers à use to share the printers, iii. homes à use to share the user's home directory.

/etc/printcap file contains all installed printers name. Printing is print system used on server.

Q2. CORRECT TEXT

One NIS Domain named rhce.com is configured in your lab, server is 192.168.0.254. rhce100, rhce200,rhce300 user are created on domain server.

Make your system as a member of rhce.com domain. Make sure that when nis user login in your system home directory should get by them. Home directory is separately shared on server eg /home/stationx/ where x is you station number.

Answer and Explanation:

1. use the authconfig or system-config-authentication

2. Select the [*] USE NIS

3. Type the NIS Domain: rhce.com

4. Type Server 192.168.0.254 then click on next and ok

5. You will get a ok message.

6. vi /etc/auto.master and write at the end of file

/home/stationx /etc/auto.home --timeout=60

7. vi /etc/auto.home and write

* -rw,soft,intr 192.168.0.254:/home/stationx/&

Note: please specify your station number in the place of x.

8. Service autofs restart

9. Login as the rhce1 or rhce2 or rhce3 on another terminal will be Success.

According to question, rhce.com domain is already configured. We have to make a client of rhce.com domain and automatically mount the home directory on every client. To make a member of domain, we use the autheconfig or system-config-authentication command. There are lots of authentication server i.e NIS, LDAB, SMB etc. NIS is a RPC related Services, no need to configure the DNS, we should specify the NIS server address.

Here Automount feature is available. When user tried to login, home directory will automatically mount. The automount service reads the configuration from /etc/auto.master file.

On /etc/auto.master file we specified the mount point the configuration file for mount point.

Q3. CORRECT TEXT

There are two different networks, 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24. Your System is in 192.168.0.0/24 Network. One RHEL 4 Installed System is going to use as a Router. All required configuration is already done on Linux Server. Where 192.168.0.254 and 192.168.1.254 IP Address are assigned on that Server. How will make successfully ping to 192.168.1.0/24 Network's Host?

Answer and Explanation:

1. vi /etc/sysconfig/network

GATEWAY=192.168.0.254

OR

vi /etc/sysconf/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

DEVICE=eth0

BOOTPROTO=static

ONBOOT=yes

IPADDR=192.168.0.?

NETMASK=255.255.255.0

GATEWAY=192.168.0.254

2. service network restart

Q4. CORRECT TEXT

There is a HTTP server 192.168.0.254 and all required packages are dumped in /var/www/html/rhel5 of that server. Install the Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 by creating following partitions:

/ 1000

/boot 200

/home 1000

/var 1000

/usr 4000

swap 2X256 (RAM SIZE)

Answer and Explanation:

Note: Examiner will provide you the Installation startup CD. And here mentioned size may vary see on the exam paper.

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

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.

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

Q8. CORRECT TEXT

Your Machine Name is stationx.example.com, (x is your host IP address) which is already resolved. Set the default page for stationx.example.com by downloading www.html file from ftp.server1.example.com.

Answer and Explanation:ftp ftp.server1.example.comDownload the www.html

Check the SELinux context of index page , should like this:

-rw-r--r-- root root system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t /var/www/html/index.html

If SELinux Context is mismatched, use the restorecon -R /var command

move the downloaded file into /var/www/htmlRename the file into index.htmlCheck using links

http://stationx.example.com

/var/www/html is the default directory for httpd service. Index.html is the default directory index. To set the default page without configuring virtualhost copy the file as a index.html in /var/www/html.
