Assignment title: Information
This assignment consists of 3 questions each of equal value. They consist of common tasks required of a system administrator—tasks I have had to do at some time in the past. Clear Layout It is vitally important that your assignment is clearly laid out with questions and parts of questions clearly defined. It must be a straight forward matter for the examiner to determine that you have completed each exercise satisfactorily. We want quality not quantity. Poorly organised submissions will be rejected or receive a poor mark. A text file or PDF/A document typeset using vanilla LATEX are preferred over a document produced by a word-processor. If you must use Microsoft Word please export your document as PDF/A1 not PDF. Command Output When answering these questions you will have to run commands under Linux—whenever a command is run you will need to: a. explain in your own words the purpose of the command in the context of the assignment question. (Please do not just copy the "Description" section from the man page!)
