A)Distributed File System
B)Network Information Service
C)Network Teller Service
D)Network File System

Accepted Answer

The Network Information Service (NIS) is a method used on UNIX and Linux systems to share passwords and group file access within a computer network. The other options are different network services used for different purposes, such as managing distributed file systems (A), providing teller services for banking applications (C), and sharing files between different computer systems (D).

Question 6

The ____ program allows for a Linux system to participate in a Windows network by sharing files and printers using SMB (Server Message Blocks)and CIFS (Common Internet File System)protocols.
A)Wimba
B)Samba
C)Winbind
D)WINE

Accepted Answer

Samba is a free and open-source implementation of SMB and CIFS protocols that allows Linux systems to participate in Windows networks by sharing files and printers. Wimba is a collaborative learning software, Winbind is used to integrate Linux systems into a Windows Active Directory domain, and WINE is a compatibility layer to run Windows applications on Linux. Therefore, the correct choice is B.

Question 7

NIS domains are created to allow for servers and clients to communicate and the servers and clients can be in different domains.

Accepted Answer

The answer of NIS domains are created to allow for...

Question 8

The ____ operating system is a free UNIX-like operating system that was created by Linus Torvalds.
A)BSD
B)GNU
C)System V
D)Linux

Accepted Answer

Linux is the free UNIX-like operating system that was created by Linus Torvalds, making it the correct choice. BSD (A) and System V (C) are other UNIX-based operating systems, while GNU (B) is a collection of free software programs created by Richard Stallman.

Question 9

Two of the most popular versions of UNIX to come out of the education market were created at the University of California at Berkeley: ____.
A)Berkeley Standard Distribution (BSD)version and System V
B)Linux and System V
C)Berkeley Standard Distribution (BSD)version and Linux
D)System V and GNU

Accepted Answer

The University of California at Berkeley is known for developing the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD), a version of UNIX. System V is another UNIX version, but it was developed by AT&T's Bell Labs, not Berkeley. Therefore, the correct answer is the Berkeley Standard Distribution (BSD) version and System V, as both are popular versions of UNIX, but only BSD was created at Berkeley.

Question 10

All of the versions of the Linux operating system are available for free.

Accepted Answer

While many versions (distributions) of Linux are available for free, some specialized versions, particularly those tailored for enterprise use, may require a purchase or subscription for access to support and additional features.

Question 11

The ____ is the method used by UNIX and Linux systems to share disk resources.
A)Network Information Service
B)Distributed File System
C)Network File System
D)File Information Service

Accepted Answer

The Network File System (NFS) is the standard protocol used by UNIX and Linux systems to share disk resources over a network. It allows a remote client to access files over a network as if they were stored locally. The other options listed, NIS (A), DFS (B), and FIS (D) are not typically used for sharing disk resources in UNIX and Linux systems.

Question 12

The ____ operating system has been available since the 1970 and was originally developed by Ken Thompson,Dennis Ritchie,and others at AT&T labs.
A)Linux
B)BSD
C)UNIX
D)GNU

Accepted Answer

The UNIX operating system was first developed in the 1970s by Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, and others at AT&T labs. While Linux and BSD are also derived from UNIX, UNIX was the original operating system. GNU, on the other hand, is a collection of free software designed to work with various operating systems, including UNIX and Linux.

Question 13

____ in a Linux environment plays an important role in accessing data,whether stored locally or out in the network.
A)Authentication
B)Encryption
C)Tunneling
D)Standards

Accepted Answer

Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user or device before granting access to resources. In a Linux environment, authentication is crucial for accessing data, whether it is stored locally or out in the network. Without proper authentication, unauthorized users could potentially gain access to sensitive data and compromise the system's security. Encryption, tunneling, and standards all have roles in securing data, but authentication is the most important factor when it comes to accessing data in a Linux environment.

Question 14

The software for Red Hat Fedora Linux is distributed free of charge.

Accepted Answer

Red Hat Fedora Linux is distributed under the GNU General Public License which allows for free distribution and use, meaning the software is available for free.

Question 15

For security purposes,it is necessary for the system administrator to protect the ____________________ account.

Accepted Answer

The answer of For security purposes,it is necessary for the...

Question 16

A Linux client can participate in the Windows environment by using the ____ program.
A)CIFSCLI
B)SMBFETCH
C)WINCLIENT
D)SMBCLIENT

Accepted Answer

SMB stands for Server Message Block, which is the protocol used for file sharing in Windows environments. Therefore, SMBCLIENT is the best choice as it allows a Linux client to access shared files and resources on a Windows system.

Question 17

A Linux computer can import and export NFS disks at the same time.

Accepted Answer

A Linux computer can both import and export NFS disks simultaneously. NFS (Network File System) is a protocol for sharing files and directories over a network, and it allows multiple computers to access the same file system remotely. A Linux computer can act as both an NFS client and an NFS server, allowing it to both import NFS disks from other servers and export its own NFS disks to other clients.

Question 18

The Linux operating system is based on the open-source software model and is distributed freely under the ____________________ GPL.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The Linux operating system is based on...
