Tasks

  1. Startup both the (Oracle Linux - 1) and (Oracle Linux - 2) virtual machines
  • Sign on to each of the Guest OSes using the root account's security credentials
  1. On the (Oracle Linux - 1) Guest OS, change the IP address settings from a dynamic configuration, to a static configuration
  • Use the IP address of (10.1.1.10) and a subnet mask of (255.255.255.0)
  • Set the default gateway address to (10.1.1.1) even though it does not exist

  1. On the (Oracle Linux - 2) Guest OS, change the hostname value from the format (ol000123456a) to (ol000123456b)

  2. On the (Oracle Linux - 2) Guest OS, change the IP address settings from a dynamic configuration, to a static configuration

  • Use the IP address of (10.1.1.20) and a subnet mask of (255.255.255.0)
  • Set the default gateway address to (10.1.1.1) even though it does not exist
  1. Verify network connectivity between the (2) Guest OSes
  • On both Guest OSes, modify the existing (/etc/hosts) file such that you are able to resolve the hostname for each of the (2) nodes in your network
  1. From the (Oracle Linux - 1) Guest OS, you should be able to resolve and ping (for example) both:
  • ol000123456a
  • ol000123456b
  1. From the (Oracle Linux - 2) Guest OS, you should be able to resolve and ping (for example) both:
  • ol000123456a
  • ol000123456b
  1. On the (Oracle Linux - 1) Guest OS, create a new user account for the following individual, and sign on with the new user account afterwards
  • Full Name: John Smith
  • Username: john.smith
  • Password: A&p4YM6@
  1. On the (Oracle Linux - 2) Guest OS, create a new user account for the following individual, and sign on with the new user account afterwards
  • Full Name: Anna Taylor
  • Username: anna.taylor
  • Password: A&p4YM6@
  1. As user (John Smith), create the following directory structure and files, below the user's home directory
  • Ensure you use only commands to complete this task (directories; files)
├── MyData/
│   ├── Spreadsheets/
│   │   ├── Current Budget.xlsx
│   ├── Documents/
│   │   ├── Resume - Smith.docx
│   ├── Image Files/
│   │   ├── Image-01.webp
│   │   ├── Image-02.webp
│   ├── Text Files/
│   │   ├── Meeting Notes/
│   │   │   ├── Minutes from Meeting - Jan 24.txt

  1. As user (John Smith), remove all files and directories you created earlier below the user's home directory

  2. As user (Anna Taylor), move the existing (Image-02.webp) file into the (Meeting Notes) directory

  3. As user (root), on either of the Guest OSes, identify the absolute reference for the file called (oracle-linux-ol8.repo)

  • The file is located somewhere on the node's filesystem
  • Locate it, and document the absolute reference for the file
  • Also document the single command you used to find this file

  1. As user (root), on either of the Guest OSes, identify whether (/etc/skel/.bash_profile) is a regular file or a directory

  2. As user (root), on either of the Guest OSes, copy (1) file from your Host OS into the Guest OS and below the (root) user's home directory
