- Submitting a text entry box, a media recording, or a file upload
Create a linux directory tree The tree should have the following structure:
- find a linux comics (cartoons, memes, etc) on the web, download the file using the file's direct URL with wget, then move the downloaded file to the three_files directory. - place a modified copy of the /etc/services system configuration file. In the modified version the services should be ordered alphabetically and each line should be numbered. - create a file named "command-history". In this file specify the full command line input, including your prompt, you used a) to download the linux cartoon b) to create the tarball As the final step of the homework, copy the tarball to the homework 2 submission directory on aurora (/projects/hep/fs10/mnxb01/HW2-submission). Set the permissions of the file so that you as the owner can only write (not read or execute) and the owner group can only read (not write and execute) the tarball file., everybody else should have no access to the file (neither read, write or execute). Furthermore, make sure you give a unique recognizable name to your tarball (e.g. your_name_homework2.tgz)
As a submission in Canvas, please specify the full path of the tarball of your homework on aurora.
Strong recommendation: Please do check that your tarball contains the required files (e.g. run the tar -xvf my-tarball) . In previous years many students created "something" then never actually checked the content. |
