(Choose all that apply.) a. chmod u+x-r,g+r-x,o+w file1 b. chmod u=w,g=rw,o=rx file1 c. chmod u-r-w,g+r-w,o+r-x file1 d. chmod u=x,g=r,o=wx file1 e. chmod u+w,g+r-w,o+r-x file1 f. chmod u=rw,g=r,o=r file1

hard link

A file joined to other files on the same filesystem that shares the same inode.

data blocks

A filesystem allocation unit in which the data that makes up the contents of the file as well as the filename are stored.

permissions

A list that identifies who can access a file or folder and their level of access.

symbolic link

A pointer to another file on the same or another filesystem; commonly referred to as a shortcut.

umask

A special variable used to alter the permissions on all new files and directories by taking away select default file and directory permissions.

Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS)

A standard outlining the location of set files and directories on a Linux system.

False ls -F indicates symbolic links by appending @ symbol (at the end) ls -li file type character (before permissions) is l Ex: file1@ 19926 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Apr 27 19:05 file1 -> file0

A symbolic link is also known as a soft link and is depicted by an @ symbol appearing at the beginning of the filename when viewed using the ls -l command. True or False?

recursive

A term referring to itself and its own contents; a recursive search includes all subdirectories in a directory and their contents.

PATH variable

A variable that stores a list of directories that will be searched in order when commands are executed without an absolute or relative pathname.

c. - - -r--rw unmask = removes representation of that permission mode from permissions directory default permissions rwxrwxrwx rwx = 7 -wx = 3 --x = 1

After typing the command umask 731, the permissions on all subsequently created files and directories will be affected. In this case, what will be the permissions on all new files? a. rw-rw-rw b. rwxrw-r-- c. - - -r--rw d.- - --wx--x

After typing the ls -F command, you see the following line in the output: -rw-r-xr- - 1 user1 root 0 Apr 29 15:40 file1 What does this mean? a. User1 has read and write permission, members of the root group have read and execute permissions, and all others have read permissions to the file. b. Members of the root group have read and write permissions, user1 has read and execute permission, and all others have read permissions to the file. c. All users have read and write permissions, members of the root group have read and execute permissions, and user1 has read permission to the file. d. User1 has read and write permission, all others have read and execute permissions, and members of the root group have read permissions to the file.

b. two

Given the following output from the ls command, how many files are linked with file1? drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Apr 8 07:12 Desktop -rw-r--r-- 3 root root 282 Apr 29 22:06 file1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 282 Apr 29 22:06 file2 -rw-r--r-- 4 root root 282 Apr 29 22:06 file3 -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 282 Apr 29 22:06 file4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 282 Apr 29 22:06 file5 -rw-r--r-- 1 user1 sys 282 Apr 29 22:06 file6 a. one b. two c. three d. four

True

Hard links need to reside on the same filesystem as the target, whereas symbolic links need not be on the same filesystem as the target. True or False?

False not even a root user can modify a file that has immutable attribute set

Only the root user can modify a a file that has the immutable attribute set.

inode table

The collection of inodes for all files and directories on a filesystem.

b. --wx--xrwx 1 user1 root 0 Apr 29 15:40 file1

The command chmod 317 file1 would produce which of the following lines in the ls command? a. --w-r--rwx 1 user1 root 0 Apr 29 15:40 file1 b. --wx--xrwx 1 user1 root 0 Apr 29 15:40 file1 c. -rwxrw-r-x 1 user1 root 0 Apr 29 15:40 file1 d. --w-rw-r-e 1 user1 root 0 Apr 29 15:40 file1

False ineffective special permissions are capitalized when set w/o execute permissions. Ex: rwS = SUID rwS = SGID rwT = Sticky Bit

There is no real difference between the "S" and "s" special permissions when displayed using the ls -l command. One just means it is on a file and the other that it is on a directory. True or False?
