Create a shell program that will do the following (must run as root):

A) read in the last 2 lines of /etc/passwd and capture fields for:

user1 > group1

user2 > group2

B) create folders in each of the new user accounts for usr (first user) and etc (second user) . If the folders already exist, then delete them. i.e.

if /home/me/usr

then rm /home/me/usr

** hint - look up 'test' in a shell script **

C) list one file from directory and create variables for the user and the group names.

D) create a file that lists all of the files and sub-directories under the /usr directory. Place the file into first new user account created called usr/usrListing.txt

F) Change the ownership and the file permissions to match the user and group for each respective file.

Find the correct size in bytes of each of the 2 files that you created and produce an outcome like:

user1 file had xxxxxx bytes
