PUTTY:

Attach only .txt files and make sure to copy/paste the questions, along with the answers. 10 pts will be deducted if you do not include the questions.

Make sure that you do it interactively with the system creating a log file to show your work.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Login to UNIX and do the following steps interactively (meaning do your homework while connected to our unix system so you can actually do the commands while answering the questions). Do not try to guess the answers, follow the steps while logged in the unix system.

Write in your answers, the command lines you use in each step. You may want to copy the answers from the body of your putty session. Note that putty has an option to log all your work in a text file. Note that each step may depend on the previous and there may be more than one way to do some of the steps (one answer is enough). Include the questions with your answers.

BTW.. You can use putty and open more than one connection to, so you can have two sessions going at the same time.

Always include the assignment questions, otherwise 10 pts will be deducted. Also, attach ONLY .txt files, NO Word or PDF files.
