2. Select device type, a window will appear choose Ethernet connection and click forward.

3. If your NIC is listed then select it and click forward if not then choose other Ethernet card and click forward.

4. Select adapter, a window will appear select your card from adapter drop-down list and choose device name from device drop down list for first time choose eth0.

5. Click forward it will open configure network setting window, choose whether you want to use DHCP to obtain your IP address automatically or whether you want to enter a static IP address.

6. Click forward you will see the listing of your selected information, if you want to make changes, click back to return to the desired window.

7. If you are satisfied with your choices click apply to create the device.

8. After that choose file-->save from the menu to save changes.

Explain the tools used to monitor system security.

12.Explain the tools used to monitor system security. Ans. 1. People who, for purpose of larceny or to amuse themselves, like to break into computers, they are called ‘crackers’. 2. If there is a vulnerability in a system they will find it and use it against you. 3. Preventing use of your machine for nefarious purpose and guarding against intrusion are, in the end, your responsibility alone. 4. Red hat equips you with tools to detect and deal with unauthorised access of many kinds. 5. You need to configure those tools and understand how to sense the warning they provide. 6. Fortunately Linux is development community is quick to find potential exploits and to create ways of slamming the doors before crackers can enter in your system. 7. Red hat is careful enough to making available new, patched version in which potential exploits have been found. 8. You should make sure to download and install the repaired package. 9. This line of defence...

Explain the file systems supported by Linux.

21.Explain the file systems supported by Linux. Ans. 1. Linux can read/write to several file system that originated with other operating system much different from Linux. 2. One reason that Linux supports so many file systems is the design of its virtual file system (VFS) layer, its provides a fairly universal forms of file support, file systems supported by Linux are as follows: 3. ext3: • Ext3 stands for third extended file system. • Starting from Linux Kernel 2.4.15 ext3 was available. • The main benefit of ext3 is that it allows journaling. • Journaling has a dedicated area in the file system, where all the changes are tracked. • When the system crashes, the possibility of file system corruption is less because of journaling. (If no journaling, then fsck command (file system consistency check) is used to check for the corrupted file and to repair that file). • ext3 keeps a record of uncommitted file transactions and applies only those transactions when the sy...

Explain the boot process in Linux.

13.Explain the boot process in Linux. Ans. 1. When we turn on our PC, it runs a program called “Basic input/output System” (BIOS). 2. BIOS is the only way to communicate with the system components until the operating system is up and running and able to take over the system management functions. 3. BIOS is installed on Read only memory (ROM) chip physically attached to system board. 4. The ROM type of chip is usually referred as to as an EEPROM chip, meaning it’s not writeable by user. 5. After the BIOS loads, it performs some diagnostics on the hardware, checks the installed components to be sure they are functioning and checks the system RAM (Random access memory). 6. Next the BIOS tries to find system drives from which it can load the boot program to begin the process of starting the operating system/kernel. 7. We can specify the search order for drives by changing the setting in the system BIOS configuration. 8. Usually the first hard drive...
