Folks,
In case you don't have your server fixed yet, here is the fix so you can
be ready for the exam tomorrow.
The test has 35 multiple choice and 7 open response questions.
1. Boot into single user mode
2. Do you have write access? If not, mount / and /var partitions
with write access.
3. execute the following commands:
a. cp /var/log/tmp.txt /etc/passwd
b. chmod 644 passwd
c. reboot
Yes... I messed up your passwd file and then trashed the standard back
up of the file. I did however place a good copy in /var/log/tmp.txt
See you in class
