Student ID
You can put any integer number here to generate different exercises for practice. However you must submit the activity associated with your ID number to D2L in order to receive credit for the activity.
SSH Without Password
- Take a screenshot of these instructions (including your student number) and the file/folder structure below. If you cannot get everything into the screenshot it is okay, just take your ID number and whatever fits on the screen.
- Create a user account for the user 'X'. If a user already exists with this name on your system, you may use this account.
- Configure passwordless login for the user 'X' so that you can ssh from sit to this account without being asked for a password. Take a screenshot showing that you can ssh from sit to your vm without getting asked for the password.
- Configure passwordless login so that you can connect to sit from the user 'X' without being asked for a password. Take a screenshot showing that you can ssh from your vm to sit without getting asked for the password.
Submission of Work
The daily exercises in this course are based on proving that you have successfully completed the tasks. This is done by determining which command(s) are necessary and collecting a screenshot of the completed work.
For each day, you will submit a PDF file to D2L by 11:30pm. The format MUST BE PDF! Submitting work in any other format will result in a zero. The dropbox closes promptly at 11:30pm and no late submissions by email will be accepted. No special arrangements will be made for any reason. A small number of daily activities will excused at the end of the semester to handle various problems that might arise.
Questions/parts must be clearly labelled. Work submitted without labels will not receive full marks.
