Pass the RedHat RHCT RH202 Questions and answers with ExamsMirror

You are giving RHCT Exam and in your Exam paper there is a question written, make successfully ping to 192.168.0.254.

Answer and Explanation:

In Network problem think to check:

IP Configuration: use ifconfig command either IP is assigned to interface or not?

Default Gateway is set or not?

Hostname is set or not?

Routing problem is there?

Device Driver Module is loaded or not?

Device is activated or not?

Check In this way:

use ifconfig command and identify which IP is assigned or not.

cat /etc/sysconfig/networkWhat, What is written here. Actually here are these parameters.

NETWORKING=yes or no

GATEWAY=x.x.x.x

HOSTNAME=?

NISDOMAIN=?

Correct the file

Use netconfig command

Either Select Automatically from DHCP or assign the static IP

Use service network restart or start command

Now try to ping it will work.

There are more then 400 Computers in your Office. You are appointed as a System Administrator. But you don’t have Router. So, you are going to use your One Linux Server as a Router. How will you enable IP packets forward?

Answer and Explanation:

1. /proc is the virtual filesystem, we use /proc to modify the kernel parameters at running time.

# echo “1” >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

2. /etc/sysctl.conf  when System Reboot on next time, /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit scripts reads the file /etc/sysctl.conf. To enable the IP forwarding on next reboot also you need to set the parameter.

net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

Here 0 means disable, 1 means enable.

There is a server having 172.24.254.254 and 172.25.254.254. Your System lies on 172.24.0.0/16. Make successfully ping to 172.25.254.254 by Assigning following IP:

172.24.0.x Where x is your station number.

Answer and Explanation:

Use netconfig command

Enter the IP Address as given station number by your examiner: example: 172.24.0.1

Enter Subnet Mask

Enter Default Gateway and primary name server

press on ok

ifdown eth0

ifup eth0

verify using ifconfig

In the lab server is playing the role of router, IP forwarding is enabled. Just set the Correct IP and gateway, you can ping to 172.25.254.254.

Your System is configured in 192.168.0.0/24 Network and your nameserver is 192.168.0.254. Make successfully resolve to server1.example.com.

Answer and Explanation:

Very Easy question, nameserver is specified in question,

1.vi /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 192.168.0.254

2.host server1.example.com

There is one partition /dev/hda14 mounted on /data. The owner of /data is root user and root group. And Permission is full to owner user, read and execute to group member and no permission to others. Now you should give the full permission to user user1 without changing pervious permission.

Answer and Explanation:

We know that every files/directories are owned by certain user and group. And Permissions are defines to owner user, owner group and other.

-rwxr-x--- Full permission to owner user, read and write to owner group and no permission to others.

According to question: We should give the full permission to user user1 without changing the previous permission.

ACL (Access Control List), in ext3 file system we can give permission to certain user and certain group without changing previous permission. But that partition should mount using acl option. Follow the steps

vi /etc/fstab

/dev/hda14/dataext3defaults,acl0 1

Either Reboot or use: mount –o remount /data

setfacl –m u:user1:rwx /data

Verify using: getfacl /data

You Completely Install the Redhat Enterprise Linux ES 4 on your System. While start the system, it’s giving error to load X window System. How will you fix that problem and make boot successfully run X Window System.

Answer and Explanation:

Think while Problems occurred on booting System on Runlevel 5 (X Window).

/tmp is full or not

Quota is already reached

Video card or resolution or monitor is misconfigured.

xfs service is running or not.

Do These:

1.df –h /tmp  /tmp is full remove the unnecessary file

quota usernameif quota is already reached remove unnecessary file from home directory.

Boot the System in runlevel 3.you can pass the Kernel Argument from boot loader.

Use command: system-config-displayIt will display a dialog to configure the monitor, Video card, resolution etc.

Set the Default Runlevel 5 in /etc/inittab

id:5:initdefault:

6.Reboot the System you will get the GUI login Screen.

Your system is giving error while booting on Runlevel 5 . Make successfully boot your system in runlevel 5.

Answer and Explanation: While you load the X Window System, you will get the problem. To troubleshoot follow the following steps:

1.Check the /tmp is full ?

2.Check your quota, hard limit is already crossed ?

3.Check xfs service is running ?

4.Configure the Video card, Resolution, monitor type using: system-config-display (Most Probably in Redhat exam)

5.Edit the /etc/inittab to set default runlevel 5.

id:5:initdefault:

Change the root Password to redtophat

Answer and Explanation:

Boot the system in Single user mode

Use the passwd command

Add a new logical partition having size 100MB and create the /data which will be the mount point for the new partition.

Answer and Explanation:

Use fdisk /dev/hdaTo create new partition.

Type nFor New partitions

It will ask for Logical or Primary Partitions. Press l for logical.

It will ask for the Starting Cylinder: Use the Default by pressing Enter Key.

Type the Size: +100MYou can Specify either Last cylinder of Size here.

Press P to verify the partitions lists and remember the partitions name.

Press w to write on partitions table.

Either Reboot or use partprobe command.

Use mkfs –t ext3 /dev/hda?

Or

mke2fs –j /dev/hda? To create ext3 filesystem.

vi /etc/fstab

Write:

/dev/hda?/dataext3defaults0 0

Verify by mounting on current Sessions also:

mount /dev/hda? /data

Some users home directory is shared from your system. Using showmount –e localhost command, the shared directory is not shown. Make access the shared users home directory.

Answer and Explanation:

1.Verify the File whether Shared or not ? : cat /etc/exports

2.Start the nfs service: service nfs start

3.Start the portmap service: service portmap start

4.Make automatically start the nfs service on next reboot: chkconfig nfs on

5.Make automatically start the portmap service on next reboot: chkconfig portmap on

6.Verify either sharing or not: showmount –e localhost

7.Check that default firewall is running on system ? if running flush the iptables using iptables –F and stop the iptables service.
