Some UNIX Questions!

1. Someone pings a server from another location and gets a different result than if you ping the same server onsite. What is going on?

2. You know the reason the server won't boot is because of ODS, but the root partition isn't on ODS. How do you go about fixing it?

3. How would you truncate a log file that is growing too large if you don't have space to compress it or to move it somewhere else? How would you do it "hot"?

4. When the key is in the lock position on a Sun Enterprise server, can you do a Stop-A? Explain.

5. What does "boot -a" do?

6. What is uadmin and what does it do?

7. What does "ypwhich servername" do? Why would you use it?

8. If you have multiple ethernet interfaces, how do you keep it from routing between them?

9. Can you add HDD's to a Sun server and not have to do a reconfiguration reboot? Explain.

10. You can receive e-mail, but can't send any. What is wrong?

11. If you have forgotten the root password for a server, how do you get back in?

12. What makes NIS+ more secure than NIS?

13. After displaying the banner page, it says: Clock TOD does not match TOD on any IO boards. How do you go about fixing this and what is it telling you?

14. What are the differences between Solaris 2.6 and lower and 7 and higher?

15. How can you search for commands at the boot prompt if you only know part of the command?

16. What are the two settings you can change to make a system boot faster?

17. What are the differences between Sun OS and Solaris?

18. What do soft partitions buy you with Solaris Volume Manager?

19. How can you set EEPROM settings from Solaris?
