UNIX advice needed desperately :/

Firstly I do need to state that I am turning here as a last resort. Im in my first year of a Computer Networking and technical support course, and as a first year I must complete a Introductory Unix/Linux class. I have been doing well in the course so far however I have been stumped on the final assignment (due this friday). It is confusing - as a beginner. Im hoping someone here can possibly help me out, I need to understand this for the exam next week. Any help you guys can offer is appreciated, I will post my stuff thus far in a second. Thanks in advance, setaylor5

You got a fine description for your assignment from my glimpse at it - so if you got a particular problem don't hesitate to post it but we do not do the complete work for you. Generellay when posting homework or classroom stuff, following rules in this forum apply:

Please review the rules, which you agreed to when you registered, if you have not already done so.

More-than-likely, posting homework in the main forums has resulting in a forum infraction. If you did not post homework, please explain the company you work for and the nature of the problem you are working on.
