What is this a test? When is this due? Is this homework?

What version is the latest Kernal version? Or what version of the kernal will you get with the latest Caldera release...who know...check out the Caldera Linux web site

Same for SCO Unix,DO some web research

Can't you add a user in Unix, with 'adduser' command? or is that just Linux?

Telnet-machine to machine connectivity
FTP-general file transfer from machine to machine.

Telnet can access either WAN or LAN

Any IBM Server?

Unix File System

Linux File System

Linux Har disk--hda1, hda2--or similar

hda1,hda2,hda...

\dev\cdrom

nt workstation 3.51/4.0 server 3.51/4.0

That is jsut a few, in a hurry, no they are not all correct. Perhaps you could find one of the computer deifiniton web sites that have been posted on this forum before. Such a site would answer over 70% of your questions. Is this take home?

1. My kernel is custom-tuned and hacked beyond recognition.
2. FreeBSD rocks.
3. Which UNIX?
4. Telnet, FTP = protocols, telnet = port 23, ftp = port 20+21, telnet = multipurpose, ftp = transfer files and warez
5. Yes, both.
6. Dell is just as good.
7. Which UNIX?
8. Which Distro? Umm generally, ext2.
9. /dev/hd (a-z) (1-inf...)
10. Which distro? Using which tools? I'm sure there are tons of GUI tools as well.
11. No where. Because I use FreeBSD and don't need one.
12. I don't see the point of having two CD-ROMs in a server.
13. Types of NT WS, SRV? What are they asking anyways?
14. Console or over the network?
15. Mask = Something to cover all
16. Subnetmask = To get more
17. Where everybody goes out
18. Contains conf files. It still depends on distros and applications.
19. Whatever the capacity of your HD.
20. U got me. If I have that time to find out about these, I will be in the market for any job.
21. U got me. Takes less than 60 seconds to find out.
22. Interface
23. A bunch of products made by MS.
24. If you're talking about MS Proxy, mess up your network.
25. In "Everything OK" everything includes what? Ping, lights on NIC? IP? Gateway? If really everything is OK then, there won't be any problem, will there?
26. Folders, folders, icons, icons
27. My time is better spent maintaining servers than being an electician.
28. As long as there is no outage, I'm fine. Thank you.
29. Mainly CYRIX which is pretty much dead.
30. Just another port. No biggie. Pretty much for home users and games and gizmos.
31. 7, COM what? Usually even and odd pairs. So, COM 2 and 4 is usually IRQ 3 and 5 for instance.

If these are actually the questions they've tested you with, please tell the company that I'll be happy to charge a hefty fee for better questions to measure candidate skills.
