Answers by Question
1) loopback is local host. You can tell different subnets by looking at the /etc/netmasks file. It lists a network follwed by its netmask. You can not determine different subnets within the /etc/hosts file.

2) The last command does log the last person logged in and will show you that the su command was used to switch users, but won't log any events after the switch was made

3) b

4) I don't know. It looks like you're attempting to mount two different remote hostdirectories to one mount point on the local machine. I can't see why that would be effective and have nothing in NFS documentation about doing such a thing. I also am not familiar with roll-over for anything other than a rollover network cable.5) a, b and c

6) a

7) false - two parts, netowrk bits and host bits

8) all are correct.

Good luck on your re-test.
