Practice Questions
| Question 1 |
Which of the following naming services requires the data to be configured manually on every system on which it is used?
|
| A1: | Answer d is correct. NIS requires the data to be configured manually on every system on which it is used. All the other naming services provide a means to update one master database and propagate changes to every system that needs them. Therefore, answers a, b, and c are incorrect. Although using /etc files is simple and quick for a few systems, using NIS, NIS+, or DNS reduces maintenance for many systems. |
| Question 2 | Enter the name of a method to restrict access to NIS+ resources based on the user's credentials. |
| A2: | The correct answer is authentication. |
