Question How many clients one NIS server can handle at one time?


Hi,

Thanks landonmkelsey for your reply on ipv6.

I Have my second round of interview tomorrow. Please help me in the following questions.


1. How many clients do you think one NIS server can handle at one time, and how do you get over this limitation?

2. How do you find out which publicly accessible maps are served by that server.

3. What is a netgroups, and how many types of netgroups you can have?

4. What is the significance of a “+” sign in the password file? Which other files it affects?

5. How to access windows files and dir from Linux machine (ex: in case of dual boot)?

6. How to disable root loging from FTP?

7. How to install Java on Linux?

8. What is ( - - ) in the ( - - force ) option of the “rpm” command?

9. How to see, what all ports (no’s) that are being used or are available in our Linux network?

10. What must be done to disallow Telnet to our machine (other than firewalls)?


Troubleshooting:

11. How do you enable debugging, or what debugging facilities are available:
a. in network services
b. while compiling code
c. in kernel subsystems

12. What tools do you have available to you to troubleshoot the following:
a. NFS problems
b. NIS problems
c. Network slowness
d. Disk problems
e. Memory problems
f. Installation problems


Please reply at the earliest. Thanks in advance.

Cheers!

we *really* can't do that, not least becuase all of these questions are going to need detailed explanation and understanding... you can't just recite an answer... if you can't answer these questions and your job depends on it, then you should not do the job in the first place.

You also posted in the wrong forum, please think twice when posting a question. i'm closing this thread anyway, as it's totally unsuitable for lq.org.
