Administering an operating system requires an understanding of the operating system itself and the tools available to manage it. Administrators need to create schedules for ensuring the system is secured and data are protected.

Administering an operating system requires an understanding of the operating system itself and the tools available to manage it. Administrators need to create schedules for ensuring the system is secured and data are protected.

You have been engaged to write a manual for managing a Linux environment. This task requires the following to be addressed:
•Define the necessary components and functions of a Linux operating system.
•Discuss 3 mechanisms that are available to secure a computer system, whether it is Windows or Linux.
•List 5 common Linux distributions that are popular today, and explain why they are popular (there are over 600 Linux distributions available).
•Choose 1 of the distributions, and select 1 of the available shells to research in more detail. Working with the distribution and associated shell that you selected above, review the list of shell commands. Identify and explain how to use the shell commands to accomplish the following: ◦Change the directory or folder
◦Check disk file system
◦Manage the printer
◦Stop a process
◦Partition and format a disk
◦Manage user accounts

•Identify the set of the commands that would allow you to show information about the operating system, that shows the date and time, that lists the users that are currently logged into the system, and that shows you how disk space is being used. Discuss how these would be combined together to create a script to automatically complete the tasks.
•Provide a suggestion for using certain shell commands to automatically complete another system administrative task.
•Discuss your thoughts about the challenges associated with managing and administering an environment that includes different operating systems.

Prepare a Word document of 3–4 body pages that includes a title page, introduction, and a references page that covers the above items. The document should be in APA style.

1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2.

THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION AND THE EARLY REPUBLIC

Assignment Overview The American Revolution and Independence As we saw in the Module Overview, there were numerous factors that ultimately led to revolution and independence. In this second Case assignment, you’ll be researching and writing about some of those factors. Case Assignment Write a 3 to 4-page essay identifying at least FOUR factors which led to colonial independence. In your paper, explain which events triggered discord between the colonies and the Mother Country. Be sure to do some research on your own and use other resources to analyze the thought-processes which sparked independent thinking. The best way to approach and organize the paper would be to create a title for each event and then discuss your findings. For example; for the first one you could write, “Event 1, The Seven Years War”. This would be followed by your narrative on how this war led to independence. The rest of the paper would follow this pattern. Assignment Expectations Use concepts from the background
