directory. Note from the tutor : To grade this lab I will login to your virtual machine and check
that these things have been done. No need to take screen captures or
sent me copy and paste of the output etc. Just be sure to leave in place
any files, users, configurations, etc. created while doing your lab. I
will check for these things in your VM when I grade the labs at the end
of the course. If there are any problems please send me a message or
join one of my office hours sessions. Have fun!
