XK0-005 Exam Dumps - CompTIA Linux+ Questions and Answers

The -i option stands for 'interactive' and it prompts before overwriting any existing files. This ensures that no existing files are accidentally overwritten during the move operation.

Comprehensive and Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation:

PasswordAuthentication no ensures that SSH logins are only allowed using key-based authentication, preventing password-based access.

PermitRootLogin prohibit-password prevents root login via passwords but does not enforce key-based authentication for all users.

AuthorizedKeysCommandUser root is related to custom key authentication scripts and is not necessary for enforcing key-based authentication.

AuthorizedKeysCommand sudo is not a valid SSH configuration option.

"modify the /etc/fstab text file to automatically mount the new partition by opening it in an editor and adding the following line:

/dev/ xxx 1 /data ext4 defaults 1 2

where xxx is the device name of the storage device"

To configure a new filesystem that needs the capability to be mounted persistently across reboots, two commands are needed: mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc1 and echo “/dev/sdc1 /data ext4 defaults 0 0” >> /etc/fstab. The first command creates an ext4 filesystem on the device /dev/sdc1, which is the partition that will be used for the new filesystem. The second command appends a line to the /etc/fstab file, which is the configuration file that controls persistent mount points of filesystems. The line specifies the device name, the mount point (/data), the filesystem type (ext4), the mount options (defaults), and the dump and pass values (0 0). The other commands are incorrect because they either do not create or configure a filesystem, or they have wrong syntax or arguments.

The custom.conf file grants sudo privileges to user1 and webadmin for managing the Apache web service, but it uses different commands for each of them. User1 is allowed to use systemctl to start and stop the httpd service, while webadmin is allowed to use init.d, service, or apache2ctl to restart the httpd service. However, the user1 is unable to restart the service, only start and stop it. To fix this, user1 should be able to use the same commands as webadmin, which can be achieved by listing webadmin as a group in the custom.conf file, using the syntax %groupname. This way, user1 will inherit the sudo privileges of the webadmin group, and be able to restart the Apache web service without compromising the least privilege security model.

The IP ping works, but DNS resolution fails, indicating that a DNS server is not configured properly in /etc/resolv.conf. That file is responsible for DNS resolution.

Both A and C correctly:

Execute the script every 2 hours (*/2 or defined 2-hour intervals),

During May (5 in the month field),

On Sunday through Tuesday (0-2 or 0-3 where Sunday = 0),

Targeting /root/update-from-remote-to-local.sh.

The others are either too broad (0-23/2 includes non-target days) or use incorrect ranges.

In Docker, a Dockerfile is a script that contains instructions to build a container image. The first line in a Dockerfile is typically the FROM directive, which specifies the base image from which the container will be built.

The correct syntax for specifying a base image is:rubyFROM :If no tag is provided, Docker will pull the latest version of the specified image by default.

The correct syntax for specifying a base image is:rubyFROM :If no tag is provided, Docker will pull the latest version of the specified image by default.

The correct syntax for specifying a base image is:rubyFROM :If no tag is provided, Docker will pull the latest version of the specified image by default.

The correct syntax for specifying a base image is:rubyFROM :If no tag is provided, Docker will pull the latest version of the specified image by default.

The correct syntax for specifying a base image is:rubyFROM :If no tag is provided, Docker will pull the latest version of the specified image by default.

httpd is the official Apache HTTP Server image available in Docker Hub.

The incorrect options:

BASE httpd → Incorrect, as there is no such directive in Dockerfile syntax.

USE httpd → Incorrect, this is not a valid Docker command.

INHERIT httpd → Incorrect, as Docker does not use INHERIT to specify base images.

Thus, the correct answer is A. FROM httpd.

The file command is used to determine the type of a file by examining its contents. It can recognize many different formats, such as text, binary, executable, compressed, image, audio, video, etc. It can also display some additional information about the file, such as encoding, size, dimensions, etc12

Production web servers should use certificates issued by trusted Certificate Authorities (CAs).

B is correct: This describes the proper process—generate a private key, create a CSR (Certificate Signing Request), send it to a CA, and use the returned signed certificate for HTTPS.

Incorrect Options:

A: SSH keys are for SSH, not HTTPS/TLS.

C: Self-signed certs are insecure in production.

D: Irrelevant to HTTPS; /dev/random is used for entropy generation.
