LAB PREPARATION

Purpose / Objectives of Lab 3

  5. Your linked mobile device for 2FA

INVESTIGATION 1: Create the Directory Structure

Figure 1. Square icons are directories, oval icons are empty text files.

In this investigation, you'll create the directory structure and text files you see in the tree diagram below. You will do so entirely on the command line using the utilities and command provided to you in the Week 3 lecture.

You work will be done entirely in your home directory.

To begin:

  1. Start your CentOS Linux VM in Azure (this may take a few minutes)
  2. Connect to the VM remotely using SSH
  3. Navigate to your home directory with this command: cd ~
  4. In your home directory, recreate the directory tree in Figure 1. yourusername should be your own username home folder that already exists.
