The ip link show eth1 command can be used to check the link status of a network interface named eth1 in a Linux server. It will display information such as the MAC address, MTU, state, and flags of the interface. The ifconfig hw eth1 command is invalid, as hw is not a valid option for ifconfig. The netstat -r eth1 command would display the routing table for eth1, not the link status. The ss -ti eth1 command would display TCP information for sockets associated with eth1, not the link status. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 13: Networking Fundamentals, page 436.

The docker build command is used to build an image from a Dockerfile and a context1. The Dockerfile is a text file that contains the instructions for creating the image, and the context is a set of files that can be used in the image creation process1. The file that the developer received is an example of a Dockerfile.

The -t option is used to specify a name and an optional tag for the image1. The name and tag are separated by a colon (:), and the tag is usually used to indicate the version of the image2. For example, -t myimage:1.0 means that the image will be named myimage and tagged as 1.0.

The last argument of the docker build command is the path to the context, which can be a local directory or a URL1. The dot (.) means that the current working directory is the context2. Therefore, docker build -t myimage:1.0 . means that the image will be built from the Dockerfile and the files in the current working directory, and it will be named myimage and tagged as 1.0.

The command cat toDelete.txt | xargs rm -rf will delete all files and directories with names that are contained in the toDelete.txt file. The cat command reads the file and outputs its contents to the standard output. The | operator pipes the output to the next command. The xargs command converts the output into arguments for the next command. The rm -rf command removes the files and directories recursively and forcefully. This is the correct way to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either use the wrong options (-f instead of -a for xargs), the wrong arguments (toDelete.txt instead of toDelete.txt filename for rm), or the wrong commands (rm instead of xargs). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 11: Managing Files and Directories, pages 349-350.

The command find . -type f -print | xargs grep -li denied will accomplish the task of identifying files that contain any occurrence of the word denied. The find command is a tool for searching for files and directories on Linux systems. The . is the starting point of the search, which means the current directory. The -type f option specifies the type of the file, which means regular file. The -print option prints the full file name on the standard output. The | is a pipe symbol that redirects the output of one command to the input of another command. The xargs command is a tool for building and executing commands from standard input. The grep command is a tool for searching for patterns in files or input. The -li option specifies the flags that the grep command should apply. The -l flag shows only the file names that match the pattern, instead of the matching lines. The -i flag ignores the case of the pattern, which means it matches both uppercase and lowercase letters. The denied is the pattern that the grep command should search for. The command find . -type f -print | xargs grep -li denied will find all the regular files in the current directory and its subdirectories, and then search for any occurrence of the word denied in those files, ignoring the case, and print only the file names that match the pattern. This will allow the administrator to identify files that contain any occurrence of the word denied. This is the correct command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either do not ignore the case of the pattern (find . -type f -print | xargs grep -ln denied or find . -type f -print | xargs grep -wL denied) or do not show the file names that match the pattern (find . -type f -print | xargs grep -nv denied). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 16: Managing Logging and Monitoring, page 489.

The best tool to use when uploading the public key to the remote servers is B. ssh-copy-id. This tool will copy the public key from the local computer to the remote server and append it to the authorized_keys file, which is used for public key authentication. This tool will also create the necessary directories and files on the remote server if they do not exist. The other tools are either not suitable or not relevant for this task. For example:

A. scp is a tool for securely copying files between hosts, but it does not automatically add the public key to the authorized_keys file.

C. ssh-agent is a tool for managing private keys and passphrases, but it does not upload the public key to the remote server.

D. ssh-keyscan is a tool for collecting public keys from remote hosts, but it does not upload the public key to the remote server.

The output shows that the user1 account has a locked password, indicated by the exclamation point (!) in the second field of the /etc/shadow file1. To unlock the password and allow the user to log in, the systems administrator should use the passwd command with the -u (unlock) option2.

The command that would resolve the issue is chmod 600 .ssh/authorized_keys. This command will change the permissions of the .ssh/authorized_keys file to 600, which means that only the owner of the file can read and write it. This is necessary for SSH key authentication to work properly, as SSH will refuse to use a key file that is accessible by other users or groups for security reasons. The output of ls -l shows that currently the .ssh/authorized_keys file has permissions of 664, which means that both the owner and group can read and write it, and others can read it.

The other options are not correct commands for resolving the issue. The restorecon .ssh/authorized_keys command will restore the default SELinux security context for the .ssh/authorized_keys file, but this will not change its permissions or ownership. The ssh_keygen -t rsa -o .ssh/authorized_keys command is invalid because ssh_keygen is not a valid command (the correct command is ssh-keygen), and the -o option is used to specify a new output format for the key file, not the output file name. The chown root:root .ssh/authorized_keys command will change the owner and group of the .ssh/authorized_keys file to root, but this will not change its permissions or make it accessible by the user who wants to log in with SSH key authentication. References: How to Use Public Key Authentication with SSH; chmod(1) - Linux manual page

The script is missing the execute permission. Using chmod 750 startup.sh adds execute permissions for the owner and grants read and execute permissions for the group, allowing the script to run. Without execute permissions, the shell cannot run the script.
