Finally made it through the end of my last week of work and I am ready to focus on this class. Doing this assignment was a breeze....until it was not.
Following instruction was fairly straightforward. Type this... and this will happen, check check. I hit a snag when I forgot my username for the server, was blocked using Chrome but then switched to Explorer. Went to change password in the server and noted that my username is not the username I had originally thought, so problem solved.
Then I breezed through the next set of instructions until I went into less, and promptly forgot how to exit out of the list. That required a bit of backtracking on the reading until I found the magical 'q' button that would exit me out of less.
Adding a user via the command line was pretty easy with the directions in front of me. Would be harder to replicate without instructions but at some point I am sure it would be more intuitive.
Then went on to Ubuntu and realised there is an issue. It never launches the utility so I usually type in startx and it launches the desktop. However, it is still not working. Going to reinstall the desktop and try to finish. Part two to come later........
