    You are on the command line and looking at the file containing password information for a user on the system. The line of information contains different types of data separated by colons such as:

    Code:
    dknight:SYIiurfogGHdc:12915:0:99999:7:-5:12134
    Match the section of the line with what it means. the name "dknight" will be excluded from the question since it is the username.

    1. SYIiurfogGHdc
    2. 12915
    3. 0
    4. 99999
    5. 7
    6. -5
    7. 12134

    A. For how many days is the password valid, although the password has expired.

    B. Encrypted password.

    C. Day on which the account is locked since 1.1.1970.

    D. Date of last change since 1.1.1970.

    E. How many days before password expires should user be warned?

    F. Days after which password must be changed.

    G. Days after which password may be changed.

    Don't overly exert yourself on this one. This is more an exercise in seeing if you can understand the format rather than getting every little thing right. Have fun. Answer later.
