Based on the output of the image sent by the user, Joe is unable to log in to the Linux system because his account has been locked due to too many failed login attempts. The pam_tally2 -u joe -r command will resolve this issue by resetting Joe’s failed login counter to zero and unlocking his account. This command uses the pam_tally2 module to manage user account locking based on login failures. The usermod -s /bin/bash joe command will change Joe’s login shell to /bin/bash, but this will not unlock his account. The passwd -u joe command will unlock Joe’s password if it has been locked by passwd -l joe, but this will not reset his failed login counter or unlock his account if it has been locked by pam_tally2. The chage -E 90 joe command will set Joe’s account expiration date to 90 days from today, but this will not unlock his account or reset his failed login counter. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 18: Securing Linux Systems, page 537.

For normal users to change their own password, /bin/passwd must have the SUID bit set (permissions should be -rwsr-xr-x). The SUID bit allows users to run the program with the permissions of the file owner (root), which is required to update /etc/shadow. The provided output shows /bin/passwd does not have the SUID bit (no 's' in the owner’s execute field). As a result, user "test" receives an "Authentication token manipulation error". The password can be changed as root, which confirms it's a permissions/SUID issue.

Other options:

B. If the password didn’t meet requirements, a different error would appear.

C. There is no minimum day limit preventing password change (see chage -l output).

D. The account and password are active (not disabled).

The issue is caused by the server 192.168.168.53 being unreachable. This server is the DNS server configured in the /etc/resolv.conf file, which is used to resolve domain names to IP addresses. The ping command shows that the server cannot be reached, and the nslookup command shows that the name www.comptia.org cannot be resolved using this server. The other options are incorrect because:

The name www.comptia.org does point to a valid IP address, as shown by the nslookup command using another DNS server (8.8.8.8).

The default route is set on the server, as shown by the ip route command, which shows a default gateway of 192.168.168.1.

The network interface eth0 is connected, as shown by the ip link command, which shows a state of UP for eth0. References: CompTIA Linux+ Study Guide, Fourth Edition, page 457-458, 461-462.

After installing a new version of a package that includes a new version of the corresponding service file, the systemct1 daemon-reload command must be issued first in order to use the new version of the service file. This command will reload the systemd manager configuration and read all unit files that have changed on disk. This will ensure that systemd recognizes the new service file and applies its settings correctly. The systemct1 status command will display information about a service unit, but it will not reload the configuration. The systemct1 stop command will stop a service unit, but it will not reload the configuration. The systemct1 reinstall command does not exist. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 17: System Maintenance and Operation, page 518.

The ss command is used to display information about socket connections, such as the port number, state, and process ID. The error message indicates that the port 80 is already in use by another process, which prevents the Apache web server from binding to it. By using the ss command with the -l and -n options, the administrator can list all the listening sockets and their port numbers in numeric form, and identify which process is using the port 80. For example: ss -ln | grep :80. The ip, dig, and nc commands are not relevant for this issue, as they are used for different purposes, such as configuring network interfaces, querying DNS records, and testing network connectivity.

The command that can be used to check for running containers is docker ps. The docker ps command can list all the containers that are currently running on the system. To show all the containers, including those that are stopped, the administrator can use docker ps -a ©. References:

The firewall-cmd --list-services command will return the results for which the administrator is looking. This command will list all services that are allowed through the firewall in the default zone or a specified zone. A service is a predefined set of ports and protocols that can be enabled or disabled by firewalld. The firewall-cmd --get-services command will list all available services that are supported by firewalld, not only those that are allowed through the firewall. The firewall-cmd --check-config command will check if firewalld configuration files are valid, not list services. The systemct1 status firewalld command will display information about the firewalld service unit, such as its state, PID, memory usage, and logs, not list services. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 18: Securing Linux Systems, page 543.

Rugged appliances are small appliances with ruggedized hardware that use Gaia embedded as their operating system. Gaia embedded is a version of Gaia that is optimized for embedded devices such as Rugged appliances and Quantum Spark appliances. Gaia embedded supports features such as VPN, firewall, identity awareness, application control, URL filtering, and anti-bot. Gaia embedded does not use Centos Linux, Gaia, or Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 5 as their operating system. References: Check Point Rugged Appliance Datasheet, page 1.
