Agenda

Lecture Assignment 8

Due at the start of class, Wednesday, October 5.

Please submit answers to these questions either as a hard copy (typeset or handwritten are OK) or by email to jteresco AT siena.edu by the start of class. Please use a clear subject line when submitting by email (e.g., CS 180 Lecture Assignment 8, Joe Student). We will discuss these questions at the start of class, so no late submissions are accepted.

  1. Log in to the class account on winterstorm.teresco.org using a secure shell client. What does it print when you type the command below?
    uname -a
    

    You may use the class account on winterstorm.teresco.org to answer the remaining questions.

  2. One of the junk email messages I received recently had header information that showed the message came from IP address 113.165.23.107. Use a whois tool to find out to whom that address is registered.
  3. Use a traceroute command to find the route from a lab computer or your own computer to a web site hosted somewhere in India. Paste in the output of the traceroute.
