2. Linux INstallation and package management
3. GNU and Unix commands
4. Devices, linux Filesystems, filessystem hierachy Standard


Question 1
lspci

NAME
       lspci - list all PCI devices

SYNOPSIS
       lspci [options]

DESCRIPTION
       lspci is a utility for displaying information about PCI buses in the system and devices connected to them.

       By default, it shows a brief list of devices. Use the options described below to request either a more verbose output
or output intended for parsing by other programs.

       If you are going to report bugs in PCI device drivers or in lspci itself, please include output of "lspci -vvx" or eve
n better "lspci -vvxxx" (however, see below for possible caveats).

       Some  parts  of the output, especially in the highly verbose modes, are probably intelligible only to experienced PCI
hackers. For exact definitions of the fields, please consult either the PCI
       specifications or the header.h and /usr/include/linux/pci.h include files.

       Access to some parts of the PCI configuration space is restricted to root on many operating systems, so the features o
f lspci available to normal users are limited.  However,  lspci  tries  its
       best to display as much as available and mark all other information with <access denied> text.

--

 -b     Bus-centric view. Show all IRQ numbers and addresses as seen by the cards on the PCI bus instead of as seen by the kernel.

       -n     Show PCI vendor and device codes as numbers instead of looking them up in the PCI ID list.

       -nn    Show PCI vendor and device codes as both numbers and names.

What is lspci displaying?

How to configure LDAPS, LDAP over SSL, using CA Certificate Service on Domain Controller in Windows Server 2016

This post is to provide an instruction on how to set up LDAPS (LDAP over SSL) on Domain Controller using single-tier CA hierachy. Reasons for Enabling LDAPS By default, LDAP communications between client and server applications are not encrypted. This means that it would be possible to use a network monitoring device or software and view the communications traveling between LDAP client and server computers. This is especially problematic when an LDAP simple bind is used because credentials (username and password) is passed over the network unencrypted. This could quickly lead to the compromise of credentials.  Reasons for enabling Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) over Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) / Transport Layer Security (TLS) also known as LDAPS include: Some applications authenticate with Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) through simple BIND. As simple BIND exposes the users’ credentials in clear text, use of Kerberos is preferred. If simp...

Setting up AD LDS on Windows Server 2016

What Is Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services? Microsoft Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) is an independent mode of Active Directory that provides dedicated directory services for applications. AD LDS is a mode of Active Directory that provides directory services for applications. AD LDS provides dedicated directory services for applications. It provides a data store and services for accessing the data store. It uses standard application programming interfaces (APIs) for accessing the application data. The APIs include those of Active Directory, Active Directory Service Interfaces, Lightweight Data Access Protocol, and System.DirectoryServices. AD LDS operates independently of Active Directory and independently of Active Directory domains or forests. It operates either as a standalone data store, or it operates with replication. Its independence enables local control and autonomy of directory services for specific applications. It al...

How to set up Active Directory Domain Service role in Windows server 2016

Add required features for Active Directory Domain Services. 5. Keep going with default until installing. 6. Once it is successfuly installed, then you need to promote AD server.  7. Add new domain. 8. Type in password for Directory Service Restore Mode and click Next. 10. Proceed with default to installation step. 11. Installation. 12. Once it's all configured, server will reboot. 13. check if you can see ad server on your server now. Done!!.
