CompTIA A+ (220-902) — Question 8

A technician is remotely connecting to a workstation using SSH to transfer a security hotfix. Which of the following command line tools would the technician use to create a directory to store the hotfix?

Answer options

• A. dir
• B. rd
• C. cd
• D. md

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as 'md' (make directory) is the command used to create a new directory in the command line. Options A (dir) simply lists directory contents, B (rd) is used to remove directories, and C (cd) is for changing directories, making them unsuitable for creating a directory.
