CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 19

A server administrator mounted a new hard disk on a Linux system with a mount point of /newdisk. It was later determined that users were unable to create directories or files on the new mount point. Which of the following commands would successfully mount the drive with the required parameters?

Answer options

• A. echo /newdisk >> /etc/fstab
• B. net use /newdisk
• C. mount ג€"o remount, rw /newdisk
• D. mount ג€"a

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct command is C, as it remounts the /newdisk with read and write permissions, allowing users to create files and directories. Option A only adds the mount point to the fstab file without mounting it, B is a Windows command and irrelevant here, and D attempts to mount all filesystems from fstab, which may not apply the required options for /newdisk.
