If your educational institution included the Jones & Bartlett labs as part of the course curriculum, use this script to introduce the lab:

 

"In this lesson, you learned about user rights and file permissions. You also explored how access controls are implemented in various operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows and UNIX-based systems.

 

In the lab for this lesson, you will create new user accounts on a Linux virtual machine and grant administrator privileges to one of those user accounts. You will also create two new security groups, add user accounts to those groups, and then delete one of those user accounts."
