(Correct)
It allows a process to request a single I/O without awaiting for a reply. However, if a second I/O is

Question 5:
You want sendmail to deliver mail for these users:
John.smith@acme.comto mailbox jsmith1
John.smith@foo.comto mailbox jsmith2
John.smith@bar.comto mailbox jsmith3
In which sendmail configuration database can this requirement be defined?
/etc/mail/genericstabl
/etc/mail/virtusertable(Correct)
/etc/mail/domaintable
/etc/aliases
/etc/mail/userdb
Explanation
Correct Answer: C
/etc/mail/virtusertable
This database file maps mail addresses for virtual domains and users to real mailboxes. These mailboxes
can be local, remote, aliases defined in /etc/mail/ aliases, or files. This allows multiple virtual domains to
be hosted on one machine.
The following example demonstrates how to create custom entries using that format: root@example.com
root postmaster@example.com postmaster@noc.example.net
@example.com joe

targetportoptsourcedestination
ACCEPTtcp- - anywhereanywheretcp dpt:http
Another rule is then added:
[root@host01 ~] # iptables A INPUT P tcp - - dport 80 j REJECT
What is the effect of this command on subsequent attempts to access the web server on
HOST01 using port 80?
 New connection attempts always succeed.
 New connection attempts timeout.(Correct)
 New connection attempts are refused and the client informed of the refusal
