13. Correctly parsing a C source file requires a full-fledged parser (such as that built into a C
compiler). Nonetheless, regular expressions can be used to provide a pretty good
approximate descriptions of many program constructs. Which of the following searches
will locate at least most of the C functions that accept an int as a first argument, and

Case Test
Web Server comparison

Please explain base on your experience, what do you think about Apache and NGINX web
server

Apache is more resource-intensive, making it less suitable for large projects and simultaneous
handling of massive data. Its performance may not be as effective, especially in high-traffic
situations.

On the other hand, NGINX is more reliable for handling high traffic. However, for those unfamiliar
with configuring NGINX, it may seem more complicated, especially when dealing with settings
such as reverse proxies.

MySQL Replication

Please explain step by step how to create database replication in MariaDB

Step 1: Configure Master Server (Server A):

sudo nano /etc/my.cnf

and then, we adjust server-id

[mysqld]
server-id = 1
log_bin = /var/log/mysql/mariadb-bin
save
restart : sudo systemctl restart mariadb
Log in to MariaDB and create a replication user: mysql -u root -p
CREATE USER 'nanbaru'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'rahasia';
GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE ON *.* TO 'nanbaru'@'%';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
SHOW MASTER STATUS; ( after u enter this command, we should note ‘file’ and ‘position’ values,
because we need that )
file : hadi
position : mulia

Step 2 : Configure server B

sudo nano /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
server-id = 2
sudo systemctl restart mariadb
login : mysql -u root -p

CHANGE MASTER TO
MASTER_HOST='Server_A_IP',
MASTER_USER='nanbaru',
MASTER_PASSWORD='rahasia,
MASTER_LOG_FILE='hadi',
MASTER_LOG_POS=mulia;

Start replication : START SLAVE;

SHOW SLAVE STATUS \G;
make sure Slave_IO_Running and Slave_SQL_Running both show Yes.

Network Security

Please explain the command to block all port connections and open only for 80 ,8080 and 443?

This command sets the default policy for incoming traffic to deny.
sudo ufw default deny incoming

sudo ufw allow 80/tcp

sudo ufw allow 8080/tcp
sudo ufw allow 443/tcp

sudo ufw enable
