Question

One of your coworkers needs help with a script that he has been working on but cannot seem to get working. He has copied his bad script, superscript.sh, into your home directory under the scripts directory (~/scripts/superscript.sh). After correcting the script, build a simple script of your own to assist in retrieving user info from SLASH/etc/passwd and SLASH/etc/group to make user administration simpler.

#! /bin/slash

@superscript.sh

echo -e “ SuperScript 9000 ”

echo “This script will print the TPS report for 02-14-2016 ”

cat ./SLASH/reports/current/tps-report-02142016.txt

echo -e “ Thank you! ”

A. Correct the Script: Correct your coworker's script, make the script executable (owner and group, not world), execute the corrected script, take a screenshot of the entire script code, take a screenshot of the executed script output, and describe each correction you made to the script to get it working and explain why you made those changes. • Description of each correction made to the script and why:

Explanation / Answer

To execute a script in another directory, use ~/Scripts/dogs.sh
