Step 4: Sloppy cybersecurity scenario There's a special server on your company's network called (privateserver). The security team is lazy and not particularly good at their job - I mean, who names a private server "privateserver," right? Something else they did was to give it a network address that is hidden, sort of. All you've been told is that the network configuration files on our server should be correctly configured so that a DNS search is not required to connect to privateserver. Use the Fox textbook (chapter 5) as a resource to investigate what network configuration files exist and which one(s) may have the answer to how our server can communicate with privateserver. Which file (or files) is/are likely to contain the configuration that your sloppy cybersecurity team is referring to? 1. Investigate the relevant Linux files and summarize your troubleshooting results in the Word document. 2. Create a screenshot that confirms you found the configuration necessary for communicating with privateserver. 3. You still can't log in to privateserver, so maybe the problem is on that server. Which network configuration files should the admin of that server look at to determine if the problem is that our server is allowed or disallowed to log in to privateserver?
