C is totally wrong, it’s not even close to valid syntax!
TE

Wait, can you really use +s for SUID? That seems off.

B doesn't seem correct, it’s missing some syntax.
RO

I think E looks good too.

A is definitely the right command!

I don't remember seeing `-type suid` in our materials, so I'm hesitant about option C. It seems off to me.

I feel like I saw a question similar to this in our last practice exam, and I think `-user` is the right way to specify the owner, but I'm not confident about the rest of the command in option B.

I think option E looks familiar; I practiced using `-perm +4000` to check for the SUID bit, but I can't recall if `-suid` is the right flag.
JA

I remember something about using `-uid 0` for finding files owned by root, but I'm not sure if the syntax is correct in option A.
TE

This seems straightforward. I'll go with option A - it looks like it covers all the requirements in the question.

I'm a little confused by the different options here. I'll need to review my notes on the find command syntax to make sure I choose the correct one.
NA

Okay, let's see. I know I need to look for files owned by root with the SUID bit set in the /usr directory. I think option A might be the right one.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the different options for the find command. I'll need to think this through carefully.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to re-read the question and options carefully to make sure I understand the full scope of the issue before selecting an answer.

Oof, NTP configuration - that's not my strongest area. I'll need to really focus and take my time to make sure I get this right. Hopefully the exam provides clear instructions to follow.

Anyone else feel like the exam writers are just trying to confuse us with these weird find command options? I'm just gonna go with the one that sounds the most straightforward.
FR

Yeah, let's go with option A) find /usr -uid 0 -perm +4000.
RO
Royce

I agree, that one seems like the most straightforward choice.
YU
Yuette

I think option A) find /usr -uid 0 -perm +4000 is the correct one.
NE
Nelida

Ha! Option E is the winner, it's the only one that actually uses the -suid flag. Feels like a trick question, but I'm going with it.
EL

Option D is just weird, why would you use -ls and -u together? Seems like overkill.

MA

I'm not sure, but I think C) find -type suid -username root -d /usr might also be a possible answer. It mentions the type and username we are looking for.

I agree with Junita, A) find /usr -uid 0 -perm +4000 makes the most sense based on the question.
JU
Junita

I think the correct answer is A) find /usr -uid 0 -perm +4000 because it specifies the user and permission we are looking for.
