Wait, all users have the same password? That’s risky!

Seems straightforward, but why not give copper a shell?

Copper won't have a shell? That's unusual.

I definitely recall that `groupadd` is for creating groups, but I hope I don't mix up the user creation commands.

I feel a bit confused about the password setting part. Did we use `passwd --stdin` in the practice, or was it something else?

This seems similar to the practice questions we did on user management. I just need to remember to use `usermod` for adding users to groups.

I think I remember how to create a group and add users to it, but I'm not entirely sure about the command for setting a user to have no interactive shell.

I got this! CPU share and dedicated CPUs are the way to go to maximize CPU performance consistency. The other options are just a distraction.

I might be mixing things up, but I think the amount of $462 rings a bell from the practice exams. It could be the adverse one, or maybe I'm remembering it wrong.

Ah, I see now. The higher the number after the 'AF', the higher the drop precedence. So AF12 is the correct answer.
