System Administration Test!

Please reply to each of these questions as best as you know how!

Please write a quick perl function IsPalindrome($string) that when given a string will return true if that string is a palindrome (i.e. the same backwards and forwards) and false if it isn't!

After moving an IP to a new server, the IP is no longer pingable from outside the server. You CAN ping the IP from the server itself. You've checked to make sure it's correctly configured, and that the NIC is functional. What else could it be, MAN?!

You log into a server and notice a lot of processes being run by a suspicious user "badbot". Please submit the one-line linux command to find all the process ids for this user and their environment variables. Secondly, when you get this listing you see all the processes are named the seemingly benign "bash". How would you go about finding out what commands are REALLY being run?

You want to make a simple web-based application for organizing your recipes into categories. A recipe can be in multiple categories and a category can have multiple recipies. You expect to have about 12,000,000 recipes (for real!) and 300 categories. Please submit the create statements for any and all mysql tables you'd need for this project. (A recipe is just a single text field.)

Please submit a bash script to get a list of all users on a server with more than 100MB of mail. (Mail is kept in /home/username/Mail/ for each user.)

Please submit your FAVORITE joke!

Finally, a quick little typing test!
After you've filled out everything above, click "Start!" to reveal some text below.
As fast as you can, re-type the text exactly and then hit enter on your keyboard.

(No cheating... We'll just test you again at the face-to-face interview!)
