Week 5 Web Architecture
The more and more we progress through the weeks, the more and more I am catching on to how to use Linux. As frustrating as it is. a lot of what is helping it really stick with me is the repetitious nature of our platform for the lab. I still have problems with it weekly either freezing up in some sort of way, or just not working in general to where I have to reboot the platform. That of course in turn means I end up re-entering everything again. This happens to me a couple of times each week. There is also the fact of when I can't find what the error problem is, and sometimes I will reboot the platform to start from scratch. Regardless, I am finding myself much faster with the keyboard and able to identify regular commands we have been using and knowing when and how to use them.
This week I ran into some issues when using the links command to call either of the websites. I have quadruple checked my work, and I cannot seem to find an issue there.
The one thing I noticed as I was completing the lab the first time, was that when editing the /etc/hosts file there is originally a proxy address line that was not included in the screenshot from the lab example. So I tried editing that both ways (with and without the proxy address) to see if either result help me get the correct end result, but it had no effect.

This final screenshot is the failed links command once the proxy address was eliminated from the /etc/hosts file.
These were the original run through, when I left the proxy address in the /etc/hosts file. Clearly the same error, so that must not have been the problem.
UPDATE!!!!!
I figured out what I did wrong. Earlier in the lab there was a spot where we installed the links via #yum -y install links on both plabfed01 and plabfed02. I am sure that due to all of the needing to restart the platform that I just skipped over this section on accident during the final run through of the assignment. I installed the links and redid the lab one more time and was able to get the appropriate output!
