If you need a list of files in a given directory, for example, so you can loop through them, how can you get a clean list of file names? On a windows based PC, you can use dos commands. You’ll need to start by accessing the command line. Below are directions on how to do that in Windows. Note that if you are using
Stata, you can access the command line by starting the command with a “!” in other words, do get a list of files in the current directory one would type “! dir”. First you’ll need to get to the command prompt, you can do this by going to: Start -> Run -> Type in “cmd”  This will open the command window. Next I will have to move into the correct directory. On my computer, the default directory is on the C: drive, but the folder I want to list the files for is on the D: drive, the first thing I will see is the prompt “C:\>”. The first command below (d:) changes to the D: drive. The second command moves to the directory d:mydir which is the directory I want to list the files in. The final line asks for a listing of the directory, the resulting list of files is shown below. d: cd d:\mydir dir Now I know I’m in the right directory. The basic command to list the files in a directory and place them in a text file is seen below, dir indicates that I want a directory listing, and the >..myfile.txt indicates that I want to place that listing in a file called myfile.txt one directory above the directory I am listing. (If you do not use the “..” to place the file in the directory above the current directory, myfile.txt will be listed along with your other files, which you probably don’t want.) dir >..\myfile.txt If I open myfile.txt in notepad, I see the following:
This is a listing of the directory, but it’s not really what I want, there is too much extra information, so I can add options to the command to get just the names of the files. Adding /b to the command causes the list to contain just the file and directory names, not the information on the number of files, when they were created, etc.. Adding /a-d to the command removes the names of the directories, so all we have are the file names. (There are a number of other options as well, typing help dir will list them. Note that I don’t need to delete myfile.txt to rerun the command, the old content will automatically be replaced with the output generated by the new command. dir /a-d /b >..\myfile.txt now myfile.txt contains: 10oct2006.txt 11nov2007.do 5june2007.txt beameruserguide.pdf blog - jsm 2007.doc clarify.pdf houseplants.txt Mardia 1970 - multivar skew and kurt.pdf multiple imputation a primer by schafer.pdf output 1.txt output 2.txt output 3.txt output 4.txt results.dta test.txt zelig.pdf Now suppose I wanted the list to contain only a certain type of file, for example, only text files with the extension txt. To do this, I can use a wildcard (*) and the file extention to get only files with the extention .txt . The command below does this. dir *.txt /a-d /b >..\myfile.txt myfile.txt contains: 10oct2006.txt 5june2007.txt houseplants.txt output 1.txt output 2.txt output 3.txt output 4.txt test.txt What command issued from a command prompt will display the routing table in Windows?Route is a Windows command that displays and updates the network routing table.
Which Windows domain based protocol provides mutual authentication between devices?EAP-TLS (Transport Layer Security)
EAP-TLS provides certificate-based, mutual authentication of the network and the client. Both the client and the server must have certificates to perform this authentication.
What has occurred when all routers in a network have accurate information after a change in the network?A state of convergence is achieved once all routing protocol-specific information has been distributed to all routers participating in the routing protocol process.
What level of security should you use with your access points?Because your connection is being transmitted “in the clear,” malicious actors could use sniffing tools to obtain sensitive information such as passwords or credit card numbers. Ensure that all the access points you connect to use at least WPA2 encryption.
