Besides, the whole point of doing homework is learning from doing it - it is counterproductive for you to ask, and a waste of time for us to do your work.
Oberoi, How about you show us where you got up to, I'm sure people will be more willing to help if it looks like you're trying.
I'd help, but I wouldn't do it for you!
i'm not sure that even just helping someone when they get stuck is appropriate when it's obvious it's a homework assignment. that's part of the learning process -- troubleshooting and debugging.
in fact, from what i remember of the original posting, it seemed that troubleshooting was the *primary* focus of that assignment, so lending a hand to do just that seems out of place.
just my $0.02.

p.s. besides, it's not really a fedora issue, is it? it's more a shell programming issue.
