The error indicates that X11 forwarding is not enabled. X11 forwarding allows graphical applications to be displayed on a remote system over an SSH connection. Enabling X11 forwarding in /etc/ssh/ssh_config and restarting the SSH service ensures that the necessary configuration is applied, allowing the administrator to open graphical applications remotely.

To prevent certain files from being tracked by Git, the administrator can use a .gitignore file (B) in the repository. The .gitignore file can specify patterns of files or directories that Git should ignore. This way, the Terraform state files will not appear in the main branch or any other branch. The other commands are not related to this requirement. References:

The issue occurs because the home directory /home/userA is owned by root, not by userA, as seen from the ls -lth /home output. In Linux, the user must have ownership of their home directory to log in and access their files properly. To fix this, the administrator must change ownership using chown userA:userA /home/userA.

The command that will display the operating system is uname -o. This command uses the uname tool, which is used to print system information such as the kernel name, version, release, machine, and processor. The -o option stands for operating system, and prints the name of the operating system implementation (usually GNU/Linux).

The other options are not correct commands for displaying the operating system. The uname -n command will display the network node hostname of the system. The uname -s command will display the kernel name of the system. The uname -m command will display the machine hardware name of the system. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 1: Exploring Linux Command-Line Tools; uname(1) - Linux manual page
