Why each option

This question tests knowledge of the correct NetWare server console command to stop and remove a running NLM (NetWare Loadable Module) from memory.

ASTOP NAMED . NLM

STOP is not a valid NetWare server console command - there is no STOP verb in the NetWare console command set for controlling NLMs.

BKILL NAMED . NLM

KILL is a Unix/Linux signal concept and does not exist as a NetWare console command for unloading NLMs.

CNAMED . NLM -EXIT

NLMs do not accept a -EXIT flag in this console syntax - console-level unloading is always performed via the UNLOAD command, not by passing parameters to the NLM name.

DUNLOAD NAMED . NLMCorrect

UNLOAD is the proper NetWare server console command to terminate a running NLM and release its memory - executing UNLOAD NAMED.NLM stops the DNS service cleanly, which is the standard and only supported method for removing an NLM from a live NetWare server console.

ENAMED . NLM -UNLOAD

NLMs do not accept a -UNLOAD flag from the server console - UNLOAD is a standalone console verb, not a runtime parameter passed to the NLM executable.

Concept tested: NetWare console UNLOAD command for stopping NLM modules
