Questions
1. Only the Research group has remote access permissions to a shared folder named TopSecret on your Windows 2000 Professional computer. You discover that some members of the Research group have enabled offline access to files in the TopSecret folder, in violation of a corporate security policy. The files must remain available over the network, but you want to stop users from having offline file access to the TopSecret folder. How should you prevent offline access to the files?
a. by disabling the Server Service for the folder
b. by disabling the file caching option for the folder
c. by enabling the Automatic Caching for Programs option for the folder
d. by clearing the Enable Offline Files option in the Folder Options tool
2. The company you work for has provided you with a laptop that has a battery life of up to two hours. Your job often requires you to be away from your laptop during the day, occasionally for several hours at a time. During your absence, you want the battery usage of your laptop to be minimized. Additionally, you want to resume your work as quickly as possible when you return. What should you do to accomplish this with the least amount of administrative effort?
a. Shut down the computer.
b. Use Power Options in Control Panel to enable hibernate mode.
c. Use Power Options in Control Panel to select the Portable/Laptop power scheme.
d. Use Power Options in Control Panel to create a custom power scheme.
e. Use the Screen Saver tab in Display Properties to enable a blank-screen screen saver.
3. Your network is divided into two subnets: Subnet 1 and Subnet 2. You have designated a Windows 2000 Server computer on Subnet 1 as a Remote Installation Services (RIS) server. You have purchased 10 new computers and connected 5 of them to Subnet 1 and 5 of them to Subnet 2. You want to install Windows 2000 Professional on these computers, none of which contains a PXE-enabled BIOS. You run Rbfg.exe to create a remote installation boot disk and begin the Windows 2000 Professional installation. The client computers on Subnet 1 can connect to the RIS server, but the client computers on Subnet 2 cannot. Your network is configured as shown in the exhibit.
What action should you perform to solve this problem?
a. Place a DHCP Relay Agent on Server A.
b. Place a DHCP Relay Agent on Server B.
c. Replace the non-PXE-enabled computers with PXE-enabled computers.
d. Enable BOOTP on your network router.
4. The new print device that you attached to LPT1 on your Windows 2000 Professional computer can print up to 32-bit color resolution on 11-by-17-inch coated paper. When you first attached the Plug and Play device, Windows 2000 detected and installed it. Printing is normal when you print single page graphics at low resolution on 8.5-by-11-inch paper, but when you use the highest resolution or attempt to print multiple pages, the print job stalls. Using Windows Explorer, you determine that drive C has very little available disk space and drive D has over 1 GB of free disk space. What is the best action to take to correct your printing problems?
a. Remove the printer and then use the Add Printer wizard to reinstall the printer on drive D.
b. Relocate the Spool folder to drive D.
c. Download and install an updated driver from the manufacturer of the print device.
d. Set the printer properties to Start printing after last page is spooled.
e. Set the printer properties to Print directly to the printer.
5. You have recently configured your home computer and your company's remote access server with multilink functionality. For security purposes, you have also configured your company's remote access server to perform callback for authenticated users. You call into the remote access server, establish your credentials and receive a callback. The call is only received by one of your multilink-enabled modems. What is the most likely explanation for this situation?
a. The remote access server has only one modem.
b. Only one modem on the remote access server matches the speed of your home computer's modems.
c. When you called in, your credentials were sent in plaintext.
d. Your user account on the remote access server contains only one number to call back.
6. You have a small home office with one Windows 2000 Professional computer and three Windows 98 computers. The computers are connected in a peer-to-peer network that uses NetBEUI; however, TCP/IP is also installed on all the computers. You want to be able to access the Internet from any computer, but only the Windows 2000 computer has a modem installed. You enable Internet connection sharing on the Windows 2000 computer. You want to enable all the computers on your home network to access FTP and HTTP sites on the Internet, and you want to use the default port assignments for FTP and HTTP. What should you do to enable this functionality?
a. Assign each computer a static TCP/IP address.
b. Configure the FTP service on the Windows 2000 Professional computer to use remote port 110.
c. Configure the FTP service on the Windows 2000 Professional computer to use remote port 21.
d. Configure the HTTP service on the Windows 2000 Professional computer to use remote port 25.
e. Configure the HTTP service on the Windows 2000 Professional computer to use remote port 80.
Answers:
1) Choice b is correct. When you shared the TopSecret folder, the files in the folder were made available for manual caching and offline file access by default. To disable the caching of files for offline access by users, you should use Windows Explorer to browse to the shared TopSecret folder, open the folder's Property dialog box and select the Sharing tab. You should click the Caching button and clear the Allow caching of files in this shared folder option. Users will still have access to the files in the TopSecret folder, but the files will not be available as offline files. Disabling the Server Service would prevent your shared folders from being available to anyone across the network, although you yourself would still have access to shared resources on other computers. When you share a folder, you can either disable file caching altogether, as in this scenario, or you can allow file caching. When file caching is enabled, you can control how files are accessed and cached. The default option is Manual Caching for Documents, and users must specify which files are to be cached. The second option is Automatic Caching for Documents. If this option is selected, then every file that is opened is automatically downloaded to the client computer. For both of these options, when the client computer opens a shared file, it opens the version of the file that is located on the server; the computer with the shared folder is the server. The third option is Automatic Caching for Programs. This option causes the client computer to download a file when it first accesses the file. Subsequent accesses by that client will open the locally cached file rather than the shared network file. This option is often preferred if the shared file rarely or never changes, such as a program file or a static document. The Automatic Caching for Programs option helps minimize network traffic. The Enable Offline Files option in the Folder Options tool in Control Panel affects your computer, but not other users' computers. When this option is cleared, you have no access to offline files, even if the files are cached on your computer.

2) Choice b is correct. The hibernate mode provides a convenient way to have your computer shut down gracefully after a preset period of inactivity, while saving your current session in its entirety. When your computer goes into hibernation, everything in physical memory is saved to the hard disk before the computer shuts down. When you restart the computer, the files and applications that you were using when you left the computer are restored to the desktop. Because everything in memory is saved to disk, the free disk space on your computer must be greater than or equal to the amount of physical memory installed on the computer. Otherwise, you will get an error message indicating that there is not enough free disk space to enable hibernation. Your computer must be configured from the factory with support for hibernation to take advantage of this feature. When you manually shut down your computer, you typically have to save files and close applications. Then, if you want to resume where you had left off, you will have to restart your applications, reopen the files and reset any session-specific settings. Configuring your laptop to use either the default or a custom Portable/Laptop power scheme would save battery power by turning off the monitor and the hard drive after a specified amount of time. These power-saving schemes prolong the length of time you can leave your computer turned on, but eventually the computer would run out of battery power and turn off, losing any information not previously saved. A blank-screen screen saver would reduce the power required for video, but your computer would still suffer an ungraceful shutdown if your battery failed.

3) Choice b is correct. You should place a DHCP Relay Agent on Server B, which is located on Subnet 2. RIS uses DHCP packets to communicate with client computers during the startup phase. If the DHCP packets cannot travel across the router, then the client computers are unable to communicate with the RIS server. Windows 2000 Server provides the Windows 2000 Router as part of the Routing and Remote Access service (RRAS). This router is RFC 1542-compliant Boot Protocol (BOOTP) and can relay packets between DHCP clients and DHCP servers. If your network had contained this type of router, then you would not require a DHCP Relay Agent to enable communication between the non-PXE enabled clients and the RIS server because the Windows 2000 Router would relay the DHCP packets across the router. The Rbfg.exe utility can be used to create a remote boot disk that enables non-PXE-enabled clients to emulate the PXE environment and connect to a RIS server. The Pre-Boot Execution Environment (PXE) technology is contained in a chip that resides on a computer's BIOS. RIS uses this technology to install Windows 2000 Professional from a remote network location to the client computers. In this scenario, you used Rbfg.exe to enable your new computers to act as PXE-enabled clients. Therefore, it is not necessary to replace these new computers. Because the router is non-1542-compliant, BOOTP cannot be enabled on it.

4) Choice b is correct. You should relocate the Spool folder to drive D, which has a large amount of free disk space available for temporary file storage. The installation process for the Windows 2000 Professional operating system creates a spool folder in the default location of %SystemRoot%\System32\Spool\Printers, where %SystemRoot% is the installation folder for the operating system, usually the Winnt folder. The Spool folder is used to store temporary files that are created during the printing process. The temporary files have file name extensions of .shd and .spl, which stand for shadow and spool, respectively. The spool file can become quite large, especially when you are printing long documents or high-quality graphics. To relocate the Spool folder, you should first create a new folder on the D drive; for example, D:\Spool2\Printers. Then, open the Printers folder, either from Settings on the Start menu or from Control Panel. From the File menu, select Server Properties and click the Advanced tab. Type the path to the new folder in the text box and click OK. Changing the location of the folder will cause all pending print jobs to be cancelled. If the printer had been installed on a computer running Windows 2000 Server, then you would also want to stop and restart the spooler service. You can further improve printing performance by installing the print spooler on a separate hard drive that has its own controller. The installation of a printer, either by using Plug and Play technology or by using the Add Printer wizard, would not allow you to change the location of the spool folder. An updated driver could solve other printing problems, such as the inability to print certain types of documents. The Start printing after last page is spooled option would increase the size of the temporary spool file because printing would not begin until the entire document was spooled. The Print directly to the printer option would disable the spooling of print jobs. This option is generally reserved for situations such as troubleshooting a corrupted spooler. If print jobs were sent directly to the printer, then print management functions, such as the scheduling of print jobs or the assignment of printing priorities, would be unavailable.

W2KSOH, Contents, "Files and Printers," "Printing," "How To...," "Manage and Set Print Servers," "To change the spool folder location."
5) Choice d is correct. You can store only one number per user account on the remote access server. Therefore, if your remote access server requires callback, you may not be able to take advantage of multilink functionality. Even if you use multiple modems with multilink enabled, only one of your modems will be called back by the remote access server. This problem can be avoided if your multilinked phonebook entry is an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) connection that contains two channels with the same dial-in telephone number. The remote access server must have two or more modems installed so that it can be configured for multilink functionality. The modems in a multilink connection can be different speeds; however, the maximum speed of the connection is determined by the slowest modem in the configuration. A remote access server does not require an encrypted password for authorization; passwords can be sent as plaintext to the remote access server.

6) Only choices c and e are correct. Internet connection sharing enables multiple computers to access the Internet through a single connection. It can also be used to allow multiple users to perform different tasks simultaneously over a single Internet connection. A TCP port provides a specific location for delivery of TCP segments. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) provides a set of default TCP port assignments. When you configure the Windows 2000 Professional computer for Internet connection sharing and you want the other computers on your home network to use these default port assignments to access FTP and HTTP sites on the Internet, you should configure FTP to use remote port 21 and HTTP to use remote port 80. By default, port 110 is assigned to Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) and port 25 is assigned to Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP). When you configure Internet connection sharing on the Windows 2000 Professional computer, it becomes a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server for the Windows 98 computers on the network. Therefore, you do not need to configure static IP addresses on the Windows 98 computers. As each computer starts, the Windows 2000 Professional computer, in its role as the DHCP server, will assign a unique IP address to each computer.
