1. You are the network administrator for Contoso, Ltd. The network consists of a single Active Directory domain, contoso.com. All network servers run Windows Server 2003. All client computers run Windows XP Professional.

Contoso's headquarters is in Washington, D.C. with an offshore branch in Tel Aviv. You have configured the local Tel Aviv branch with a Group Policy Object (GPO) that redirects the users' Start menu to a shared folder on a local server named Server1. Several users report that although they can still access files on Server1, some of the programs they use are now missing from their Start menus.

What should you do?

Choose two actions. Each action represents a complete solution.

A. Launch the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). Run Resultant Set of Policy (Resultant Set of Policy) against one of the affected user accounts in logging mode.
B. Launch the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). Run Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) against Server1 in planning mode.
C. Run the secedit command against an affected user account.
D. Run the gpresult command against an affected user account.
E. Run the gpupdate command against an affected user account.


Answer: A, D

The most likely cause of the problem is a combination of policies. You can isolate the problem by one of two methods. You can run Resultant Set of Policy (Resultant Set of Policy) against one of the affected user accounts in logging mode. You would access it through the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). An alternative method is to run the gpresult command against an affected user account.

2. You are the network administrator for Contoso, Ltd. The network consists of a single Active Directory domain, contoso.com. All network servers run Windows Server 2003. All client computers run Windows XP Professional.

Contoso has a location in London and a location in Brussels. Each location is configured as an Active Directory site and has two domain controllers.

Before users can log in, a legal notice must be displayed on the local desktop. Users receive the notice and then log in. The legal department informs you that a new notice must be put in effect immediately. You make the change to the text and apply Group Policy using the gpupdate tool. Users in London receive the new notice, but a week later, users in Brussels are still receiving the old notice.

What should you do?

A. Temporarily assign one of the London domain controllers to the Brussels site. Reassign the domain controller to London after 24 hours.
B. Force Active Directory replication between the sites.
C. From a London domain controller, log onto a Brussels domain controller and seize the infrastructure master role.
D. Create a new security group for all of the Brussels client computers. Grant this group permission to read and apply the Group Policy Object (GPO).
E. Create a new security group for all of the Brussels computers. Grant this group permission to read and apply the Group Policy Object (GPO).

Answer: B

Because Brussels is still receiving the old notice, this indicates that Active Directory replication has not yet taken place. You can correct the problem by forcing Active Directory replication between the sites.

3. You are the network administrator for Contoso, Ltd. The network consists of a single Active Directory domain, contoso.com. All network servers run Windows Server 2003. All client computers run Windows XP Professional.

Users in the Sales department are members of the Sales security group and the Sales Users organizational unit (OU). Contoso purchases a new Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application that must be installed on all client computers in the Sales Users OU. The application is bundled in a .msi file which you have copied to a shared folder named \\Server1\SalesApps. You have assigned the Sales group the Allow - Read permission for the SalesApps share. Now you need to enable Sales users to download and install the application on their own computers.

What will you do?

Choose two actions. Each action represents a complete solution.

A. Create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) linked to the Sales Users OU. Enable the Always install with elevated privileges setting in the Windows Installer node under the Computer Configuration node. Instruct users to launch the .msi file in the \\Server1\SalesApps folder.
B. Create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) linked to the Sales Users OU. Disable the Never install with elevated privileges setting in the Windows Installer node under the Computer Configuration node.
C. Create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) linked to the Sales Users OU. Assign the new application to all client computers.
D. Create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) linked to the Sales Users OU. Enable a policy that creates a link to the shortcut for the installation executable. Grant permission to the Sales users to create temporary files in the \\Server1\SalesApps folder.

Answer: A, C

There are two ways to publish applications through Group Policy. One way is to enable users to install applications with elevated privileges. This enables users to install applications without requiring membership in a security group that has local administrator privileges on the local computer. You could do this by creating a new Group Policy Object (GPO) linked to the Sales Users OU. Then you would enable the Always install with elevated privileges setting in the Windows Installer node under the Computer Configuration node. Finally, instruct users to launch the .msi file in the \\Server1\SalesApps folder.

An alternative and much simpler method is to create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) linked to the Sales Users OU. Then use the GPO to assign the new application to all client computers. This method is preferable, as it does not raise the security issue of installing future applications which may have unintentional or intentional malevolent effects.

4. You are the network administrator for Contoso, Ltd. The network consists of a single Active Directory domain, contoso.com. Contoso has locations in Atlanta and Chicago. Each location has two domain controllers.

A new user application needs to be deployed to corporate users. You create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) named App1 and link it to the domain. You configure the User Configuration node of App1 to assign the application. Users in Atlanta report that the application is not available. Users in Chicago can use the application. You need to make the application available to all users.

What will you do?

A. Run the gpresult command on domain controllers in Atlanta.
B. Run the gporesult command on domain controllers in Atlanta.
C. Run the gpotool command on domain controllers in Atlanta.
D. Run the gpupdate command on domain controllers in Atlanta.
E. Force directory replication between all domain controllers in the domain.

Answer: E

The problem in this scenario is that Group Policy updates have not made it to the domain controllers in Atlanta. You can correct the problem by forcing directory replication between all domain controllers in the domain. There is not a Group Policy command-line utility that will enable you to correct this problem.

5. You are the network administrator for Contoso, Ltd. The network consists of a single Active Directory domain, contoso.com. The domain functional level is Windows Server 2003. All network servers run Windows Server 2003. All client computers run Windows XP Professional. Built-in groups are installed with the default memberships.

There are two domain controllers in the domain. Domain controllers are backed up nightly. You are testing some Group Policy changes to enhance security. You accidentally disable the local Administrator account in the Default Domain Policy Group Policy Object (GPO). You are no longer able to log onto either of the domain controllers as Administrator.

What should you do?

A. Restore the entire hard disk of one of the domain controllers using the last full backup preceding the change to the Default Domain Policy. Restart the domain controller. Allow Active Directory replication to take place.
B. Restart one of the domain controllers in Safe mode. Log on locally as Administrator. Create a second administrator account. Restart the domain controller. Use the new administrator account to undo the change to the Default Domain Policy.
C. Restart one of the domain controllers in Directory Services Restore Mode. Perform an authoritative restore of the Domain Controllers organizational unit (OU) using the last full backup preceding the change to the Default Domain Policy. Restart the domain controller.
D. Restart one of the domain controllers and run the Recovery Console from the Windows Server 2003 CD. Stop the GPC service. Restart the domain controller.

Answer: B

To solve the problem in this scenario, you need a valid administrative account to undo the change to Group Policy. To create the account, you can restart one of the domain controllers in Safe mode and log on locally as Administrator. Then create a second administrator account. After restarting the domain controller, use the new administrator account to undo the change to the Default Domain Policy.
