4. You are backing up all of the data on a computer on your network using the following strategy.

6. You are the administrator for a medium-size network. Three people in your company are working together on a project for the human Resources department. They are dealing with documents that contain sensitive information. Because they are working on laptops they are concerned that should the laptops be stolen, the security of the data will be comprised. To ensure that the data remains confidential even in the event that a laptop is stolen you decide to use the Encrypting File System (EFS). How can EFS be configured for these documents so that all three of the people can access the encrypted data on the other computers from their own computer?

A. Encrypt the documents yourself. Configure the NTFS permissions so that the three people needing access have at least Modify permission.
B. Configure the NTFS permissions so that the three people needing access have at least Modify permission and at least one of them has Full Control permission. Ask the person with Full Control permission to encrypt the documents.
C. Encrypt the documents yourself. Share the folders that the documents are located in and grant the three people at least Change permission to the shared folders.
D. Grant Full Control NTFS permission to all three people. Share the folders and configure the permissions of the shared folders so that all three people have Full Control to the shared folders. Ask one person to encrypt the documents.
E. you cannot configure EFS in this manner. EFS does not support the sharing of encrypted documents between users.

7. Knowing the location of the files involved in the Windows 2000 boot process is very important when troubleshooting startup problems. Your system is configured with two partitions (C: and D. The C: partition is the active partition and the D: partition is the boot partion. If all of the following files are present on this system, which of them will NOT be located on the C: drive? Choose all that apply.

This has happened before and you would like to prevent current administrators from adding othger users to the Administrators group. However, you don't want to prevent them from adding users to other groups or restrict their abilities to perform other administrative funtions. What can you do to accomplish this?

A. Change the Active Directory permissions so that the Administrators group only has read access to all group objects.
B. Under "User Rights Assignmnet" in Group Policies, take the "Add users to a Group" right away from the Administrators group.

(4) - "A", you only need 2 tapes, the last normal or full backup and the last differential (in this case Thursday's)

(6) - "E" You can't do what they want to with EFS.

(13) - "A" I agree with Device Manager, but the question's a little odd. Also there are times when Device Manager says a device is working properly but it doesn't work.

(7) - "D"

(5) - "C" restricted groups would work.

In all of their wisdom Microsoft defines the boot partition as the partition that contains the system files. The system partition contains the boot files and is almost always the root of C:

Agree with all the rest of the answers.

As an FYI, E: is correct when using Windows 2000. In the real world, you would upgrade to XP. XP allows sharing of encryted files.
