|  Today's poser is as follows:
Q9. You have been hired to deploy a Windows 2000 network for a small business. You must also plan and establish NTFS permissions for all users. You want to simplify administration and backup operations. What should you do? (Choose all that apply)
A. Place applications and shared data in each user's home folder on the server.
B. Create separate folders for applications, shared data, and individual user data (home folders) on the server.
C. Place home folders and shared data beneath public folders on the server volume where your applications and operating system reside.
D. Place home folders and shared data folders beneath public folders on a server volume separate from you applications and the operating system.
Good Luck ...... see you tomorrow for the answer. | |

| I say B, D, but with only 50% confidence | |

| Okay, here we go again. Another bites the dust. (I hope.) Tricky question.
A. Place applications and shared data in each user's home folder on the server.
Don't think I would want to do that.
B. Create separate folders for applications, shared data, and individual user data (home folders) on the server.
Not really simplifying things, but best answer so far.
C. Place home folders and shared data beneath public folders on the server volume where your applications and operating system reside.
Not a safe bet.
D. Place home folders and shared data folders beneath public folders on a server volume separate from your applications and the operating system.
Once again, not simplifying the process, but a safe bet, security and data wise.
So I will have to say that I would go with,
D...final answer!
And I didn't even use a lifeline! | |

Correct Answers: B and D
A. Incorrect: Placing applications is each user's home folder is an inefficient use of disk space. Most applications that are run from the server should be installed only on the server, and all users should access the application from this central location. Home folder data should not be mixed with application data. If the application must be upgraded or removed, home folder data might be lost.
B. Correct: To simplify administration, group files into separate folders for applications, shared data, and individual user data. This is also the most efficient way to optimize access to these folder and file resources. For example, application, home, and shared data folders require different permissions because of how they are used.
C. Incorrect: Placing home folders and shared data folders beneath public folders does provide a manageable structure for configuring permissions. However, placing these folders on the same drive containing your applications and operating system is dangerous because user data could fill the partition to capacity and cause the operating system to fail.
D. Correct: Centralizing home folders and public folders on a volume that is separate from applications and the operating system is an ideal structure for administration. For example, you could choose to compress the partition containing the user data while leaving the application and operating system partition uncompressed. | |

| Guess I didn't win the Million dollars.
But now that I read your answers, it does make sense. Just didn't do my homework. |
