|  And today's poser is ....
Q29. You are the administrator of a workgroup supporting computers running Windows 2000 Professional. A remote computer named RemWin2000 is used for remote encryption. You want to achieve these results:
1. Use EFS to encrypt files on RemWin2000.
2. Use EFS to encrypt data transferred over the network.
3. Use EFS to encrypt the \Documents folder on your computer running Windows 2000 Professional.
4. Set an OU Group Policy for recovery of EFS-encrypted data.
Your proposed solution is to logon to your computer as Administrator, use Windows Explorer to encrypt the \Documents folder, and use the Cipher command-line utility to encrypt the appropriate folders and files on RemWin2000.
Which results does the proposed solution provide? (Choose all that apply)
A. Files in the \Documents folder on RemWin2000 are encrypted using EFS.
B. Data transferred over the network is encrypted using EFS.
C. The \Documents folder on your computer is encrypted using EFS.
D. An OU Group Policy is defined for recovery of EFS-encrypted data.
Good Luck .... see you tomorrow for the answer!! | |

| Hey people,
OK, i am also a bit weary on this, but ill take a stab at it...
A. Files in the \Documents folder on RemWin2000 are encrypted using EFS. - The question does not say it encrypted the \doc's on the remote computer, just yours, so no i guess.
B. Data transferred over the network is encrypted using EFS. - I remeber reading somwhere that encrypted data cant be transefered over a network, somthing to do with keys and things.
C. The \Documents folder on your computer is encrypted using EFS. - Yes, because in the question we used win explorer to do this.
D. An OU Group Policy is defined for recovery of EFS-encrypted data. - Erm, this one a bit dodgy for me, does'nt the recovery poilicy get set automatically? Perhaps not, wait is this a workgroup? erm, ill say no.
Ill say just C then, but the choose all that apply gets me and perhaps D?! 
But final anwser C, Sorry bout the long winded response, | |

| Sorry people, encrypted data can be transfered over a network but stays encrypted unless you got the key.
B says "data transfered over the network is encrypted using EFS" does it mean all data? I take it does, so not all the data is encrypted unless you apply EFS to all the files, so B is no still. I guess..damn now im confused... | |

Well didn't a few of you have fun with this one!! And the answer is ....
Correct Answers: A and C
A. Correct: Encryption is available by default and is activated by setting the encryption attribute on a file or folder. By encrypting the \Documents folder on the remote computer, any files created in this folder are encrypted. You should apply this encryption when the folder is empty. If files are in the folder and you choose to apply encryption to the folders, subfolders, and files, other users who are not recovery agents on the computer will not be able to decrypt the files.
B. Incorrect: Data encryption is integrated with NTFS version 5 and functions locally. Data is not encrypted by EFS as it traverses the network.
C. Correct: As with the remote computer (RemWin2000), encryption is available by default. On both the remote computer and local computer, the first user created during the Windows 2000 setup routine or the local Administrator account is designated as the recovery agent.
D. Incorrect: An OU is a construct of a Windows 2000 domain. If the computers are members of a Windows 2000 domain, you can assign a GPO to the OU containing the computers and then configure a recovery agent Group Policy setting in this GPO. By default, the domain Administrator account is designated as the recovery agent in the Default Domain Policy GPO. |
