| Hey Everyone!
I few a few more questions I was hoping to get clarified!
You are a network administrator for your company. The network contains 50 Windows 2000 Server computers, which are in the Servers Organizational Unit (OU) in Active Directory. The network also contains 1,500 Windows 2000 Professional computers, which are in the computers contains in Active Directory. You need to deploy the most recent Windows 2000 service pack. The service pack must update only the
servers. You download the service pack and extract the file into a newly created shared folder named SPFiles. You need to install the service pack on all of the servers, and you want the installation to occur with on all of the servers, and you want the installation to occur with no user interaction. What should you do?
A. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Servers OU. Under the computer configuration, configure the GPO to assign the Update.msi file from the SPFiles folder. Restart each server.
B. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Servers OU. Under the computer configuration startup script, configure the GPO to assign the Update.msi file from the SPFiles folder. Restart each server.
C. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Domain level. Under user configuration logon script, configure the GPO to assign the Update.msi file from the SPFiles folder. Log on to each server as Administrator.
D. Create a script that runs the Update.exe file from the SPFiles folder. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Servers OU. Modify the computer configuration of the GPO to run the script on startup. Restart each server.
Answer: A
SHOULDN'T THIS BE D??? I HAVE HEARD YOU ALWAYS USE THE UPDATE.EXE TO DEPLOY A SP?
You are a network administrator for Contoso Pharmaceuticals. The network consists of a single forest that contains four Windows 2000 domains named contoso.com, domain1.contoso.com, domain2.contoso.com, and domain3.contoso.com. In domain3.contoso.com. You administer two Windows 2000 Server computers named ServerA and ServerB. ServerA and ServerB run the DNS server service. Users on Windows 2000 Professional computers in domain3.contoso.com report that they cannot access resources in domain1.contoso.com. When you escalate the problem to the enterprise administrators, you are informed that the DNS zone for domain3.contoso.com was recently corrupted with erroneous A (host) records. However, after the enterprise administrators correct the A records, users still report that they cannot access resources in domain1.contoso.com
You want users in domain3.contoso.com to be able to immediately access resources in
domain1.contoso.com. Which two actions should you take? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two)
A. Create an Active Directory integrated zone for domain3.contoso.com on Both ServerA and ServerB.
B. Clear the DNS cache on ServerA and ServerB by using the DNS console.
C. Run the ipconfig/flushdns command on each user’s computer.
D. Run the ipconfig/release command on each user’s computer.
E. Initiate a scavenging operation of stale resource records on ServerA and ServerB by using the DNS console.
Answer: B, C
I HAVE ALSO HEARD THIS SHOULD BE C AND E
You are a network administrator for your company. The network contains 2,500 Windows 2000 Professional computers, 70 Windows 2000 Server member servers, and 5 Windows 2000 Server domain controllers. All computer accounts are in their default location in Active Directory. You need to deploy the most recent service pack to all of the computers with the least amount of administrative effort. What should you do?
A. Create a script named Update.bat that runs the Update.exe file from a network share. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Computers container. Set the computer configuration to run the Update.bat script on startup. Restart each computer.
B. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Domain level. Configure the GPO to assign the Update.msi file under the user configuration logon script. Log on to each computer as Administrator.
C. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Domain level. Configure the GPO to assign the Update.msi file under the user configuration logon script. Restart each computer.
D. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Computer container. Configure the GPO to assign the Update.msi file under the computer configuration. Restart each computer.
Answer: C
SHOULDN'T YOU ASSIGN THE GPO TO THE COMPUTERS OU?
You are a desktop administrator for your company. All client computers run Windows 2000 Professional. You are installing a new Plug and Play combination scanner and print device on a user’s computer. You connect the print device to the computer’s parallel port. However, you discover that Windows 2000 does not detect the new print device.
You open Device Manager on the computer and discover that there is no listing for the printer or for any unidentified devices. You run the Scan for hardware changes command in Device Manager, but no new hardware is detected. You want Windows 2000 Professional to detect and install drivers for the new print device. What should you do?
A. In the system BIOS, enable Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) support.
B. In the Driver Signing Options dialog box, set File Signature.
C. Use the Add/Remove Hardware wizard to install the manufacturer’s printer driver.
D. Turn off the computer, and then turn off the print device, and then turn on the computer.
Answer: A
I HAVE ALSO SEEN THIS WAS ANSWERED A AND B.
Thanks for all your feedback and help everyone! My test is scheduled for the 8th so I am studying hard!

| 1.) - correct
2.) - correct
3.) - I don't think "C" is correct, however it's either "B" or "D", not sure.
4.) - correct | |

D. Create a Group Policy Object and link it to the Computer container. Configure the GPO to assign the Update.msi file under the computer configuration. Restart each computer.
Answer: C
SHOULDN'T YOU ASSIGN THE GPO TO THE COMPUTERS OU?
If you were to do A and create a script it would run each time you start the computer.
Using B is unnecessary. You can assign the update independently of a logon script.
In D you are trying to link the GPO to the computer container and that is a no no.
In C you are creating a GPO at the domain level and telling it to install the update under “computer configuration”. This is the right answer. | |

| Great Thanks everyone! So when do you use update.exe over update.msi??? | |

Appear to be braindumps. Only because Microsoft always uses companies like Contoso and Fabrikam, and these questions look very similiar to ones that I had. Did you ever notice if you goto www.contoso.com it will take you to M$ home page, and if you goto www.fabrikam.com it will bring up the page for Office? | |

These sure look like braindump questions to me. 
To answer your question, it's kind of dependent upon how you want to deploy the Service Pack.
To install the Service Pack locally, you can use the Update.exe file that is included with Service Pack (instead of the Update.msi package). Using the Update.msi package is supported only by using a computer-level Group Policy software deployment. (I hope you understand what that is)
I suggest researching these questions out yourself and come up with an idea of why you believe one answer is right and the others are wrong instead of looking for quick answers.
Just my 2 cents. | |
| ANDRONDA 2003-01-23, 9:00 am |
| Braindumps are illegal public posting of intellectual property and I agree that that if someone posts one it should not be addressed. There is an integrity issue there. I would give justindu the opportunity to clarify.
Justindi, please tell us where the questions came from. | |
| justindu 2003-01-23, 9:56 am |
| sorry if i offended any one.. these questions are from the MCSA cd study guide from www.testout.com. I assume they are a very reputable company since I have used them in the past. | |
| ANDRONDA 2003-01-23, 11:02 am |
| That is why I wanted you to clarify.
They are good questions. A brain dump is where people go into a test, take it then try to regurgitate what they just took for others. Over time they build collections and post them on the public internet.
Very clearly when you take the test you agree to NOT do that so therefore they are illegal.
Some IT people really get ticked off over them because they feel that their existence “weakens” the value of certifications. I can see the point. I just want to learn the stuff so they are not how I would study. | |
| justindu 2003-01-23, 11:04 am |
| I totally agree! Sorry again! So maybe I should ask Testout about their questions??? | |
| ANDRONDA 2003-01-23, 12:01 pm |
| Some of the test question companies format their questions to be as close as possible to the ones on the test. The writers know all about Contoso and Fabrikam and work them into whatever questions they write.
I would not assume that they are stolen from MS.
However posting them may be in violation of the Test Out license agreement. | |

| Really?? I never thought of that... thanks | |
|
| Sorry for butting in, but "Braindump" or not, purging DNS is something that I'm unclear on.
What's the difference between:
- Clearing the DNS cache by using the DNS console.
And
-Initiate a scavenging operation of stale resource records by using the DNS console.
Any pointers on DNS purging would be appreciated! | |
| ANDRONDA 2003-01-23, 3:10 pm |
| Scavenging would be used in this case:
With dynamic update, resource records are automatically added to zones when computers start on the network. However, in some cases, they are not automatically removed when computers leave the network. For example, if a computer registers its own host (A) RR at startup and is later improperly disconnected from the network, its host (A) RR might not be deleted. If your network has mobile users and computers, this situation can occur frequently.
It has to be added onto Win 2K server and apparetly is quite involved.
Read all about it at:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows200...g
ing.htm
THe DNS console lets you empty the DNS cache. It is the correct choice for an incorrectly added DNS entry since the incorrect DNS entry is not an RR. | |

| Many thanks Andronda.  I think that would explain some of the "odd" behaviour of DNS where I work!

Please explain this concept to me. What is wrapped? | |
|
| Some spaces creep into (long) web address when you copy and paste them - so the web address "wraps" around onto the next line.
You'll see it happen in emails too. The result is that the link to the web page "breaks". | |
| ANDRONDA 2003-01-24, 10:44 am |
| Ahhhhh. I did not know about that since the links always work fine when I click them no matter what.
That is good to know. |
