Today's little poser is as follows:

Q7. You are the administrator for your company's Windows 2000 server. Your remote access clients need access to a remote access MS-DOS 5.0 server.

Which authentication protocol should you use?

A. Password Authentication Protocol (PAP).

B. Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP).

C. Shiva Password Authentication Protocol (SPAP).

D. Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP).

E. Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol version 1 (MS-CHAP v1).

Good Luck .... see you tomorrow for the answer!!

PAP with it's plain passwords seems like the best choice.

I reckon PAP,the plain password rule would also edge me to picking this one.

A- Yes

B- No, Msdos not supported this Advance protocol

C- No, unless it is hooking up to a Shiva Server

D- No, Same case as B

E- No, same case as B


MY bet is A - Password Authentication Protocol(PAP)

And today's answers are:

Correct Answers: A

A. Correct: Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) is a simple, plain text authentication protocol. It is the least sophisticated of the authentication protocols. This protocol is typically negotiated if the remote access client and remote access server cannot negotiate a more secure form of validation. MS-DOS 5.0 systems cannot use encryption methods. The only form of authentication that MS-DOS can use is PAP.

Note: PAP passwords are sent in plain text form, which can allow anyone to capture the packets of the authentication process. This means that they can easily read the password and use it to gain unauthorized access to the Intranet. The use of PAP is highly discouraged. It is especially discouraged for virtual private network connections.

B. Incorrect: Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is a protocol that offers higher security than other authentication protocols. Authentication with EAP usually involves mutual authentication and encryption. MS-DOS 5.0 cannot use this protocol.

C. Incorrect: Shiva Password Authentication Protocol (SPAP) is used solely by Shiva remote access servers.

D and E. Incorrect: Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) uses one-way encryption. Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol version 1 (MS-CHAP v1) is similar to CHAP. MS-DOS 5.0 cannot use these protocols.
