Explanation: 

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3628 Group Policy PExplanation Client Side Extensions for Windows XP (KB943729) Multiple Group Policy PExplanations have been added to the Windows Server 2008 Group Policy Management Console (which are also available through the Remote Server Administration Toolset (RSAT) for Windows Vista SP1). 

Multiple Group Policy PExplanations have been added to the Windows Server 2008 Group Policy Management Console (which are also available through the Remote Server Administration Toolset (RSAT) for Windows Vista SP1). Group Policy PExplanations enable information technology professionals to configure, deploy, and manage operating system and application settings they previously were not able to manage using Group Policy. After you install this update, your computer will be able to process the new Group Policy PExplanation extensions. http://www.petenetlive.com/KB/Article/0000389.htm 

Server 2008 Group Policy PExplanations and Client Side Extensions Problem Group Policy PExplanations (GPP) first came in with Server 2008 and were enhanced for Server 2008 R2, To be able to apply them to older Windows clients, you need to install the "Client side Extensions" (CSE), You can either script this, deploy with a group policy, or if you have WSUS you can send out the update that way.

Solution 

You may not have noticed, but if you edit or create a group policy in Server 2008 now, you will see there is a "PExplanations" branch. Most IT Pro's will have seen the addition of the "Policies" folder some time ago because it adds an extra level to get to the policies that were there before :)

OK Cool! What can you do with them? 

1. Computer PExplanations: Windows Settings 

Environment: Lets you control, and send out Environment variables via Group Policy. 

Files: Allows you to copy, modify the attributes, replace or delete a file (for folders see the 

next section). 

Folder: As above, but for folders. 

Ini Files: Allows you to Create, Replace, Update or Delete an ini file. 

Registry: Allows you to Create, Replace, Update or Delete a Registry value, You can either 

manually type in the Explanation use a Wizard, or extract the key(s) values you want to send 

them out via group policy. 

Network Shares: Allow you to Create, Replace, Update, or Delete shares on clients via 

group policy. 

Shortcuts: Allows you to Create, Replace, Update, or Delete shortcuts on clients via group 

policy. 

2. Computer PExplanations: Control Panel Settings 

Data Sources: Allows you to Create, Replace, Update, or Delete, Data Sources and ODBC 

settings via group policy. (Note: there's a bug if your using SQL authentication see here).

a little "clunky". 

Folder Options: Allows you to set "File Associations" and set the default programs that will 

open particular file extensions. 

Local Users and Groups: Lets you Create, Replace, Update, or Delete either local users 

OR local groups. 

Handy if you want to create an additional admin account, or reset all the local 

administrators passwords via group policy.

Explanation: 

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/uk/winserversecurity/thread/887f4cec-12f6-4c15-a506-568ddb21d46b 

In order to install Enterprise CA you MUST have Enterprise Admins permissions, because Configuration naming context is replicated between domain controllers in the forest (not only current domain) and are writable for Enterprise Admins (domain admins permissions are insufficient). 

Q6. Your network contains two servers named Server1 and Server2 that run Windows Server 2008 R2. Server1 has the Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) Federation Service role service installed. 

You plan to deploy AD FS 2.0 on Server2. 

You need to export the token-signing certificate from Server1, and then import the certificate to Server2. 

Which format should you use to export the certificate? 

A. Base-64 encoded X.509 (.cer) 

B. Cryptographic Message Syntax Standard PKCS #7 (.p7b) 

C. DER encoded binary X.509 (.cer) 

D. Personal Information Exchange PKCS #12 (.pfx)

Q7. You create a new Active Directory domain. The functional level of the domain is Windows Server 2008 R2. The domain contains five domain controllers. 

You need to monitor the replication of the group policy template files. 

Which tool should you use? 

A. Dfsrdiag 

B. Fsutil 

C. Ntdsutil 

D. Ntfrsutl 

Answer:

Explanation: 

With domain functional level 2008 you have available dfs-r sysvol replication. So with 

DFL2008 you can use the DFSRDIAG tool. It is not available with domain functional level 

2003. 

With domain functional level 2003 you can only use Ntfrsutl. 

Q8. Your network contains an Active Directory domain. The domain contains two Active Directory sites named Site1 and Site2. Site1 contains two domain controllers named DC1 and DC2. Site2 contains two domain controller named DC3 and DC4. The functional level of the domain is Windows Server 2008 R2. The functional level of the forest is Windows Server 2003. Active Directory replication between Site1 and Site2 occurs from 20:00 to 

01:00 every day. 

At 07:00, an administrator deletes a user account while he is logged on to DC1. 

You need to restore the deleted user account. You want to achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of administrative effort. 

What should you do? 

A. On DC1, run the Restore-ADObject cmdlet. 

B. On DC3, run the Restore-ADObject cmdlet. 

C. On DC1, stop Active Directory Domain Services, restore the System State, and then start Active Directory Domain Services. 

D. On DC3, stop Active Directory Domain Services, perform an authoritative restore, and then start Active Directory Domain Services. 

Answer:

Explanation: 

We cannot use Restore-ADObject, because Restore-ADObject is a part of the Recycle Bin feature, and you can only use Recycle Bin when the forest functional level is set to Windows Server 2008 R2. In the question text it says "The functional level of the forest is Windows Server 2003." Seehttp://technet.microsoft.com/nl-nl/library/dd379481.aspx Performing an authoritative restore on DC3 updates the Update Sequence Number (USN) on that DC, which causes it to replicate the restored user account to other DC's. Explanation 1: MS Press - Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-640) (2nd Edition, July 2012) page 692 An authoritative restore restores data that was lost and updates the Update Sequence Number (USN) for the data to make it authoritative and ensure that it is replicated to all other servers. Explanation 2: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755296.aspx Authoritative restore of AD DS has the following requirements: You must stop the Active Directory Domain Services service before you run the ntdsutil authoritative restore command and restart the service after the command is complete. 

Q9. You deploy an Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) Federation Service Proxy on a server namedServer1. 

You need to configure the Windows Firewall on Server1 to allow external users to authenticate by using AD FS. 

Which inbound TCP port should you allow on Server1? 

A. 88 

B. 135 

C. 443 

D. 445 

Answer:

Q10. Your network contains an Active Directory domain. 

You need to restore a deleted computer account from the Active Directory Recycle Bin. 

What should you do? 

A. From the command prompt, run recover.exe. 

B. From the command prompt, run ntdsutil.exe. 

C. From the Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell, run the Restore-Computer cmdlet. 

D. From the Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell, run the Restore-ADObject cmdlet.

In Microsoft. Windows. 2000 and Windows Server 2003 Active Directory domains, you could apply only one password and account lockout policy, which is specified in the domain's Default Domain Policy, to all users in the domain. As a result, if you wanted different password and account lockout settings for different sets of users, you had to either create a password filter or deploy multiple domains. Both options were costly for different reasons. In Windows Server 2008, you can use fine-grained password policies to specify multiple password policies and apply different password restrictions and account lockout policies to different sets of users within a single domain. Requirements and special considerations for fine-grained password and account lockout policies Domain functional level: The domain functional level must be set to Windows Server 2008 or higher. 

Q12. Your network contains an Active Directory domain. The domain is configured as shown in the following table. 

Users in Branch2 sometimes authenticate to a domain controller in Branch1. 

You need to ensure that users inBranch2 only authenticate to the domain controllers in 

Main. 

What should you do? 

A. On DC3, set the AutoSiteCoverage value to 0. 

B. On DC3, set the AutoSiteCoverage value to 1. 

C. On DC1 and DC2, set the AutoSiteCoverage value to 0. 

D. On DC1 and DC2, set the AutoSiteCoverage value to 1.

Q13. Your company has a DNS server that has 10 Active Directory integrated zones. 

You need to provide copies of the zone files of the DNS server to the security department. 

What should you do? 

A. Run the dnscmd /ZoneInfo command. 

B. Run the ipconfig /registerdns command. 

C. Run the dnscmd /ZoneExport command. 

D. Run the ntdsutil > Partition Management > List commands. 

Answer:

Explanation: 

http://servergeeks.wordpress.com/2012/12/31/dns-zone-export/ DNS Zone Export In Non-AD Integrated DNS Zones DNS zone file information is stored by default in the %systemroot%\windows\system32\dns folder. When the DNS Server service starts it loads zones from these files. This behavior is limited to any primary and secondary zones that are not AD integrated. The files will be named as <ZoneFQDN>.dns. 

C:\Documents and Settings\usernwz1\Desktop\1.PNG 

In AD Integrated DNS Zones AD-integrated zones are stored in the directory they do not have corresponding zone files 

i.e. they are not stored as .dns files. This makes sense because the zones are stored in, and loaded from, the directory. Now it is important task for us to take a backup of these AD integrated zones before making any changes to DNS infrastructure. Dnscmd.exe can be used to export the zone to a file. The syntax of the command is: DnsCmd <ServerName> /ZoneExport <ZoneName> <ZoneExportFile> <ZoneName> — FQDN of zone to export /Cache to export cache As an example, let’s say we have an AD integrated zone named habib.local, our DC is server1. The command to export the file would be: Dnscmd server1 /ZoneExport habib.local habib.local.bak

Q14. You create a Password Settings object (PSO). 

You need to apply the PSO to a domain user named User1. 

What should you do? 

A. Modify the properties of the PSO. 

B. Modify the account options of the User1 account. 

C. Modify the security settings of the User1 account. 

D. Modify the password policy of the Default Domain Policy Group Policy object (GPO). 

Answer:

Explanation: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731589.aspx To apply PSOs to users or global security groups using the Windows interface 

1. Open Active Directory Users and Computers 

2. On the View menu, ensure that Advanced Features is checked. 

3. In the console tree, click Password Settings Container. 

4. In the details pane, right-click the PSO, and then click Properties. 

5. Click the Attribute Editor tab. 

6. Select the msDS-PsoAppliesTo attribute, and then click Edit. 

7. In the Multi-valued String Editor dialog box, enter the Distinguished Name (also known as DN) of the user or the global security group that you want to apply this PSO to, click Add, and then click OK. 

Q15. Your company has a main office and 10 branch offices. Each branch office has an Active Directory site that contains one domain controller. Only domain controllers in the main office are configured as Global Catalog servers. 

You need to deactivate the Universal Group Membership Caching (UGMC) option on the domain controllers in the branch offices. 

At which level should you deactivate UGMC? 

A. Server 

B. Connection object

http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/c1bd08d2-1440-40f8-95be-ad2050674d91 Script to Disable Universal Group Membership Caching in all Sites How to Disable Universal Group Membership Caching in all Sites using a Script Starting with Windows Server 2003, a new feature called Universal Group Membership Caching (UGMC) caches a user’s membership in Universal Groups on domain controllers authenticating the user. This feature allows a domain controller to have knowledge of Universal Groups a user is member of rather than contacting a Global Catalog. Unlike Global group memberships, which are stored in each domain, Universal Group memberships are only stored in a Global Catalog. For example, when a user who belongs to a Universal Group logs on to a domain that is set to the Windows 2000 native domain functional level or higher, the Global Catalog provides Universal Group membership information for the user’s account at the time the user logs on to the domain to the authenticating domain controller. UGMC is generally a good idea for multiple domain forests when: 

1. Universal Group membership does not change frequently. 

2. Low WAN bandwidth between Domain Controllers in different sites. 

It is also recommended to disable UGMC if all Domain Controllers in a forest are Global 

Catalogs.
