DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC)
What are the major changes?
Support for Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) is introduced in
Windows Server. 2008 R2 and Windows. 7. With Windows Server 2008 R2 DNS server,
you can now sign and host DNSSECsigned zones to provide security for your DNS
infrastructure.
The following changes are available in DNS server in Windows Server 2008 R2:
Ability to sign a zone and host signed zones.
Support for changes to the DNSSEC protocol.
Support for DNSKEY, RRSIG, NSEC, and DS resource records.
The following changes are available in DNS client in Windows 7:
Ability to indicate knowledge of DNSSEC in queries.
Ability to process the DNSKEY, RRSIG, NSEC, and DS resource records.
Ability to check whether the DNS server with which it communicated has performed
validation on the client’s behalf. The DNS client’s behavior with respect to DNSSEC is controlled through the Name Resolution Policy Table (NRPT), which stores settings that define the DNS client’s behavior. The NRPT is typically managed through Group Policy. What does DNSSEC do? DNSSEC is a suite of extensions that add security to the DNS protocol. The core DNSSEC extensions are specified in RFCs 4033, 4034, and 4035 and add origin authority, data integrity, and authenticated denial of existence to DNS. In addition to several new concepts and operations for both the DNS server and the DNS client, DNSSEC introduces four new resource records (DNSKEY, RRSIG, NSEC, and DS) to DNS. In short, DNSSEC allows for a DNS zone and all the records in the zone to be cryptographically signed. When a DNS server hosting a signed zone receives a query, it returns the digital signatures in addition to the records queried for. A resolver or another server can obtain the public key of the public/private key pair and validate that the responses are authentic and have not been tampered with. In order to do so, the resolver or server must be configured with a trust anchor for the signed zone, or for a parent of the signed zone.

Offline Domain Join
Offline domain join is also useful when a computer is deployed in a lab or other disconnected environment.
When the computer is connected to the domain network and started for the first time, it will already be a member of the domain. This also helps to ensure that Group Policy settings are applied at the first startup.
Four major steps are required to join a computer to the domain by using offline domain join:
1. Log on to a computer in the domain that is running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7 with an account that has permissions to join computers to the domain.
2. Use the DJoin command to provision a computer for offline domain join. This step prepopulates Active Directory with the information that Active Directory needs to join the computer to the domain, and exports the information called a blob to a text file.
3. At the offline computer that you want to join the domain use DJoin to import the blob into the Windows directory.
4. When you start or restart the computer, it will be a member of the domain.
Q10. Your company has a main office and five branch offices that are connected by WAN links. The company has an Active Directory domain named contoso.com.
Each branch office has a member server configured as a DNS server. All branch office DNS servers host a secondary zone for contoso.com.
You need to configure the contoso.com zone to resolve client queries for at least four days in the event that a WAN link fails.
What should you do?
A. Configure the Expires after option for the contoso.com zone to 4 days.
B. Configure the Retry interval option for the contoso.com zone to 4 days.
C. Configure the Refresh interval option for the contoso.com zone to 4 days.
D. Configure the Minimum (default) TTL option for the contoso.com zone to 4 days.
Answer: A
Explanation:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc816704%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
Adjust the Expire Interval for a Zone
You can use this procedure to adjust the expire interval for a Domain Name System (DNS)
zone. Other DNS servers that are configured to load and host the zone use the expire
interval to determine when zone data expires if it is not successfully transferred. By default,
the expire interval for each zone is set to one day.
You can complete this procedure using either the DNS Manager snap-in or the dnscmd
command-line tool.
To adjust the expire interval for a zone using the Windows interface
1. Open DNS Manager. To open DNS Manager, click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click DNS.
2. In the console tree, right-click the applicable zone, and then click Properties.
3. On the General tab, verify that the zone type is either Primary or Active Directory-integrated.
4. Click the Start of Authority (SOA) tab.
5. In Expires after, click a time period in minutes, hours, or days, and then type a number in the text box.
6. Click OK to save the adjusted interval.
Q11. Your company, Contoso Ltd has a main office and a branch office. The offices are
connected by a WAN link. Contoso has an Active Directory forest that contains a single domain named ad.contoso.com.
The ad.contoso.com domain contains one domain controller named DC1 that is located in the main office. DC1 is configured as a DNS server for the ad.contoso.com DNS zone. This zone is configured as a standard primary zone.
You install a new domain controller named DC2 in the branch office. You install DNS on DC2.
You need to ensure that the DNS service can update records and resolve DNS queries in the event that aWAN link fails.
What should you do?
A. Create a new stub zone named ad.contoso.com on DC2.
B. Create a new standard secondary zone named ad.contoso.com on DC2.
C. Configure the DNS server on DC2 to forward requests to DC1.
D. Convert the ad.contoso.com zone on DC1 to an Active Directory-integrated zone.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Q12. Your network contains an Active Directory domain. The domain contains two sites named Site1 and Site2. Site 1 contains five domain controllers. Site2 contains one read-only domain controller (RODC). Site1 and Site2 connect to each other by using a slow WAN link.
You discover that the cached password for a user named User1 is compromised on the RODC.
On a domain controller in Site1, you change the password for User1.
You need to replicate the new password for User1 to the RODC immediately. The solution must not replicate other objects to the RODC.
Which tool should you use?
A. Active Directory Sites and Services
B. Active Directory Users and Computers
C. Repadmin
D. Replmon
Answer: C
Explanation:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc742095.aspx
Repadmin /rodcpwdrepl
Triggers replication of passwords for the specified users from a writable Windows Server 2008 source domain controller to one or more read-only domain controllers (RODCs).
Example:
The following example triggers replication of the passwords for the user account named JaneOh from the source domain controller named source-dc01 to all RODCs that have the name prefix dest-rodc:
repadmin /rodcpwdrepl dest-rodc* source-dc01 cn=JaneOh,ou=execs,dc=contoso,dc=com
Q13. Your company uses shared folders. Users are granted access to the shared folders by using domain local groups. One of the shared folders contains confidential data.
You need to ensure that unauthorized users are not able to access the shared folder that contains confidential data.
What should you do?
A. Enable the Do not trust this computer for delegation property on all the computers of unauthorized users by using the Dsmod utility.
B. Instruct the unauthorized users to log on by using the Guest account. Configure the Deny Full control permission on the shared folders that hold the confidential data for the Guest account.
C. Create a Global Group named Deny DLG. Place the global group that contains the unauthorized users in to the Deny DLG group. Configure the Allow Full control permission on the shared folder that hold the confidential data for the Deny DLG group.
D. Create a Domain Local Group named Deny DLG. Place the global group that contains the unauthorized users in to the Deny DLG group. Configure the Deny Full control permission on the shared folder that hold the confidential data for the Deny DLG group.

Any group, whether it is a security group or a distribution group, is characterized by a scope that identifies the extent to which the group is applied in the domain tree or forest.
The boundary, or reach, of a group scope is also determined by the domain functional level setting of the domain in which it resides. There are three group scopes: universal, global, and domain local.
The following table describes the differences between the scopes of each group.
C:\Documents and Settings\usernwz1\Desktop\1.PNG
When to use groups with domain local scope Groups with domain local scope help you define and manage access to resources within a single domain. For example, to give five users access to a particular printer, you can add all five user accounts in the printer permissions list. If, however, you later want to give the five users access to a new printer, you must again specify all five accounts in the permissions list for the new printer.
