How to regen a Mirror and

Regen a Stripe with parity

You'll be asked about picking the best config for a system with 4 SCSI

drives,

your goals are

speed, single drive can't cause a failure and max space available. At first

I

picked a 4 drive

stripe set, then remembered couldn't boot from it, then picked a boot drive

plus

3 drive stripe

then remembered if the single boot drive failed that wouldn't meet the

requirment. Started

to pick Duplex, but the question didn't offer two controllers, simple mirror

was

the answer.

Know what the Client Administration tools are and how to use them from a

Win95

machine to

administer permissions on a remote server.

Know how to take a jammed printer's spool files and direct them to another

printer.

One question had you building a new domain. You installed 3 domain

controllers

(PDC and two

BDC) and now want to take 200 machines off the workgroup model and add them

to

the domain.

What are the three activities that need to take place (hint: User Mgr

Domains,

Server Mgr on PDC, and

control panel network on the 200)

Question about file MOVE within same NTFS partition (permissions stay same)

Question about using Disk Admin Tools to convert a FAT to NTFS (trick is

that

you need to

note it's a fat partition on a physical drive that already has a NTFS

partition,

that's what

eliminates the one option of using CONVERT.EXE

Your setting up a RAS server for a group that won't be accessing resources

out

of thier own

network, you set their IP address, what else MUST you do, answer was SUBNET

MASK.

One microsoft sell job question. Users are accessing RAS using a 3rd party

PPP

tool that only

has DES encryption, what should you the RAS admin require so that they have

better security?

Answer was Microsoft Encryption....nasty shot I thought.

Two questions referencing replacing failed drives. Must you Partition

before

you format?

Must you format before you add to a stripe?

One easy one where a SALES person joins the MANAGER group and can's access a

file,

Exhibit showed SALES group with NO ACCESS, answer was to remove USER from

the

SALES group.

One question on a boot sector virus wiped out the boot drive. Do you go to

another system

and format a floppy then do SYS on the dead one or do you boot from the

setup

disks and

use the Emergency Repair?

Three questions about making an Emergency BOOT diskette.

1) Pick the BOOT.INI ARC entry to point to a different boot partition where

it's

the second partition on the second drive

2) Edit the BOOT.ini to point to the other Mirror drive in case the primary

fails

3) What file do you need to make an Boot diskette for a two SCSI system

where

the second controller isn't

bios enabled, it's the filename that ends in DD ( i remember it as Damn

Drive).

Question about a company with three sites. The remote sites all run WS with

Netbeui, but use TCPIP and routers to

get to the central sites servers. 90% of access is local, 10% remote.

Rearrange the bindings to optimize the access.

Obvious answer was to put NETBUEI first on the WS and the remote sites.

Question about a user going to a roaming profile, where do you make the

entry

and what does it look like, and how

does the user get it.

That's about all I can remember
