Test Name:NT Server 4.0

Test #70-067

Date: Jan 27 1999

NT Server is now adaptive. I took the test today at a VUE center and had the new format. It is a mix--you get 15-25 questions in the adaptive format, then 10 "standard" questions.

I took Workstation last week and this site was an incredible help. I also used Transenders, took the MS certified courses (803/922). Most of my study was from this web site and taking, and retaking the Transenders. The new test format for Server has a lot of the concepts of the older test, but the questions have been reworked, so if you are memorizing answers and not theories, you are in trouble. Know your stuff!!!!

My score: 701, pass was 545. You CAN'T get a 1000 on adaptive (or partially adaptive) tests. The adaptive feature kicks you out once it is satisfied with your score from the section. You will see as the dumps come in most people will be in the 600's and 700's. If you are taking adaptive there is one indicator to how well you are doing--the amount of questions you get.

If you get the minimum amount of questions, or close to it, that's a very good sign in most cases. When I took Workstation I got kicked out at 15 questions, and I KNOW my answers for EVERYONE of those questions were correct. Nuff said, on to the dump.

 2 questions on ARC paths, just bite the bullet and learn em'

=====

1 on permissions, pretty easy.

Diagram with two NTFS drives, Drive "A" Managers have Read/Write, Executives have Change, Drive "B" Managers have Read/Write, no mention of Executives.

Question asks what happens if you COPY a file from Drive A to B.

Remember COPY--->Inherit MOVE-->Retain (permissions that is, on a single NTFS partition) If you are ever talking about multiple partitions, then the files will ALWAYS INHERIT the permissions of the target folder.

Answer: Managers will have Read/Write --Since Managers were the only permissions listed on drive B, Execs get NO PERMISSIONS--at least for this question

=======

Long one. You have 2 SCSI drives, with two partitions on each. EVERYthing is Fat. You want these things:

*Use of long file names

*Fault tolerance

*NT compression

*File/Folder security

*One other one I forget

Solution:

You set up mirror set. blah, blah.

A twist to the answer, it asks, so what can you do (out of the five things, no more "meet required stuff") you can:

*use long filenames

*have fault tolerance

The other answers were wrong because you needed NTFS, and it said all FAT.

========

Old RAS question, you want to see problems with something---

Enable DEVICE.log using the registry

======

Easy one--users want their own home drives on server--what to do?

USER MANAGER FOR DOMAINS, specify UNC and DRIVE LETTER<--- DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE DRIVE LETTER

=======

Min requirements for Disk Striping with Parity?

One controller and 3 disks

===========

NetWare users want to access your new NT Server SQL database--What's needed NW LINK . Other answers were like RIP, bogus stuff--

========

NetWare, two frame types 802.2 and 802.3-This is from Transenders and other dumps

What to do on NT?

Manual Detect, and enter both frame types

==========

RAS

Users call in to database, mix of MS and 3rd party. Not all callers use database You want encryption, what to do?

Configure 2 ports one with encryption for callers that need it, other for regular dial ups

=========

Performance questions--saw this in another dump, don't know the answer for sure.

High paging AND processor usage is at 85%, from using some crazy application, no specs on the computer though best to do--pick one?

The only two which it could be out of the list were:

Add more ram

Add another processor

MS says that is above 80% add a processor, but pages were high too. MS ALSO says that Ram helps the most. I said Add RAM, but I could have been wrong.

If you get it flip a coin, because there is enough stuff out there to support both answers.

===============

One Perf mon question

One how "to" send Alert question

Auditing question with diagram--Answer was that "All changes will be audited"

All in all I thought this test was harder than the Transenders due to the new format. As I mentioned you must KNOW YOUR stuff, memorizing won't do it for this one, the questions HAVE CHANGED!!!!!!!

Know NETWARE, RAS, ALERTS, PERF MON well.

Don't toss those Transenders, use em. Make sure you can get in the 900's every time. Study this site. Forget about the books unless you didn't take the classes. If you did take the classes, just stick to the class books and this site.

Good luck to all!!!
