Hi, I passed Server4.0 in South Korea.

<I got three exhibit questions.>

Select a proper encryption option, but different from other questions just clicking.
you have to mark one circle with crossbar on the simulation of Network Configuration window. I click on the Allow any authentication including clear text. The question is just simple as you often saw and knew. :)


Normal Q. Why a guy can not access a XX file.. He recently moved sales to manager group.

The answer is simple as you know.. but you have to know opening User manager of domains window in the exhibit.


You have a mirror set with SCSI disks and one disk fails. How do you set up the ARC path on your boot-disk? (answer: c)

----Disk 0: system, Data, Data
----Disk 1: Data, system (Mirror set), Data

a. scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(2)
b. scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)
c. scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(2)
(this one!)
d. scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)

Be careful this Q did not mention about BIOS enable or disable.


Consider the following Memory settings taken from the Network option on Control Panel for a PDC:

->balance click

What task is this PDC optimized to perform?(1)

a. managing a network of around sixty users
b. managing a small network of around ten users
c. running a SQL Server client-server application
d. sharing an Access database


<I got the damn mandatory profile question ¦Q like this>

Your network is configured as a single domain that has three domain controllers and 25 NT Workstations. For security purposes you assign roaming user profiles to all user accounts in the domain.

The profiles are mandatory.
The server on which the profiles are stored fails.

What will happen when users attempt to log on to the domain while the server is shut down? (answer:????)

a.Users will log on successfully and will receive their profiles, but any changes made to the computer will be lost.
b.Users will not be able to logon to the domain.
c.Users can choose to log on to the domain and select a profile that is stored on a different server.
d.Users will log on successfully and will receive the Default user profile.

---I was confused because some people said "B" is the answer, others confirmed "D" is the answer. I can not say what is the answer. Please check yourself.


<Frame type¡&hibar;s difference Q like this>

You have a NT Server running IPX and some kind of client also running IPX, but some of the client are not able to connect. Why? (answer: b)

a. Wrong subnet
b. Wrong Frame Type
c. Permissions are set to No Access


<Pagefile; Question like this>

Your pagefile has increased its volume. How will that affect? (choose 2) (answer: a and c)

a Applications will start more slowly

b I/O of the network will increase

c The disk will be fragmented

d Current content of the pagefile will be lost.


8. there are 2 disks and Pagefile on the system partition of the first disk. How can you increase performance? (easy and simple answer. move it to the other disk.)


<A couple of fault tolerance; Question like this>

5 disks with fault tolerance and want to access quickly. (stripe set with parity is only the answer)

Just want to quick access without fault tolerance.(stripe set is only the answer)

2 SCSI disks with each controller...bla bla bla.(disk duplexing is the answer)


<Performance Monitor; Question like this>

In Performance Monitor, which objects/counters should you use to measure excessive paging?

Answer is not just like pages/second, but something like this "the counter of pagefile"

(this Q drived me crazy.. I can not remember exactly.. but like this )

search the server¡&hibar;s function for a week¡¦and want to confirm the peak period's something(?) what you have to use? (my chose is c, not a because of the word..¡±peak¡±)

a. log
b. report
c. chart
d. alert

I am not sure the answer¡¦..but I tried best.


<Binding; Question like this >

There are 4 areas (central and 3 remotes). All area has own server.

All workstations in the remote area log on to the server local (tricky) to the remote area and use heavily NetBIOS.

They also log on remote (tricky) to central with tcp/ip. Improve remote workstations performance?(a)

(This Q is difficult for me as none native English speaker. So if you are none native speaker, drawing the situation on a paper. It's going to be work)

a) NetBIOS up and tcp/ip down in all remote works.
b) NetBIOS up and tcp/ip down in all remote servers.
c) tcp/ip up and NetBIOS down in all remote works.
d) tcp/ip up and NEtBIOS down in all remote servers.


<NTFS permissions; Question like this>

What happens to file permissions when you use Windows NT Explorer to copy files from one subdirectory to another one on the same NTFS partition? (answer: d)

a. All file permissions are set to full control for the Everyone special group.
b. All file permissions are discarded.
c. All file permissions are retained.
e. All file permissions are inherited from the destination subdirectory.

move file to a same NTFS partition.... (answer: Permissions are always retained)


 

That's all I can remember, but if you get Transcender practice exam, you will pass easily.

Actually I have never, ever got Pass grades in the 3 Transcenders exam(A,B,C). So I was shocked. I felt I could not pass Server Exam. But I did with over 850;

Go for it.. If you know why you can not answer with the Transcender exam as well as you can figure out the right answer, you can pass.

Good Luck.
