I passed IIS4.0 today and that puts an end to three months  of studying because now I have my MCSE. Yesssssssssss!!!!

I would like to thank everyone who has submitted to the site because on this test 30 out of the 55 questions I had were located on this dump which made the test just a little bit easier.

The following is some notes that I made will studying for this test:

Meta Base - Virtual Directory settings
  HTTP specific properties
  Computer & website properties
  Logging Properties
  FTP Specific properties
  File properties
  Filter Properties
  SSL Key Properties

to Improve SMTP Performance - Decrease message size - decrease the update/retry interval move bad mail folder to another computer

SMTP smart host header-routes messages over a direct or less costly connection

To make a Host header summary - Site server express

IIS usage is slow - CPU usage is low and bandwidth is high - add a nic

Netbios  = Wins

When the amount of info in a word list goes above the limit of the index server set value, what type of index does the cached info go into - Shadow Index

to Access Secure page. - httpS://www.thing.com

How do you get SMTP mail to appear in came from you corporate domain - Masquerade domain

IIS has 64mb ram 64 MB swap file and index server is running slowly so you increase the cache setting and is moves even slower.  - Because more index server is residing in the swap file you should increase the ram

3 web sites running on 1 IIS server - to limit index queries separate catalogues for the pages & incorporate the CI scope variable in the idq file

to configure a FTP page remotely enable WWW

ISAPI & CGI are not scripts but little programs

Some CGI scripts require read and write

Average reading of a local retry que length of 6 -decrease local retry variable

Index server recommended ram - less than 100000 files -32MB
    100-250 files 62-128 MB
    250-500 files 128-256 MB
    500 and above 256 MB

Multiple certificates are required when you have multiple companies or links to other web pages

Some FTP programs have problems with UNIX so use MSDOS if there is a problem

Minimum requirements for index server - same as IIS 4.0 and 4-12 meg of free disk space

Mime's are stored in the META BASE

logging of WWW with text - you want to find the number of page hits - use site server express to import

To find unfiltered docs - @unfiltered=true

If you want to administer through a fire wall - RPC Listener Port

OBDC error - unable to verify user - user does not have enough rights

Error 402 Browser does not support required encription - challenge and response is being used.

High number of not found errors on web site - HTML errors and wrong Virtual Directory Configuration

SMTP requirements NTFS TCP/IP and DNS (host to ip resolution)
