The Certidea.com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Certidea.com.
All servers on the Certidea.com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client computers run Windows
XP Professional.
Terminal Services is installed on Certidea-SV34, a member server.
After a couple of days the Certidea.com help desk is inundated with calls from users reporting unacceptably
slow response from the server.
Upon investigation you find that Certidea-SV34 has 75 disconnected sessions and 25 sessions that have
been idle for at least three hours.
You have received instruction from the CIO to configure Certidea-SV34 to fulfill the following requirements:
1.Disconnected sessions remain on the server for a maximum of 1 minute.
2.Idle sessions remain on the server for a maximum of 30 minutes.
3.Sessions idle for more than 30 minutes should automatically reset.
4.Active sessions should NOT be affected.
How will you accomplish the task?
To answer, configure the appropriate option or options in the dialog box.
Correct Answer:

By default, most of the settings in the sessions tab are configured to use the user account property settings
and several settings are grayed out.
This can be overridden by selecting the check box next to Override user settings.
When user settings are overridden, several settings are no longer grayed out; these include:
1.End a disconnected session Used to specify the amount of time a disconnected session can remain running on the Terminal Services computer.
2.Active session limit Used to specify the amount of time an actively used session can remain connected and in use.
3.Idle session limit Used to specify the amount of time an idle session can remain connected to the Terminal Services computer.
The first 'Override user settings' checkbox specifies that a session is ended when the session limit is reached or the connection is broken. That will ensure that disconnected sessions remain on the server for a maximum of one minute. You can specify the maximum time limit for a disconnected session to remain on the server by configuring the End a disconnected session' option; the maximum time limit that a user session can remain active on the server by configuring the 'Active session limit' option; and the maximum time limit for a session to remain idle by configuring the 'Idle session limit' option. This should keep idle sessions on the server for a maximum of 30 minutes and reset them automatically.
The second 'Override user settings' checkbox specifies the type of action to be taken when the session limit is reached.

You are the administrator for your company.
A file server named Server1 is running Windows Server 2003. Server1 contains a shared folder named
Apps.
All users download new software from this shared folder. Only administrators have permissions to upload
files and manage the permissions of the Apps folder.
A user named Pilar Pinilla needs to add software to subfolders in the Apps folder.
You must assign Pilar Pinilla with the permission(s) required to add new software in the Apps folder.
Pilar must not have more permissions than those that are necessary to perform this task.
Your operation must not affect any other permissions of the Apps folder. You need to perform the task by using the Apps Properties dialog box.

Correct Answer:
To answer, configure the appropriate options in the dialog box.

Read permissions are your most basic rights. They allow you to view the contents, permissions, and attributes associated with an object. If that object is a file, you can view the file, which happens to include the ability to launch the file, should it be an executable program file. If the object in question is a folder, Read permissions let you view the contents of the folder.

You create and share a folder named UserDocs on a member server. The current state of permissions for
the folder is illustrated in the dialog box.
Certidea.com users have been contacting the Help desk reporting that they receive an 'Access is denied'
error message when attempting to add or create files and folders in UserDocs.
You have received instruction from the CIO to configure the permissions on UserDocs to fulfill the following
requirements:
1.Domain users must be able to create or add files and folder.
2.Domain users must NOT be able to change NTFS permissions on the files or folders that they create or add.
