Question 1

If a user forgets his or her password when trying to logon to a Windows domain,what should you do to help?
A)look up their password in Active Directory
B)tell them to run the password reset wizard on their workstation
C)reset their password
D)delete and recreate their account

Accepted Answer

To help the user regain access to the Windows domain, the best solution is to reset their password. The other options are not practical because looking up their password in Active Directory undermines security measures, telling them to run the password reset wizard puts the burden on the user, and deleting and recreating their account is not necessary and can cause data loss.

Question 2

If you want a task to run with the highest priority option possible,which priority option should you choose in Task Manager?
A)Realtime
B)High
C)Extreme
D)AboveNormal

Accepted Answer

Realtime is the highest priority option available in Task Manager. It allocates all CPU resources to the selected task, which can cause other tasks to be unresponsive or slow down. It should only be used for critical tasks and not for everyday use.

Question 3

Which of the following can you install on Windows Server that centralizes control of network resources?
A)workgroup
B)homegroup
C)Active Directory
D)Microsoft Management Console

Accepted Answer

Active Directory is a directory service that centralizes control of network resources on Windows Server. It allows network administrators to manage users, groups, computers, and permissions within a domain. Workgroup and Homegroup are not centralized management tools, and Microsoft Management Console is a tool for creating custom administrative consoles, but it does not centralize control of network resources.

Question 4

Which of the following is virtual memory that resided on a hard disk and is configured when Linux is installed?
A)swap space
B)pagefile
C)free space
D)disk paging

Accepted Answer

Swap space is a type of virtual memory that resides on a hard disk and is configured during the Linux installation process. It allows the operating system to use the hard disk as additional memory when physical memory (RAM) is running low. Pagefile and disk paging are terms typically used in reference to virtual memory in Windows operating systems, while free space refers to unused disk space.

Question 5

On a Windows server,which of the following enables clients to access a server's desktop and run applications on the server remotely.
A)Remote Desktop Services
B)Dial-up networking
C)PPTP
D)Remote Access Services

Accepted Answer

Remote Desktop Services (formerly known as Terminal Services) allows clients to remotely access a server's desktop and run applications on that server. It provides a secure and reliable way for remote users to access resources and data on the server from anywhere, using any device. Dial-up networking, PPTP, and Remote Access Services are not directly related to remote desktop access.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

In a server-based network, resources such as files, printers, and applications are centrally managed by a server, allowing greater control and efficient sharing of resources among all users on the network.

Question 7

Which of the following is disk space that is used for virtual memory in Windows?
A)ram disk
B)memory file
C)page file
D)swap disk

Accepted Answer

The page file is a portion of the hard drive that Windows uses as if it were RAM. It is used as virtual memory and is commonly referred to as the "paging file" or "swap file" in Windows. The other options (A, B, and D) are not used for virtual memory in Windows.

Question 8

Which of the following is a Linux command for auditing system performance?
A)more
B)task manager
C)top
D)cpuinfo

Accepted Answer

The Linux command "top" is used for monitoring and auditing the system's performance. It provides real-time information about the CPU usage, memory utilization, and other system processes. "more" is used for viewing files page by page, "task manager" is a Windows command for managing running processes, and "cpuinfo" displays detailed information about the CPU.

Question 9

The du command in Linux dumps the contents of main memory to a disk file.

Accepted Answer

The du command in Linux is used to estimate file space usage. It does not dump the contents of main memory to a disk file.

Question 10

To monitor who is logged in to a UNIX/Linux systems,use the ____ command.
A)top
B)who
C)free
D)df

Accepted Answer

The "who" command is used to display information about the users who are currently logged in to the system. It can show the username, terminal device, login time, and remote host (if applicable) of each user. This command is a simple and effective way to monitor who is currently accessing the system.

Question 11

UNIX and Linux support file systems compatible with Windows operating systems.

Accepted Answer

UNIX and Linux support several file systems that are compatible with Windows, like NTFS and FAT32. This allows for easy file-sharing and compatibility between the different operating systems.

Question 12

Which Windows server installation option has a non-GUI management interface?
A)Windows Full Install
B)Windows Server Core
C)Windows Server Shell
D)Windows Command Prompt

Accepted Answer

Windows Server Core is the installation option that has a non-GUI management interface. This option only includes the command-line interface (CLI) and no graphical user interface (GUI). This makes it a more lightweight and secure option for server installations, as it reduces the attack surface and resource consumption by the operating system.

Question 13

By default,the Linux du command expresses file usage by which of the following?
A)number of total bytes
B)number of 512-byte blocks
C)number of bytes per second
D)number of disk directories

Accepted Answer

By default, the Linux du command expresses file usage by the number of 512-byte blocks. However, this can be changed using command-line arguments to display usage in other units such as bytes, kilobytes, or megabytes.

Question 14

It's important that only one person is designated as a server administrator.

Accepted Answer

Having multiple server administrators can provide redundancy, ensure continuous management, and allow for specialization in different areas, improving overall system management and security.

Question 15

Which Linux command enables you to display memory usage and monitor virtual memory usage?
A)swapstat
B)pagestat
C)ram
D)free

Accepted Answer

The "free" command displays both physical and virtual memory usage on Linux systems. The output includes details on total memory, free memory, used memory, and also the amount of swap space used.

Question 16

In which server model can the physical security used for servers vary widely from server to server and department to department?
A)hierarchical
B)decentralized
C)centralized
D)structured

Accepted Answer

In a decentralized server model, the physical security of servers can vary widely from server to server and department to department, as each department or business unit has its own servers and is responsible for their own security measures. This is in contrast to a centralized model where all servers are located in a central location and are subject to the same physical security measures. A hierarchical model typically has a centralized IT department that is responsible for the physical security of all servers, while a structured model is more of a hybrid of centralized and decentralized models.

Question 17

A ____ centralizes control of network resources into a logical grouping of user accounts,computers,printers,and network devices.
A)domain
B)server farm
C)directory
D)console

Accepted Answer

A domain is a logical grouping of network resources such as user accounts, computers, printers and network devices. It centralizes the control of these resources, making it easier to manage and secure them. In a domain, all user accounts and computers are managed centrally by a server called a domain controller. Domains are commonly used in organizations to manage their network resources efficiently. Server farm refers to a group of servers working together to provide a service, directory is a database of information about network resources, and console refers to a computer interface for managing and configuring system settings.

Question 18

You select a language to install during the initial setup process of Windows Server 2008/Server 2008 R2 when installing from a DVD. This is part of the basic configuration to ensure the installed system matches the user's language preferences.

Question 19

To ensure that you can boot to a DVD/CD-ROM drive,you may first need to configure which of the following?
A)TCP/IP
B)WDS
C)BIOS
D)Control Panel

Accepted Answer

To ensure that you can boot to a DVD/CD-ROM drive, you need to configure the BIOS settings of your computer. The BIOS controls the initial boot process, and you can set the boot order to prioritize the CD/DVD drive. TCP/IP and WDS are network protocols that are not related to booting from a DVD/CD-ROM drive. The Control Panel is a Windows utility that allows you to configure various system settings, but it does not control the boot process.

Question 20

A surge protector ensures that servers remain working when there is a brief power outage.

Accepted Answer

A surge protector is designed to protect electronic devices from voltage spikes, not to keep devices running during a power outage; that function is typically provided by an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
