 Hi everyone!

hi i am Angelina from UK. Passed easily exam, thanks to the excellent dump on site.I'm enclosing this dump. Good luck!

1. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You manage three Exchange 2000 Server computers. You discover that the registry of one of the servers is corrupt.
When you restart the server and log on, you notice that both the NetLogon and the Exchange services on that server do not start. You must repair that server’s registry so you can start the Exchange services properly.
What should you do?

A. Use Windows backup to restore the contents of the server’s Sysvol folder from the last backup.

B. Use Windows backup to restore the system state data from the last backup.

C. At a command prompt, copy the System all file to system Database in the c:\winnt\system32\config folder.

D. Restart the server by using the last known good configuration.


Answer: B
Exchange 2000 installs an updated version of Backup, which updates the system state data to include Exchange items. System state will restore the registry to the state of the last backup. D wrong as you have already logged in. C possible but fraught with danger!


2. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. A hard disk on one of the Exchange 2000 Server computers fails. The failed hard disk contained the Exchange 2000 System files. The hard disk that contained the transaction log files and Exchange databases was not affected by the failure.
You replace the failed hard disk. You need to bring the server online, but the only available does not include the system files.
What should you do?

A. Reinstall Exchange 2000 Server by running setup/DomainPrep on the server.

B. Reinstall Exchange 2000 Server by running setup/DisasterRecovery on the server.

C. Perform a normal installation of Exchange 2000 Server on the server. Create a new database that uses the same database names and paths as the original installation.

D. Perform a normal installation of Exchange 2000 Server on the server. Create a storage group that uses the same database names and paths as the original installation.



Answer: B
A is nonsense. Disaster recovery will reinstall Exchange 2000, but it will leave AD and Exchange configuration intact. C & D will install Exchange 2000, but will rewrite the AD information for Mailbox Stores etc.


3. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Users in the Exchange organization access their e-mail by using Microsoft Outlook 2000, IMAP, and HTTP. The network is configured as shown in the exhibit.



Many of your users read their e-mail from the Internet by connecting to an Exchange 2000 Server computer that is a front-end server located outside of the firewall. These remote users are using IMAP4 and HTTP in Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0 client computers.
When you run network monitor, you are able to view the HTTP and IMAP4 e-mail messages in addition, you are able to view the user names and passwords when users are reading their e-mail from the Internet.
You need to prevent unauthorized users from viewing the e-mail messages, user names, and passwords.
Which two actions should you take? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two)



A. Use the Internet services manager console to disable basic authentication for the web server that supports the HTTP users.

B. Use the Internet services manager console to configure a server’s e-mail settings for base64 encoding.

C. Use the Internet services manager console to configure a server certificate for the web server and redirect all HTTP communications to the secure web server.

D. Use the Exchange system manager console to disable authentication for the IMAP4 virtual server.

E. Use Exchange system manager console to configure a server certificate for the IMAP4 virtual server and require a secure channel.

F. Use the Exchange system manager console to explicitly deny the ANONYMOUS LOGON user the read permission.





Answer: C, E
C You need to secure communications HTTP traffic. You need to use a secure web server & install a certificate. E This will create as secure channel for IMAP traffic as well.
A If you clear Basic Authentication then ‘clear text’ User names & Passwords would not be sent - email messages still need to be encrypted B doesn’t prevent access to contents. D Stops users from connecting using IMAP. F Achieves nothing as all users authenticate themselves to get to their own mailboxes – i.e. they do not log on anonymously.




4. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You are planning for disaster recovery for your three Exchange 2000 Server computers named server 1, server2 and server 3. Each Exchange Server houses three databases. You plan to use a single backup for each storage group. You must configure the server so that the following goals are met in the event of failure:

You must be able to restore the database on server 1 and server 2 to the state that existing one-minute before the failure.
You must be able to restore all the databases on server 3 simultaneously.

What should you do?



A. Create one storage group on each server to contain the databases. Enable circular logging on server 1 and server 2. Create a full-text index for the databases on server 3.

B. Create one storage group on server 1 and server 2 to contain the databases. Create a storage group for each database on server 3. Disable circular logging on server 1 and server 3.

C. Create one storage group on server 3 to contain the databases. Create a storage group for each database on server1 and server 2. Disable circular logging on server 3.

D. Create one storage group on server 3 to contain the databases. Create a storage group for each database on server1 and server 2. Create a full-text index for the databases on server 3. Enable circular logging on server 3.



Answer: B
From Bonzo: Most dumps say C for this, however, from the question:
You must be able to restore S1 and S2 to state 1 minute before failure. Therefore they need circular logging disabled.
You must be able to restore all databases on server 3 simultaneously. You cannot do this (without a VERY big fudge) if you have just the one storage group. You need one storage group for each database.



5. You are the administrator for your company. The network includes an Exchange 2000 Server computer named svr1. Svr 1 hosts all private mailboxes and public folders. It also hosts the company web site.
Stefan, a web developer, made several configuration changes directly to the metabase on svr 1.
Stephan’s changes corrupted the metabase, and now you can’t make configuration changes to the virtual servers in the system manager. You have a backup from last night, before changes were made. You must restore the metabase to a point prior to Stefan’s changes.
What should you do?

A. In Internet services manager, perform the check server extensions task on svr 1.

B. In Windows backup, restore the contents of the Inetpub folder.

C. In Windows backup, restore the system state data.

D. Reinstall IIS on server 1.


Answer: C
See Answer to Q1 for explanation.

6. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You configure an Exchange 2000 Server computer as a recovery server for single mailbox recovery. You restore the database files from your production Exchange server’s online backup to recovery server. You specify the correct names and paths of the databases, but you are not able to mount the databases.
What should you do?

A. Run ISINTEG-patch and then mount the databases.

B. Change the transaction log file path to match the transaction log file path of the original server.

C. In system manager, select the ‘This database can be overwritten by a restore’ check box, and then mount the databases.

D. Enable circular logging on the storage group, and then restart the information store service.



Answer: C
You need to give the restored files new GUID’s. Doing this will enable you to remount the database.





7. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Users in the engineering department report that they are unable to access their e-mail messages. You find that the information store service stopped.
When you review the event logs for your Exchange 2000 Server computer, you find several-1010ESE error messages reporting hard faults when reading from the engineering mailbox store database.
You need to bring the mailbox store online without damaging the contents of the engineering mailbox store, but you need the most current data possible.
What should you do before you restart the information store service?

A. Run ISINTEG-fix on the engineering database.

B. Run ESEUTIL/G on the engineering database.

C. Remove the transaction log files, and restore the engineering database from backup.

D. Restore the engineering database from backup, but do not overwrite the transaction log files.



Answer: D
Use a different directory to restore the files, and ensure you do not overwrite the transaction logs.


8. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. A power failure causes one of the Exchange 2000 Server computers shut down abruptly.
You restore power to the Exchange server, but the hard disk that contains the transaction log files was damaged. You replace the failed hard disk, but its contents are unrecoverable.
When you restart the server, the mailbox store will not mount. You examine the header of the database, and find it to be in an inconsistent state. You back up the Exchange database files to a safe location, and now you need to bring the mailbox store online with most current data possible.
Which two actions should you take before mounting the database? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution.) Choose two.

A. Run ESEUTIL/R on the database.

B. Run ESEUTIL/P on the database.

C. Run ESEUTIL/G on the database.

D. Run ISINTEG-patch in the MDBData folder.

E. Run ISINTEG-fix on the database.



Answer: B, E



9. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. The only domain controller on your Windows 2000 network is named as server 1. The only Exchange 2000 Server computer on the network is named Server 2. Server 1 fails, and you do not have a backup of the server. You reinstall the domain controller and create
a new forest. You need to allow the users in this new forest to access the Exchange mailboxes on server2.
What should you do?

A. Run setup/DisasterRecovery on server 2, and then run the mailbox clean up agent on the mailboxes.

B. Perform a normal reinstallation of Exchange 2000 Server on Server 2. Configure the new installation to use your original database files, and then reconnect the mailboxes to the new user accounts.

C. Join server 2 to the new domain created by server 1, and then run the mailbox cleanup agent on the mailboxes.

D. Run EXMERGE against the Exchange databases, and save the output to a file. Run setup/DomainPrep on server2, and then import the EXMERGE data files Exchange.

Answer: B
Bonzo Says: Smokin said D, so do other Dumps. I say B. Forestprep must be run.
Lane A says: Answer A. Incorrect because this uses information from a previous install which is now gone
C - Incorrect--AD has no knowledge of Exchange--no forestprep or domainprep has been run
D - Incorrect--If my memory serves correctly you can only use exmerge on a mounted database. If you can get the database mounted then you would perform B

I go with B as Forest Prep must be run. Also the Q asks you to allow the new users in the forest to access Exchange - this can be done by mounting the Databases on the new installation & joining the user names to the mailboxes that you have backed up.


10. You are the Exchange Administrator for Hanson Brothers. Your production Exchange 2000 Server environment was created fresh, without an upgrade from a previous version.
You are configuring an Exchange 2000 Server computer as a recovery server for single mailbox recovery.
You create a new Windows 2000 forest, and make the recovery server the only domain controller for that forest. You create an Exchange organization and administrative group that use the same organization and administrative group names from the production environment.
You are unable to restore the database to the recovery server from an online backup.
What should you do?

A. Demote the recovery server to a member server, and add it to the existing hansonbrothers.com domain. Join the recovery server to the production Exchange Administrative group. Perform the database restore again.

B. Create a storage group and database that use the logical names from the production server. On the new database select the 'This database can be overwritten by a restore' check box.

C. Reinstall Exchange 2000 server on the recovery server by running setup/disasterrecovery. Then run ISINTEG-patch. Restart the information store service.

D. Use ASDI Edit to set the LegacyExchangeDN value of the recovery server’s administrator group to be O=Hanson Brother, OU First Administrative Group



Answer: B
AGREED in the forums. It is essential that you keep everything the same ie same system drives, directories, org name and server name. As the new Database will use a new & unique GUID, you need to enable the database to be overwritten by a restore - ie a new GUID.



11. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You have three Exchange servers 5.5 sites in your Exchange organization. The sites and connectors are configured as shown in the exhibit.



All of the server computers are currently running Windows NT 4.0. You are upgrading your Exchange servers to Exchange 2000 Server. You upgrade server 1 to Windows 2000 Server. You install Active Directory Connector on Server 1 and configure a connection agreement between Server 1 and Server 2.
You upgrade Server 2 and then Server 3 to Windows 2000 Server and Exchange 2000 Server.
After the upgrade, mailbox configuration changes made in site 2 or site3 are not visible from site 1. You must be able to view and modify the configuration of the remote sites from site 1.
What should you do?


A. Move the recipient update service from server3.

B. Create a routing group connector between server2 and server 5, and then create a routing group connector between server2 and server 6.

C. Create a new global address list on server2 that will contain all the users in the domain.

D. Create a two-way connection agreement between server 5 and server 1, and then create a two-way connection agreement between server 6 and server 1.


Answer: D
Bonzo: AGREED. Wonky wording though.
Me: For exch5.5 to coexist with exch2k, you need to create replication between AD and the 5.5 database. This is done by the site replication service (SRS). Any changes to the exch5.5 sites would not be stored in AD. You therefore need to create a two way connection agreement between the sites to replicate the information.

12. You are the administrator of the Windows 2000 network at Contoso Ltd. You have a mixed environment of Exchange server 5.5 computers and Exchange 2000 Server computers. You upgrade a computer named server 2 from Exchange server 5.5 to Exchange 2000 Server. You now have two Exchange sites configured as shown in the exhibit.


All of the Exchange servers are member servers in the contoso.com domain. You will not be upgrading server 3 or server 4 to Exchange 2000 Server in the near future. You are able to send messages between site1 and site2, but Exchange 2000 recipient property changes made in site1 are not visible in site 2.
You must configure the servers so that modifications to objects in Exchange 2000 Server are visible on server 4.
What should you do?



A. On server3, create a directory replication connector between server4 and server3.

B. On server 3, create a site connector between server 4 and server 3.

C. On server 1, create a two-way connection agreement between server 4 and server 1.

D. On server 1, create a one-way connection agreement from server 4 to server 1.

E. On server 2, create a routing group connector between server 4 and server 2.




Answer: C
Bonzo: Server 4 is Exchange 5.5. In order that Exchange 2000 changes can be seen by Exchange 5.5 a connection has to go TO Server 4, not FROM it. So C is correct.
D is therefore incorrect due to above explanation.




13. You are the support professional for your company. The network currently has no messaging software installed. The administrator for the company's Windows 2000 domain adds your account to the Domain Admins group. Group membership is now configured as shown in the following table.

Person Group membership
The Administrator Enterprise AdminsSchema AdminsDomain Admins
You Enterprise AdminsDomain Admins

You are preparing to install Windows 2000 Server on a computer named server 1 prior to installing Exchange 2000 Server. You need to prepare the Windows 2000 domain. You need to minimize the involvement of the administrator in this process.
What should you do?


A. Run DCPromo on server1.

B. Ensure that the administrator runs DCPromo on server 1.

C. Run setup/ForestPrep on a domain controller.

D. Ensure that the administrator runs setup/ForestPrep on a domain controller.

E. Ensure that the administrator runs setup/DomainPrep on a domain controller.



Answer: D
Bonzo: You need to be a member of the Schema Admins Group to run ForestPrep. The Administrator should therefore run it. You have sufficient permissions to run DomainPrep as you are a member of the Domain Admins group. ForestPrep only needs to be run once in a Forest.
Me: Domain prep once per domain. It has NOTHING to do with DC’s & even if you ran it on a DC you still need the correct group membership.

14. You are the administrator of an Exchange organization that has the Exchange 2000 Server computers. Each server supports 1,500 mailboxes. Some users are using Microsoft Outlook 2000, and some are using Outlook Web Access. Recently, you enabled SSL for the default web site on all servers and now require all Outlook Web Access users to connect by using secure HTTP. Users report that all the servers are much slower than they were before you enabled SSL. You must keep additional level of security provided by SSL, but you need to improve server responsiveness.
What should you do?

A. Install an additional Exchange 2000 Server computer to support the secure HTTP users, and configure it as a front-end server.

B. Remove SSL and implement TLS on the SMTP and IMAP4 virtual servers.

C. Install two additional Exchange 2000 Server computers, and move the outlook web access users to the new server.
D. Specify digest authentication on the default web site, and disable integrated Windows authentication.

E. Enable Windows 2000 IPSec for the network adapter that supports SQL.



Answer: A
Front end servers accept incoming connections from clients & distribute it to the appropriate Exchange server. Here, if you had an additional server purely for SSL or HTTPS connections, it would take the load off the Main Exchange server. C wrong as you cannot determine which mailboxes will be solely OWA mailboxes, and even if you knew which users were using OWA, how would you administer it if these users changed. Ie you would be moving mailboxes back and forth & so on. B is not applicable as OWA uses HTTP not SMTP or IMAP. D makes the organization less secure. E SQL?! What’s that got to do with the price of cheese?!


15. You are the Exchange Administrator for Contoso Ltd during the past six months, the company added six regional offices throughout the country. There are plans to open an additional six regional offices during the next six months.
The users at the regional offices access their mailboxes by using Microsoft Outlook Web Access. Your current environment is configured as shown in the exhibit.



You need to configure the Outlook Web Access server or servers to provide fault tolerance, the highest level of network security, and encrypted connections.
What should you do?

A. Install two front-end Exchange 2000 Server computers. Place the new server on the perimeter network. Configure load balancing between the two servers. Configure certificate servers, and create a rule on the firewall to redirect port 443 to the servers.

B. Install one front-end Exchange 2000 Server computer and continue to run Outlook Web Access on the existing Exchange server. Place the new server on the perimeter network. Configure unique URLs to connect to each server. Configure certificate servers, and create a rule on the firewall to redirect port 443 to the servers.

C. Install two Exchange 2000 Server computers. Place the new server on the perimeter network. Configure unique URLs to connect to each server. Configure certificate services on the servers. Create a rule on the firewall to redirect port 443 to the servers.

D. Install two front-end Exchange 2000 Server computers. Place the new server on the internal network. Configure load balancing between the two servers. Configure certificate services on the servers. Create a rule on the firewall to redirect port 443 to the servers.



Answer: A ( verified by smartcert .net )
Two servers provide fault tolerance, therefore B incorrect. C provides no fault tolerance as if one server down need to change settings to connect to the other one. D wrong as the idea of a front-end server is to be on the perimeter network not the internal. Process of elimination leaves A. Load balancing gives fault tolerance, and redirection of 443 (HTTPS port) connects the encrypted connections to these servers.


16. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. The hard disks on your Exchange 2000 server are configured as shown in the exhibit. Users report that the large number of documents in the Exchange public folders makes it difficult for them to find specific documents in timely manner. You need to decrease the amount of time it takes users to locate public folder documents. You need to maintain the existing response time for users accessing their e-mail messages. What should you do?

A. Create a full-text index, and place it on a new RAID-5 disk array.

B. Create a new full-text index, and place it on the existing RAID-5 disk array.

C. Create a full-text index, and place it on the mirrored set of disks that contain the transaction log files.

D. Create a new public folder directory structure. Configure a public folder for each letter of the alphabet. Place documents in the public folder based on the first letter of the filename.

E. Install a new Exchange 2000 server computer. Configure the server as a public folder server.



Answer: C
RAID 5 arrays not recommended for full text indexing this makes A & B incorrect. D - isn’t this what full text indexing was created for?! E would not do anything with out creating a full text index to provide a solution. C correct - keep the full text index away from the OS & database files.

17. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. The public folders in your organization contain more than 10,000 documents. You want to make it easier and faster for users to find specific documents.
What should you do?

A. Configure a public folder store policy, and add the public folder store to the policy.

B. Configure a public folder store policy, and create a full-text index on the public folder store.

C. Configure a public folder store policy, and set the replication for the public folder store policy to always run.

D. Create a new public folder tree, configure a public folder store policy in this tree, and then create a full text index for the public folder store.


Answer: B
Bonzo: Smokin says A, but you need a full-text index.
Me: Some say that as B does not specify that you add the public folder store to the policy it is wrong. I reckon that it’s a badly worded Microsoft question & what they want you to show is that you need to create a full text index to make searching faster.

18. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. You have a mailbox store policy for mailbox storage limits in effect for your entire Exchange organization. The policy is shown in the below.



You add a new Exchange 2000 server computer. After the server runs for a few weeks, you notice that several mailboxes are considerably over the limits that are.
You need to configure the server to enforce the limits that you set. What should you do?

A. Configure a new mailbox store policy for the new server.

B. Configure a new server policy and add the new server to this policy.

C. Set storage limits on the existing mailbox store on the new server.

D. Add the default mailbox store on the new server to the mailbox store policy.


Answer: D
The only logical explanation for this is that the mailbox store has not been associated with the policy. A would create additional admin overhead. Server policies do not apply to mailboxes, so B is incorrect. C would also incur additional admin overhead.




19. You are the Exchange administrator of your company. The company is experiencing a large amount of growth and you notice that your Exchange 2000 server computer is not responding as fast as it did in the past. You need to be able to compare that current performance to the performance of six months from now. What should you do?

A. Use task manager to monitor overall CPU usage and memory usage. Document the result once each week. Compare the information each month and track the trends.

B. Use task manager to monitor the CPU usage and memory usage for the store.exe and em/smta.exe processes. Document the result once each week. Compare the information each month and track the trends.

C. Use system monitor to create a performance log each week. Add the network usage, server work queries, and LDAP searches counters to the log. Configure the log to run for a week at a time. Compare the information each month, and track the trends.

D. Use system monitor to create a performance log each week. Add the information store services, CPU usage, and memory usage to the log. Configure the log to run for a week at a time. Compare the information each month, and track the trends.



Answer: D
Only C and D use system monitor so we can narrow the answer down to these as Task manager only provides a snapshot of system performance. So it’s really down to the counters that we need to use. Don’t need LDAP (covers all of AD not just Exchange), network usage (covers the whole network) or server work queries. The more relevant counters are CPU usage, memory and the information store. Hence D

20. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your Exchange organization contains more than 13,000 mailboxes. Users in the sales department report that the large size of the global address list makes it difficult to find other users in the sales department. All of the users in the sales department are members of a security group named Sales.
You need to allow the users to select a list of mailboxes that includes only the users in the sales department.
What should you do?

A. Create a global address list for sales department, and build a filter that displays only mailboxes that have sales in department name.

B. Create a global address list named sales department, and list the permissions on the new global address list so that only members of the sales security group can view the list.

C. Create an address list named sales department, and build a filter that displays only mailboxes that have sales in the department name.

D. Create an address list named sales department, and set the permission on the new address list so that only members of the sales security group can view the list.


Answer: C
Bonzo: Smokin said D. This is wrong. You need to build a filter. D sets permission that only the sales people can access this list, not all users and it doesn’t use a filter. D will give you a complete list of all employees, which only the sales department can see. This is of limited use. For C, it’s true that a user in the sales department may not have sales in the department field. The only way they will have Sales in the department field is if you put it there. No suitable supermarket-related analogies spring to mind, but if you look in the M$ 224 book they have a practice session where you have to create a filtered address list based on entries in the department field of the user information. The example given in the book applies to pilots and aircrew, I seem to remember.

21. You are the Exchange Administrator for Parnell Aerospace. The company recently acquired a company named Trey Research. The users from Trey Research are being migrated to the Parnell Aerospace Exchange Organization.
You want to ensure that users from Trey Research continue to receive E-mail directed to their E-mail addresses at treyresearch.com in addition to their new E-mail address at parnellareospace.com
Which two actions should you take? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two)

A. Create an additional SMTP address for Trey Research.com on the SMTP connector’s address space property sheet.

B. Create an Internet Message Format that applies to the Trey Research.com SMTP domain.

C. Create a recipient policy that appears to the Trey Research users so that it creates an additional SMTP address for each of those users.

D. Create an MX record that directs Internet mail designated for Trey Research.com to the SMTP connector.

E. Create an additional SMTP virtual server and SMTP connector on the Exchange 2000 Server computer that hosts the Trey Research users.



Answer: A, C

Bonzo: Smokin said A, D for this. A is clear. This must be done to get the mail for the Trey Research Domain. The second answer should be C or D.
When you go for C, there is a new recipient policy created for the users who need to receive mail at their Trey Research Mailbox. (AD U&S Exchange advanced SMTP address with Trey research domain) So I think it should be C.
D is wrong. The MX record should be at the Internet providers DNS. When the MX record is created at the service provider al mail for trey research is send to the IP address (your Exchange server) the MX record points at. Then your Exchange server should know where to deliver the Trey research mail. You can do this by a recipient policy.
Entering a MX record in the DNS server of your DNS doesn't make any sense.


22. You are the administrator of an Exchange 2000 Server organization that has 24,000 mailboxes in the global address list. You need to mailbox-enable a list of new accounts so that the human resources manager can send e-mail messages to these accounts immediately. You create mailboxes for these new accounts. The human resources manager reports that he can’t see the names in the global address list.
What should you do?

A. Stop and restart the system attendant service.

B. Force the recipient update service to update immediately.

C. Force Active Directory connector to update Exchange immediately.

D. From another server in the Exchange site, force the directory service to update immediately.



Answer: B
The RUS does what it says - a service for updating recipient information. It updates by all the recipients information in AD. It is by default set to always run, but you can configure a different schedule, turn it off completely or update it immediately. A - this would cause too much disruption to Exchange services. C - not relevant as exch 2k site and no mention of exch 5.5 site. D not correct - RUS needs to run immediately.


23. You are the administrator of an Exchange 2000 server computer. A user named Megan Sherman wants her assistant, John Thorson, to be able to open her mailbox and all folders in her mailbox.
Megan uses Microsoft Outlook 2000 to give John delegate access to her mailbox, but John still can’t access other folders in Megan’s mailbox.
Megan wants you to grant John complete access to her mailbox so that john can access all of her folders.
What should you do?

A. Use Outlook 2000 to configure delegate access so that John can see private items.

B. Use Outlook 2000 to configure delegate access so that John has Editor Permission.

C. Use the Active Directory users and computers console to modify Megan’s user account to set the full mailbox access permission for John’s user account to Allow.

D. Use the Active Directory users and computers console to modify Megan’s users account to set the Read permission for John’s user account to Allow.


Answer: C
Bonzo: Go to ADUK, user name-properties-Exchange Advanced-Mailbox rights (User MUST be mail enabled)


24. You are the Exchange Administrator of the Exchange 2000 Server computers. Each of theses servers contains three mailbox stores.
You created a new offline address book containing the mailbox entries that users will need when they are working remotely. Users report that they are still accessing the original official address book instead of the new offline address book.
You need to assign the new offline address book to all users. You need to perform this task with the least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?

A. Create a single server policy, and add Exchange server to that server policy.

B. Create a mailbox store policy that assign the offline address book, and add each mailbox store to this policy.

C. Modify the permissions on the new offline address book so that each Exchange server explicitly has the List object and Read properties permissions.

D. Modify each mailbox store so that it is assigned to use the new offline address book.



Answer: B
In the mailbox store policy, under the general tab you can assign which offline address book to be used for the policy. You then need to apply the policy to a mailbox store.


25. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. One of the Exchange 2000 Server computers supports five departments and 4,500 mailboxes in a single mailbox store. Recently, users in the research department requested faster access to their E-mail messages when searching for words and phrases. You enable full-text indexing, and the update interval set to Always. Users now report that response times are slow at peak times during the business day.
You need to improve the server response time, provide full-text indexing to the research department, and decrease the size of the index files.
What should you do?

A. Change the system resource usage parameter of the full-text indexing to Low

B. Install an additional physical hard disk, and move the full-text index files to this new disk

C. Create an additional mailbox store, move the research department’s mailboxes to that store, and index only that mailbox store

D. Change the update interval for full-text indexing to run during off-peak hours


Answer: C
At the moment you have set Full Text Indexing to the whole mailbox store, while it is just the research department who want to increase their search times. By moving their mailboxes to an additional store and indexing only that store, the index file will be smaller, and the impact of the index will also be less, so performance will improve.


26. You are the Exchange Administrator for an Exchange 2000 Server computer that supports 1,200 mailboxes. The server has a single RAID-5 disk array that contains a 4-GB logical drive named Drive 1 and a 32-GB logical drive named Drive 2. The server has a single storage group located on drive 2. The storage group contains three mailbox stores. The transaction log files are located on Drive 1.
Users report that it takes five seconds or more to open or send an E-mail message during normal business hour. You need to improve the responsiveness of the Exchange server.
What should you do?

A. Install a new hard disk, configure it as part of RAID-5 disk array. Create a new logical drive on the disk array, and move the mailbox stores to this new logical drive.

B. Install a new hard disk, configure it as a part of the RAID-5 disk array, create a new logical drive on the disk array, and move the transaction log files to this new logical drive on the disk array, and move the transaction log file to this new logical drive.

C. Install a new hard disk, configure it independently of the RAID-5 array, and move the transaction log files to the new hard drive.

D. Install a new hard drive, configure it independently of the RAID-5 disk array, and move one or two of the mailbox stores to the new hard disk.



Answer: C
Microsoft recommend that Transaction Logs are independent of Mailbox & Public stores, and that they are not on RAID 5 arrays. Transaction Logs work best on a Mirrored configuration. A & B are therefore incorrect because of this. D is incorrect as fault tolerance on the Mailbox stores would be reduced as would performance.



27. You are the administrator of 13 Exchange 2000 Server computers. Each server supports 800 mailboxes. Each server has Pentium II 400-Mhz processors with 256MB of RAM. The mailboxes are distributed among three storage groups that contain four mailbox stores each.
You run system monitor in size of the server throughout a typical morning. The results are shown below.


\\HONOLULU
Memory: Available Mbytes Pages/sec 4.000287.590
PhisicalDisk: % Disk Time 0 C: D:74.850
Processor: % Processor Time _Total9.000
Server: Bytes Total/sec 940422.334


You need to improve the performance of this server, but you are unable to purchase any additional hardware.
What should you do?

A. Move the mailboxes to only three mailbox stores in a single storage group. Remove the extra mailbox stores and storage groups.

B. Enable circular logging for this transaction log files on all three storage groups, and place the log files in a common directory.

C. Decrease the size of Windows 2000 paging file, and run the Exchange Performance Optimizer.

D. Create an additional storage group that contains three additional mailbox stores, and move 400 of the mailboxes to the new mailbox stores.



Answer: A
Smokin said D, this will just increase the load. It depends on the exhibit I guess...



28. You are the administrator of five Exchange 2000 Server computers. One of these servers supports 1,200 mailboxes located in two mailbox stores. The server also supports a public folder store that supports a large number of USENET newsgroups. You replicate these newsgroups once each hour. Your Microsoft Outlook 98 and Outlook 2000 users use the newsgroups. You are having problems backing up the entire server because of the size of the public folder store. Prior to installing the USENET newsfeed, the server was generating fewer than 100 transactions log files each day. Your Exchange Server is now generating as many as 950 transactions log files each day.
You need to reconfigure your public folder store so that you do not have to back up the newsgroups, but you want to continue to back up all terminal public folder data and the properties of that data in addition, you want to prevent the accumulation of transaction log files for the newsgroup data, but you want to continue the accumulation of transaction log files for the mailbox stores.
What should you do?

A. Create a new public folder store and new public folder tree. Direct the newsfeed to the new public folder tree. Enable circular logging on the mailbox storage group.

B. Create a new NNTP virtual directory that uses the NTFS file system. Direct the newsfeed to the new virtual directory.

C. Create a new storage group, and move the public folder store to the new storage group. Enable circular logging for the new storage group. Ensure that internal public folder data is replicated to another server.

D. Create a new public folder tree in the existing public folder store. Direct the newsfeed to the new public folder tree.



Answer: C
Circular logging reduces the size of the log files by discarding the old data once it has been committed to the databases. This will reduce the size of the transaction logs, though it is not good for fault tolerance. By replicating the public folder to another Exchange server, you achieve this fault tolerance. Circular logging can only be applied at Storage group level so the public folder store needs to go into a separate storage group to achieve this.

29. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. The manager of the human resources department requires owner permissions to a public folder named HR and 10 subfolders under the HR folder. The human resources manager also requires that the permissions role for the default user to be set to none on all folders to protect confidential information.
You need to perform these tasks as quickly as possible with the least amount of administrative effort. You plan to use System Manager.
What should you do?

A. Modify the permissions on the HR folder, and make no further change to the permission on the subfolders.

B. Modify the permission on the HR folder and the permissions on each subfolder.

C. Modify the permissions on the HR folder, and propagate the administrative nights to all subfolders.

D. Modify the permissions on the HR folder, and propagate the folder rights to all subfolders.



Answer: D
When you set initial permissions on a public folder, it is inherited to all subfolders. However, when you edit these permissions or add new ones it is not automatically propagated to the child folders. To do this right click the public folder and choose All Tasks-Propagate Settings.



30. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. The company is operating five new branch offices. Each branch office will have three new Exchange 2000 Server computers. In three of the branch offices, a separate member of the IT administration staff will be responsible for the Exchange servers in the branch office. For the other two branch offices, the Exchange servers will be administered remotely by the corporate IT staff at the main office.
What should you do?



A. Create five new Exchange sites. Install the Exchange servers into the appropriate offices. Assign the appropriate permissions at the site level.

B. Install all of the new Exchange servers into the existing Exchange site. Assign the appropriate permissions at the server level.

C. Create five new administrative groups. Install three Exchange servers into each new group. Run the Exchange administration delegation Wizard to assign the appropriate permissions for each administrative group.

D. Create three new administrative groups. Install three Exchange servers into each new group. Install the remaining Exchange servers in to existing administrative group. Run the Exchange administration delegation Wizard to assign the appropriate permissions for each administrative group.



Answer: D
One of the main functions of an Administrative Group is to help with administration (hence the name!). You therefore need 4 Admin groups in total. Create 3 and use the existing one for the 4th group. Then run the Delegation of control wizard to apply permissions. A & B are wrong as AD is based on logical structure not the physical structure (that’s down to sites).



31. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Users report that it takes almost three minutes for a user to open the users’ mailbox. You use task manager and system monitor on the Exchange server.
The results are shown in the Task Manager Properties exhibit and the System Monitor exhibit.
You need to decrease the amount of time that it takes users to open their mailboxes. What should you do?

A. Install more RAM on the server.

B. Double the size of the paging file on the server.

C. Install an additional CPU on the server.

D. Install an additional network adapter on the server.

E. Create a new mailbox store on the server, and move the users’ mailboxes to this store.

Answer: C
AGREED, for what its worth. Need a diagram.




32. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You need to configure Microsoft Outlook Web Access for an environment of 1,500 users who will be connecting only over the Internet. Users of client computers on the internal network will access their mailboxes only by using Outlook 2000. Your company requires a high degree of security in all network implementations.
Your current environment is configured as shown in the exhibit.



You need to make sure that the failure of a single server will not disable Outlook Web Access. The Outlook Web Access users need to have a single point of contact for the Outlook Web Access Exchange servers.
You plan to install two new Outlook Web Access Exchange servers, and then configure load balancing between these two new servers. Which type of servers should you install and configure?

A. Two front-end servers on the internal network.

B. Two front-end servers on the perimeter network.

C. Two mailbox servers on the internal network.

D. Two mailbox servers on the perimeter network.



Answer: B
Front-end servers can be set up for load balancing. These need to be set up on the perimeter network for security (in the DMZ). These servers should not have mailboxes on them; they just relay client requests to the mailbox servers. A mailbox server configuration will not provide network load balancing, nor will it provide a single point of contact.



33. You are the Exchange administrator of your company. Your network is configured as shown in the exhibit.



All of your employees connect to your Exchange 2000 server computers by using the Microsoft Outlook 2000 or Outlook Express while in the office and Outlook Web Access outside the office. You examine the Exchange 2000 log files and notice that unknown users on the Internet are using your Exchange 2000 express server computers to relay SMTP messages to users outside of your company.
You need to prevent unauthorized use of your SMTP server while still allowing all of your users to connect to your Exchange servers whether the users are in the office or out of the office. In addition, users must still be able to Exchange Internet e-mail messages with anyone.
What should you do?


A. Create a rule on the firewall to allow only the computers on the LAN to access IP addresses 192.169.1.0/24 by using port 25, port 80 and port 110.

B. Create a rule on the firewall to allow only the computers on the perimeter network to access IP address 192.168.1.0/24 by using the port 25, port 80 and port 110.

C. Configure the SMTP virtual servers to accept SMTP connections from only IP address
192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24.

D. Configure the SMTP virtual servers to accept connections from anyone and to allow relaying for only IP addresses 192.168.1.0/24.



Answer: D
Here, by allowing the virtual server to relay messages only from the internal network, unauthorized users will not be able to relay mail by SMTP. The only users that can relay mail by SMTP are the Outlook & Outlook Express client on the internal network. The virtual server needs to be able to accept connections from anyone, so users on the network an Exchange Internet mail with anyone.



34. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You create a newsfeed to a public folder. You have a limited amount of storage space on your Exchange 2000 Server computer. You want to minimize the amount of space that the newsfeed posts occupy. In the event of server failure, you plan to recover all newsfeed items from the main Internet newsfeed server located at Internet service provider. You need to be able to recover all other messages that have occurred since the last full backup.
What should you do?

A. Configure a new public folder store in a new storage group. Create the newsfeed public folder in this store. Enable circular logging for this public folder.

B. Configure a new public folder store in the existing storage group. Create the newsfeed public folder in the new public folder store. Enable circular logging for this public folder.

C. Configure a new public folder store in the existing public folder store. Configure the newsfeed to port messages to this public folder. Disable circular logging for this public folder.

D. Create a new public folder store in the existing public folder store. Create the newsfeed public folder to this store. Disable circular logging for this public folder.

E. Configure a new public folder store in the existing public folder store. Create the newsfeed public folder in the new public folder store. Disable circular logging for this public folder.



Answer: A
Very similar question to question 28. Circular logging is no good for fault tolerance, but here it says that you will get the groups back off the Internet in the event of failure.


35. You are the Exchange administrator of your company. Your network configuration is shown in the exhibit.



Users in the New York report delays when operating forms stored in the organizational forms library. You need to decrease the amount of time that it takes users in New York to open a form stored in the organizational forms library.
What should you do?

A. Upgrade the 56-Kbps connection to a T1 line, and decrease the cost property of the routing group connector to 25.

B. Upgrade the 56-kbps connection to a T1 line, and increase the cost property of the routing group connector to 75.

C. Create a public folder store on EXD2, and replicate the organizational forms library from EXD1 to EXD2.

D. Create a public folder store on EXD2, and copy the organizational forms library to a public folder in the new pubic folder store.



Answer: C
The reason NY users experience delays is the time it takes to query the Exch server in Orlando over the WAN link. If you therefore replicate the public folder store to a new store in NY, the local (NY) users would not need to use the WAN link to access the store. If you just copied it, you would need to use additional administrative time to synchronize it, hence D is wrong. A& B would speed it up, but a T1 line is still no where near as fast as a 100mbps LAN connection.


36. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your organization includes one Exchange Server 5.5 computer named server 1. You installed an Exchange 2000 Server computer named server 2 into the existing Exchange server 5.5 Organization. When you install the new server, you verify that all messages within the Exchange organization are being delivered.
Later, several users report that some of the e-mail messages that they send are not being delivered to users within the company. You find out that messages from users on server 2 are not being delivered to the users on server 1. You verify that users from both servers are able to send and receive e-mail messages.
When you attempt to examine the appropriate link queue on Server2, you receive the following error message.

X The Queue Viewer Snap-in is unable to retrieve an interface to the queues. The Queue Viewer Snap-in will be disabled until you refresh it. Check the event log and verify that the appropriate services are running.
ID no: c1036e71
Exchange System Manager

You need to ensure that all users within the company are able to send messages to and receive messages from all other users in the company.
What should you do?

A. Start the MTA Stacks service on Server2.

B. Start the POP3 service on Server2.

C. Start Active Directory Connector on server 1.

D. Start the message transfer agent on server 1.

E. Start the IMAP 4 service on server 2.



Answer: A
Basically here there is something stopping the messages from the Exchange 2k server being delivered to the Exchange 5.5 server. All messages are placed into a queue on the relevant connector, and if this stack is unavailable then the message will not be routed. You therefore need to restart the MTA stacks on server 2 (since this is the server giving the problems) to enable the messages from server 2 to server 1 to be transmitted. The message indicates that the LINK QUEUE is unavailable. The ADC is not responsible for the actual message delivery and the question implies that the message has been routed (using the ADC) and queued, but not delivered. C is therefore incorrect.




37. You are the Exchange Administrator for Just Togs. Users whose mailboxes reside on a server named EX7 report that it occasionally takes long period of time to receive their E-mail messages. You monitor the justtogs.com links queue and notice that there are sometimes as many as 30 queued messages. You need to find out whether the justtogs.com link queue is the cause of the slow delivery times. You need to make sure that Exchange Administrators are notified when the problems occur.
What should you do?

A. Configure system monitor to chart the receive queue size on the MSExchanger3 private object. Configure system monitor to send an alert when the 'receive queue size' value of the MSExchangeIMC object is greater than 30.

B. Configure the system monitor to log the local queue length on the SMTP server. Configure system monitor to send an alert when the local queue length value of the SMTP server object is greater than 30.

C. Configure the system monitor to chart the local retry queue length on the SMTP server. Add the X400 queue growth monitor to EX7. Create a notification to process a script that notifies the administrators when the Ex7 server monitor enters a warning state.

D. Configure system monitor to log the local queue length on the SMTP server. Add the X400 queue growth monitor to EX7. Create a notification to process script that notifies the administrators when the EX7 server monitor enters a critical state.



Answer: B
Using system monitor in windows 2k you can send administrative alerts when certain events occur. You need to send an alert when the SMTP queue is higher than 30. C & D are incorrect, as you are not sending any alerts. A is wrong as that is a Internet mail connector performance counter, which is not an Exchange 2k counter.


38. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You use Active Directory connector to import Exchange Server 5.5 information into Active Directory. You recently installed an Exchange 2000 Server computer name EX2 into your Exchange Server 5.5 site that consisted of a single server named EX1.
After installing EX2, you configured several public folders to be replicated to EX2 from EX1. For several weeks, the public folders replicated successfully to EX2. Now users report that the material in the public folders on EX2 is out dated.
You view the services on EX1 and EX2 as shown in the services on EX1 exhibit and the services on EX2 exhibit, and verify the replication schedule, as shown in the Replication Properties exhibit.
Services on Ex1 Exhibit:
SERVICE STATUS
Active Directory Connector Notshown (that means stopped)
Exchange Directory Started
Exchange event service Started
Exchange information store Started
Exchange Internet mail Service Started
Exchange Message Transfer Agent Started
Exchange System Attendant Started

Replication Properties exhibit:



You need to ensure that the public folders replicate properly again. What should you do?

A. Change the replication interval to every two hours.

B. Start ADC on EX1.

C. Start the MTA Stacks service on EX2.

D. Start the site replication service on EX2.

E. Set the replication message priority to Urgent.

F. Set the replication message priority to Normal.


Answer: B
Bonzo: I've seen D given for this one also. It all depends on the exhibit.
SRS replicates directory information with earlier versions of Exchange Server.
ADC synchronizes the A.D with the SRS. Windows 2000 does provide a basic
ADC version, for Exchange Server 5.5 support.

39. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your network is configured as shown in the network diagram exhibit.



A user named Susanne is unable to connect to the Exchange 2000 Server computer. You verify that Susanne is able to browse the Internet, but she is unable to log on to the Windows 2000 domain controller.
The TCP/IP properties exhibit.



You need to configure Susanne’s computer so that it can connect to the Exchange 2000 Server computer.
What should you do?

A. Change the IP address for the preferred DNS server to 10.10.10.5

B. Change the IP address of the alternate DNS server to 10.10.10.5

C. Change the IP address of Susanne’s computer to 192.168.1.201

D. Change the default gateway to 192.168.1.254

E. Change the default gateway to 192.168.1.1



Answer: A
This is a networking question, not an Exchange 2k one. The DNS server should be on the same subnet as the users computer in order to optimize lookups and to avoid lookups using the slow WAN link.


40. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You have one Exchange 2000 Server computer located at the main office and one located at a branch office. The offices are connected by WAN. The WAN link is heavily utilized during business hours, and you need to reduce the impact that e-mail messages larger than 5MB impose during this time?
What should you do?

A. Configure the routing group connector to set a different delivery time for messages larger than 5KB, and schedule the connection time for those messages during non-business hours.

B. Create a second routing group connector. Configure the second routing group connector to set a different delivery time for messages larger than 5KB, and schedule the connection time for those message during non-business hours.

C. Configure the message transfer agent for a maximum message size limit of 5-KB.

D. Configure the routing group connector to use a custom connector time schedule that allows connection only during non-business hours.

E. Configure the default SMTP virtual server on the branch office server to limit message size delivery to 5KB.



Answer: B
Bonzo says: I used to think this was A. But you are REDUCING the impact. That implies that messages greater than 5Mb can still get sent. Ok, what you want to do is reduce the impact of 5Mb files. Note it does not say you want to eliminate 5Mb files. It says you want to reduce their impact.
If you do A, then no 5Mb files at all will get sent during office hours. As a means of reduction, that’s a bit terminal.
So what is the difference between A and B?
In B, you have one connector preventing 5Mb files. So only the small files will get sent and they won't get blocked by any big files.
But you also have another connector. This allows big files through. Small files can come through here or the other connector.
So the impact of the large files is reduced. If a large file is hogging the first connector the small file can use the second.

If you want an analogy, imagine a supermarket with a single till. Every day I buy a single sandwich here but wait ages in a queue because somebody doing a weekly shop is in front of me. One day, they open up a new 5-items-or-less till and now I can buy my sandwich quickly. The person doing their weekly shop can also buy their goods, but not in MY line. My wait has been reduced, and my sandwich is just that little bit fresher.

Me: The above description is the best analogy I have ever heard! Cheers Bonzo!


41. You are the Exchange Administrator for an international company. You have Exchange 2000 Server computers located in 15 countries worldwide. You create a routing group for each country and a routing group connector between each country and the routing group for your main office.
The networks in three of these countries are configured with 56-Kbps connections to your WAN. The networks in the other 12 countries have faster connections. You select several public folders and configure them to replicate to the Exchange servers in each of these three countries.
You need to configure the public folder replication to occur during non-business hours during those three countries. You also need to prevent the users in these three countries from accessing public folders that have not been replicated to the Exchange servers located in their country.
What should you do?

A. Configure the replication interval for the selected public folders to always run. Configure the connection time for the routing group connectors for each of the three countries and the main office to occur at midnight.

B. Configure the replication interval for the selected public folders to run at midnight. Configure the routing group connector for each of three countries to disallow public folder referrals.

C. Configure the replication interval for the selected public folder to run at midnight. Configure the routing group connector for the main office to disallow public folder referrals.

D. Configure the connection time for the routing group connectors for each of the three countries and the main office to occur at mid night. Set the routing group connector cost to 1.

E. Configure the connection time for the routing group connectors for each of the three countries and the main office to occur at mid night. Set the routing group connector cost to 100.



Answer: B
By setting the replication to run at midnight you ensure that replication of the public folders occurs outside business hours. Each connector has under the general tab an option to disallow public folder referrals. This will stop users from viewing these folders, hence they can only view their local copy, once replicated they can view the new information there.




42. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your employees are network consultants who are usually work at various customers’ locations throughout the country. Each network consultant uses a portable computer issued by the company. The network consultants need access to only their e-mail whether they are in the corporate headquarters or at a customer location.
You need to provide remote e-mail services to the network consultants. You want to perform this task with the least amount of configuration of the portable computers. What should you do?

A. Install a new remote access server at the corporate headquarters. Install a toll-free telephone line for remote dial-up connections. Configure the portable computers for dial-up networking. Configure Microsoft Outlook 2000 as the messaging client software on the portable computers.

B. Install a new remote access server at the corporate headquarters. Install a toll-free telephone line for remote dial-up connections. Configure the portable computers for dial-up networking. Configure Microsoft Outlook 2000 as mail client on POP on the headquarters computers.

C. Subscribe to a nationwide Internet service for the network consultants. Install a new Exchange 2000 Server computer as a front-end Microsoft Outlook Web Access server at the corporate headquarters. Configure the server to have certificate services. Allow port 443 into the front-tree server from the Internet.

D. Subscribe to a nationwide Internet service for the network consultants. Install a new Exchange 2000 Server computer as a front-end Microsoft Outlook Web Access server at the corporate headquarters. Allow port 25 and port 110 into the front-tree server from the Internet. Configure Microsoft Outlook Express as a POP mail client on the portable computer.

E. Subscribe to a nationwide Internet service for the network consultants. Install a new Exchange 2000 Server computer as a front-end Microsoft Outlook Web Access server at the corporate headquarters. Allow port 25 and port 143 into the new front-tree server from the Internet. Configure Microsoft Outlook Express as a IMAP client on the portable computer.



Answer: C
You need to enable the workers to use OWA access their home servers. By installing Cert services on these and enabling port 443 you enable them to securely log on to these back end servers.



43. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company and you work at the corporate headquarters. Your network is configured as shown in the exhibit.(below)
The local telephone company is performing maintenance on the communication lines in your area, and you are experiencing difficulties with the WAN connection between corporate headquarters and the remote office. You need to be notified when e-mail delivery between the two offices is interrupted.
What should you do?


A. Use system manager to add the SMTP queue growth monitor is the status properties of Exch1.

B. Use system manager to add the SMTP queue growth monitor is the status properties of Exch3. Set the critical state to five minutes.

C. Create an e-mail notification monitor for Exch1. Configure the e-mail notification to send an e-mail message to your mailbox when the routing group connector for RG1 enters a down state.

D. Create an e-mail notification and set Exch2 to monitor Exth1. Configure the e-mail notification to send an e-mail message to your mailbox when exth1 enters a critical state.





Answer: C
Bonzo: Smokin said D for this one. This is an old chestnut. Fully set up an e-mail notification for the connector and you will see that it is C. It looks like D to start with, but if you go through the whole process you will see that it can only be C.




44. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your network is configured as shown in the exhibit.



You need to configure your network to allow users from the Internet to securely connect to their mailboxes by using Microsoft outlook web access.
What should you do?

A. Move the outlook web access server to the outside of the firewall. Configure the firewall to allow port 443 on the outlook web access server to communicate with the Exchange 2000 Server computer on the internal network.

B. Move the outlook web access server to the internal network. Configure the firewall to allow port 110 and port 119 from any computer on the Internet to communicate with the Exchange 2000 Server computer on the internal network.

C. Configure the firewall to allow any computer on the Internet to communicate with the outlook web access server on the perimeter network by using port 80 and port 25.

D. Configure the firewall to allow any computer on the Internet to communicate with the outlook web access server on the perimeter network by using port 443.



Answer: D
Port 443 is for secure socket layers SSL. You need to configure the OWA server as a front-end server to forward requests to the Exchange server in the internal network. This would be done using SSL to ensure none of the data or usernames/passwords are sent in clear text over the Internet. You would never move it to the outside of the firewall as this would leave it open to all sorts of attacks.


45. You are the Exchange Administrator at Axesome computers. An employee named Anita reports that she has problems when sending e-mail messages containing attachments to Bruno at Wheeler Copies. Bruno has told Anita that Wheeler Copies uses an older e-mail system, and there is a long series of random numbers and letters at the end or Anita’s e-mail message.
You need to configure the Exchange 2000 Server computers at Axesome Computers to deliver attachments properly to the wheelercopies.com domain.
What should you do?

A. Configure a new POP3 virtual server. Set the message format to use Exchange rich-text format.
Modify the connection control value to allow access from only the wheelercopies.com domain.

B. Configure the new IMAP4 virtual server. Change the MIME message encoding to provide the message body as plan text. Modify the connection control value to allow access from only the wheelercopies.com domain.

C. Create a new Internet message format for the wheelercopies.com domain. Configure the domain message encoding to use Unicode. Disable BinHex for Macintosh.

D. Create a new Internet message format for the wheelercopies.com domain. Configure the domain message encoding to use MIME. Set the MIME character set to Unicode.



Answer: C
Unicode is compatible with all email clients, so by disabling BinHex and enabling Unicode for the messages to wheelercopies.com that will solve the problem.



46. You are the administrator of your company’s Exchange organization, users report that new mailboxes and contents are not appearing in the global address list or other address lists. You create a new mailbox and discover that it takes nearly four hours for the new mailbox to appear on the global address list.
You want new objects to appear in the address list within one hour.
What should you do?

A. Configure the recipient update service to run once each hour.

B. Create an additional recipient update service on all the Exchange servers in the domain.

C. Specify a custom schedule for the maintenance interval for the mailbox so that mailbox store maintenance runs once each hour.

D. Adjust the index update interval for the mailbox store so that indexing always run.



Answer: A
The RUS does what it says on the tin - It is a service for updating recipient information. If you configure it explicitly to update once an hour, all recipient information will be updated (address lists etc.). C & D are nonsense, and B is unnecessary and would create additional admin overhead - which we don’t want to do, as life as an administrator in a Micro$oft exam environment is hard enough!


47. You are the administrator of an Exchange 2000 server computer and support 2,400 mailboxes. The mailboxes are distributed among three mailbox stores that are located in a single storage group. The server is configured as shown in the exhibit.


Users report that it takes up to 10 seconds to send an e-mail message during peak times of the business day. You need to optimize the responsiveness of the Exchange server.
What should you do?

A. Move one of the mailboxes stores from disk 3 to disk 5.

B. Set the full-text to always run for all three mailbox stores.

C. Create a new mailbox store in a new storage group on disk 5 and place the new transaction log file on disk 2. Move 1,200 of the mailboxes to this new mailbox store.

D. Create a new mailbox store, and place the mailbox store files on disk 5. Move 1,200 of the mailboxes to this new mailbox store.


Answer: A
Bonzo: AGREED. (Diagram would help though. :)
Me: Bonzo Look up above!! Answer ‘A’ halves the amount of data on disc 3 and uses the unused disc 5. B would make problem worse, C & D would help balance the load, but not as efficiently as Answer A.


48. You are the administrator of an Exchange 2000 Server organization that has more than 50,000 mailboxes. Managers report that it is difficult to search the global address list to find all the users in only their departments. Each manager wants to be able to display only the mailboxes in the manager’s own department. The managers want these lists to be available only to the members of the managers group.
What should you do?

A. Create a global address list for each department, and list the members of that department. Grant the managers group the read permission to the global address list, and remove the read permission from the authenticated users group.

B. Create a global address list for each department, and limit the scope of each global address list to only the members of that department. Grant the managers group the read permission to the global address list, and deny the authenticated users group the read permission.

C. Create an address list for each department, and limit the scope of each address list to only the members of that department. Grant the managers group the read permission to the address list, and remove the read permission from the authenticated users group.

D. Create an Organizational Unit (OU) for each department, and move the users from the departments into their respective OUs. Grant the managers group read permission to the OU, and deny the authenticated users group the read permission.



Answer: C
Removing the Authenticated Users Group and adding the Managers Group gives only the managers read access for the list. Using a filter on the list will enable only the relevant people visible to the address list. Outlook 2000 can only work with one Global Address list so A & B are wrong and D would alter the whole structure of the organization, which is not where the question is coming from.





49. You are the network administrator for Contoso Ltd. The company hires a consultant named Amy Jones from Litware Inc. Amy requires access to your network. She prefers to receive all of her e-mail at her ajones@litware.com address.
You want Amy’s name to appear in the Exchange address book, but you want e-mail messages to be sent only at her litware.com address.
What should you do?

A. Create a user account that has an Exchange mailbox in active directory. Change the SMTP address on the e-mail address tab to the user property sheet to the ajones@litware.com.

B. Create an e-mail enabled contact object for Amy Jones and specify the SMTP address ajones@litware.com as the e-mail address in active directory.

C. Create a user account that does not have an Exchange mailbox in active directory. Use Exchange task wizard to assign an SMTP address for ajones@litware.com

D. Create a user account that does not have an Exchange mailbox in active directory. Enter ajones@litware.com as the e-mail address on the General tab of the user property sheet.



Answer: C
BONZO: Smokin has B for this. A contact will not do. Amy requires access to the network. Create a mail-enabled user account, as described in C.



50. You are the new Exchange Administrator of your company's Exchange 2000 Server computer. The server supports two storage groups. Each storage group contains four mailbox stores. Each of these mailbox stores is allocated to a single department. All storage limits are assigned by using a single Mailbox Store Policy. The limits for the engineering department mailbox store properties are shown in the exhibit.


You need to increase the mailbox storage limits for users in engineering department.
What should you do to change the limits of the engineering department’s mailbox store?

A. Create a new mailbox store policy that specifies the increased storage limits, and assign that policy to the engineering department’s mailbox store.

B. Assign your user account Full control permission to the server policy that affects your Exchange server, and then change the mailbox storage limits.

C. Use the Active Directory users and computers console to modify the mailbox storage limits on each of the mailboxes.

D. Change the mailbox storage limits on the existing Mailbox Store Policy to specify the increased storage limits for the engineering mailbox store.



Answer: A
The Properties are grayed out showing you that there is a policy inhibiting you from changing this. If you create a new policy & assign it to the engineering store only, you can get the desired effect.


51. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You are in the process of moving a group of 200 mailboxes from a mailbox store in one storage group to a new store in a newly created storage group. Each of these mailboxes uses less than 45MB of disk space. The new mailbox store volume has 20GB of available disk space, and the new storage group’s transaction log volume has 2GB of available disk space.
During the process of moving the mailboxes, the destination mailbox store dismounts and the process stops. What should you do to move the mailboxes successfully?

A. Select a smaller group of mailboxes to move to the new mailbox store.

B. Delete the full-text index files, and disable indexing until all the mailboxes are moved.

C. Move fewer than 50 mailboxes at a time, and perform a differential backup after moving each group of mailboxes.

D. Enable circular logging for the storage group that contains the destination database until all of the mailboxes are moved.



Answer: D
Lovely question about Circular logging. Here the new transaction log volume has filled up, used a reserve log to commit the current entry to the database and then sent an error. If you enable circular logging this will allow a log entry to be overwritten once it has been committed to the database. This will use less space obviously than keeping the whole log, so D is correct. A & C would still cause the logs to be too large i.e. 200 mailboxes x 45mb = 9000 Mb (or 8.8 Gb) of space needed. B is totally irrelevant.




52. You are the administrator of seven Exchange 2000 server computers. Each server supports 1,800 mailboxes. Each server’s mailboxes are distributed among five mailbox stores that are located in two storage groups. All mailbox store settings are configured at the default values. Tape backups on all servers occur between 4 A.M and 7 A.M.
Users on the night shift report that sending and operating messages often takes several seconds between 1A.M and 2:30 A.M. Response times are acceptable at other times. You need to improve the response times between 1 A.M and 2:30 A.M.
What should you do?




A. Configure full-text indexing to use a lower amount of system resources.

B. Schedule the tape backups to back up each of the mailbox stores at different times across a wider period of time.

C. Configure the warning interval of each of the mailbox stores so that warnings run on a custom schedule.

D. Configure the maintenance interval of each of the mailboxes stores so that maintenance is staggered across a wider period of time.



Answer: D
Key to this question is knowing what the default settings for the mailboxes are; an online defrag occurs every day between 1AM & 5AM by default. This is obviously causing the problems, so by setting a different more staggered time for this to occur should solve the problem. As it is using the default values, A is incorrect as the full text index is set to ‘never run’, the tape backups don’t start until 4AM so this is not the problem (hence c wrong), and the default time when warnings are generated is daily at 12AM for 15 minutes, hence C wrong.



53. Your company installs Exchange 2000 server as a part a planned migration of all mailboxes from Exchange Server 5.5 to Exchange 2000 Server. You need to implement instant messaging between the managers and their assistants as soon as possible.
You install the instant messaging server and create an RVP virtual server on the Exchange 2000 server computer, but you are not ready to migrate the mailboxes to Exchange 2000 server.
What should you do to enable instant messaging for the managers and their assistants?

A. Install the Internet Locator Service (ILS) on the Exchange server 5.5 computers that have the mailboxes of the managers and their assistants. Use Exchange administrator to configure the ILS parameters for each of these mailboxes to point to Exchange server 5.5 ILS server.

B. Use the active directory users and computers console to move the mailboxes of the managers and their assistants from the Exchange server 5.5computers to the Exchange 2000 Server computers.

C. Use the active directory users and computers console to enable instant messaging for the managers and their assistants. Specify the Exchange 2000 Server computer as the instant messaging home server.

D. Install the Chat service on an Exchange server 5.5 computer. Use the active Directory users and computers console to specify this Exchange server 5.5 computer as the Internet locator service ILS server.



Answer: C
Here the Red Herring is the bit about Exchange 5.5. All you need to do is enable instant messaging from within the user properties in ADUC, and as you have already set up a virtual RVP (rendezvous protocol) server that is used or instant messaging on the Exchange 2000 server. Then specify this as the users instant messaging server & hey presto! they can talk in real time to each other.



54. You are the administrator of an Exchange 2000 Server computer that supports 650 mailboxes. When you originally configured the server, you implemented a mailbox store policy to restrict the amount of mailbox storage for each user.
Recently, you created an additional mailbox store and moved 300 mailboxes to the new mailbox store. You notice that many of the mailboxes on the new mailbox are now over the limit that you set on the original mailbox store policy. You need to enforce the limits in the mailbox store policy, and you need to perform this task with the least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?

A. Create a new mailbox store policy that affects the new mailbox store.

B. Modify the storage limit settings on the new mailbox store to match the mailbox store policy.

C. Add the new mailbox store to the Mailbox Store Policy.

D. Create a server policy that affects both mailbox stores.



Answer: C
Before a policy will affect any object, the object needs to be applied to the policy. In this instance the mailbox store needs to be added specifically to the policy in order to enforce it.



55. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. You are setting up a new Exchange 2000 server environment to support 10,000 IMAP users.
You are adding 12 new server computers to your company's network. You need to configure the Exchange environment for standardized client configuration. You do not want the user mailbox servers to perform authentication.
What should you do?


A. Install four Windows 2000 domain controllers. Install eight Exchange 2000 mailbox member servers. Configure load balancing among the Exchange servers.

B. Install 12 Windows 2000 domain controllers. Install Exchange 2000 server on six of these domain controllers. Configure load balancing among the Exchange servers.

C. Install six Windows 2000 domain controllers. Install Exchange 2000 server on two of these domain controllers and configure them as front-end servers. Install the Exchange 2000 mailbox member servers. Configure load balancing between the Exchange front-end servers.

D. Install 2 Windows 2000 Domain Controllers. Install 6 Exchange 2000 mailbox servers. Install 4 Windows 2000 Front End Servers and configure load balancing on the Front End servers.


Answer: D
BONZO: Verified
Me: This has been argued about a lot & D is correct. Here’s why:
You need 2 DC’s for fault tolerance, and these should not be used as front-end or mailbox servers. If you install 6 Exchange Server mailbox servers to spread the load of the mail, it is desirable that these are accessed as one. This can be done by configuring the remaining 4 servers as front-end servers and configuring load balancing on these to spread the load and for fault tolerance.



56. You are the Exchange administrator of Miller textiles. Eric, the manager of human resources wants potential job candidates to send their resumes to jobs@millertextiles.com. Eric wants to prevent employees in other departments from being able to view these messages. Eric creates a Microsoft outlook public folder named Job_Enquires. You need to configure the job enquiries folder to accept e-mail messages from job candidates.
Which two actions should you take? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two)


A. Enable anonymous access for the job inquiries folder.

B. Change the name of the job enquiries folder in the address list to jobs@millertextiles.com

C. Change the SMTP address of the job enquiries folder to jobs@millertextiles.com

D. Make the job enquiries folder visible in the address list.

E. Change the permissions role for the default user to contributor.


Answer: C, E
Since by default a public folder is mail enabled with its name@domain.com, you need to change the default SMTP address to jobs@millertextiles.com to give it the correct mailing address. Everyone gets author rights by default on a public folder, you need to change it to contributor, which makes the folder visible, but not the contents to users.

57. You are the Exchange administrator of your company. Users report that each time one of them sends an e-mail message to a large distribution group of external addresses, the message is not delivered and the sender receives a non delivery report (NDR). You verify that messages sent to small external distribution groups and single external users are being delivered.
You need to configure the server to allow messages to be delivered.
What should you do?

A. Use the active directory users and computer console to change the message size limits on the distribution group.

B. Use the active directory users and computers console to change the message restrictions on the distribution group.

C. Increase the maximum number of connections on the SMTP virtual server.

D. Increase the maximum number of recipients on the SMTP virtual server.


Answer: D
Answer A is to determine the message sizes a distribution group can send NOT receive. B is wrong as you can only limit who can send a group messages not the size of the message to the group. C is wrong as this is due to the concurrent connections on the SMTP server (I could be wrong but I think all that will happen is that it will queue unsent messages until there is a free connection). Hence D is correct, as you can obviously send to a smaller number of recipients, so you need to increase the maximum amount of recipients that the SMTP server can send to in one hit.



58. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. Users report that it takes longer time to open their mailboxes than it did in the past. You view the task manager information on the Exchange 2000 server computer. The results are shown in the Task Manager: Processes exhibit and the Task Manager: Performance exhibit.

Process exhibit shows:(amongst other things)

Process Name I/O Reads I/O Writes
Store.exe 63,652 132,688

The Performance exhibit shows:(amongst other things)
Processor Utilization of 40%

You need to decrease the amount of time it takes users to open their mailboxes. What should you do?

A. Install an additional network adapter on the server.

B. Move the mailbox store to a hardware RAID-5 disk array.

C. Install an additional CPU on the server.

D. Install more RAM on the server.



Answer: B
BONZO: Smokin said A. Depends on the exhibit I guess.
Me: I go with Bonzo in B. The CPU utilization is not that high (over 85% is excessive) so C is out. There doesn’t seem to be a memory shortage so D is out. I don’t think that a network adapter could affect I/O read/writes as dramatically as a RAID 5 Configuration. But check it out - it’s your £125 for the exam!


59. You are the Exchange administrator of your company. Your company recently acquired another company. The acquired company has an existing e-mail system that you will not be migrating. You plan to add servers to your Exchange 2000 server organization to accommodate all the employees of acquired company. You need to configure the new servers so that the acquired company's network administrators can administer the new Exchange servers. You want to prevent these administrators from administering the existing Exchange servers.
What should you do?

A. Create a new Exchange site. Install the new servers into the site. Set the appropriate permissions at the organization and site level.

B. Install the new servers into the existing Exchange site. Set the appropriate permissions at the server level.

C. Create a new administrative group. Install the new servers into the group. Run the Exchange administration delegation wizard to assign the appropriate permissions.

D. Install the new servers into the existing administrative group. Run the Exchange administration delegation wizard to assign the appropriate permissions.



Answer: C
An administrative group is just for that - Delegating Administration. Use the delegate wizard to easily apply the appropriate permissions to the group of servers. A & B really concern us with exchange 5.5 organizations not exchange 2k. D adds administrative overhead and Administrative groups were created just for the purpose of this question.



60. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. Your Exchange server is becoming extremely slow on available hard disk space. Based on the current rate of growth you expect your server to run out of storage space in two months.
The executives in your organization typically send very large attachments with the e-mail messages. The other users on your organization typically do not send attachments larger than 1MB.

You want to accomplish the following goals:

• The executives must have unrestricted message storage space on the Exchange server.

• All employees other than executives must be limited to 50MB of storage space for messages on the Exchange server.

• A separate set of transaction log files must be created for the executives.

• The executives must be able to have access to e-mail prior to other employees if Exchange server needs to be restored.

• The Exchange server must not run out of hard disk space.

You take the following actions:

Create a new storage group.
Create a new monitor store in the new storage group.
Move the mailboxes of all the executives to the new mailbox store.
On the existing mailbox store, set a maximum storage limit of 50MB.

What result or results do these actions produce? (Choose all that apply)

A. The executives have unrestricted message storage space on the Exchange server.

B. All employees other than executives are limited to 50MB of storage space for messages on the Exchange server.

C. A separate set of transaction log files is created for the executives.

D. The executives can have access to e-mail prior to other employees of Exchange server needs to be restored.

E. The Exchange server will not run out of hard disk space.



Answer: A, B, C, D
Bonzo: Smokin had E as well. But you only limit the existing mailbox store. Executives still have unlimited access, so E is out. In my personal experience, Executives are also the most likely to fill up their mail with crap anyway, so E is a definite no no!


61. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. The company has three Windows 2000 server computers on the network. One server is configured as the Exchange 2000 member server. The remaining two servers are dedicated Windows 2000 domain controllers. The company hires 50 new employees each month. The rate is expected to double within the next six months. You need to ensure that the Exchange environment can handle the anticipated growth without affecting performance for users.
What should you do?

A. Install Exchange 2000 server on both of the Windows 2000 domain controllers. Configure these servers as mailbox servers.

B. Install Exchange 2000 server on a new Windows 2000 server computer. Configure this server as mailbox server.

C. Install Exchange 2000 server on a new Windows 2000 server computer. Configure this server as a dedicated SMTP virtual server.

D. Install Exchange 2000 server on two new Windows 2000 server computers. Configure these servers as front server, and configure load balancing.


Answer: B
BONZO: A is wrong because Microsoft recommends against configuring DC with mailboxes. Performance issues and security reasons
C is wrong because SMTP will not help with the load balancing of Exchange mailboxes.
B The primary concern here is, in my view, the anticipated growth in the size of the mailboxes. Whether you've got a load balanced front-end or not, you'll still need to accommodate the increasing size of mailboxes data, so you'll need a mailbox server.
D see above
Hence the answer B.

62. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. The company uses the monitoring and notification features of Exchange 2000 Server. You are managing messages in the queues. During this time, you disable all connections to the default SMTP virtual server on a server named EX2. You estimate that the connections will be disabled for a period of one hour.
You need to prevent your other Exchange 2000 Server computers from sending any notifications regarding EX2 during this period. You need to perform this task with a least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?

A. Remove Ex2 from all of the notifications until the connections have been enabled.

B. Remove EX2 from all server monitors until connections have been enabled.

C. Disable all monitoring on EX2 until the connections have been enabled.

D. Set the normal poling interval on the server monitor to one hour until the connection has been enabled.


Answer: C
This is a simple un-checking of a box. This requires least administrative effort (Micro$oft love that), and will stop any notifications about EX2 being sent.

63. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your network is configured as shown in the exhibit.



You need to configure your network to show users to connect to their mailboxes by using Microsoft Outlook web Access. What should you do?

A. Configure the firewall to allow port 80 of the outlook web access server to communicate with port 80 of the Exchange 2000 Server computer.

B. Configure the firewall to allow port 443 of the outlook web access server to communicate with port 443 of the Exchange 2000 Server computer.

C. Move the outlook web access server to the perimeter network, and change the IP address of the server 10.10.1.15. Reinstall Exchange 2000 Server and configure the computer as a front-end server. Configure the firewall to allow port 443 into the front-end server from the Internet.

D. Move the outlook web access server to the perimeter network, and change the IP address of the server to 10.10.10.15. Configure the outlook web access server as a front-end server. Configure the firewall to allow port 443 into the front-end server from the Internet.



Answer: D

The Front-End server should be placed behind the firewall on the perimeter network. It will then need its IP address changed to be on the same network as the other computers. Port 443 is the SSL port, which needs to be enabled from the firewall if this front-end server is to be accessed from the Internet. B is wrong as the OWA front-end server does not communicate with the Exchange 2k server using port 443 - this is used so users can safely (i.e. their passwords & usernames will not be sent in clear text) communicate with the front-end server. C is nonsense!



64. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You recently implemented instant messaging. Some users report that they are unable to logon to the instant messaging server. You verify that you can log on to the server and communicate with other users on the network. You need to configure your network to allow all users to log on to the instant messaging server.
What should you do?

A. Use system manager to change the permissions on the instant messaging protocol. Grant the Everyone group read permission.

B. Use system manager to change the permissions on the instant messaging protocol. Grant the user who are unable to log on the execute permission.

C. Use the Active Directory users and computers console to select the users who are unable to log on. Run Exchange task wizard and enable instant messaging.

D. Use the Active Directory users and computers console to select the users who are unable to log on. Change the protocol settings for these users.



Answer: C
The Instant Messaging server is configured with the exchange manager, but the actual users have to be authorized in AD. To do this you need to use the ADUC console and enable instant messaging.




65. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your Exchange environment consists of an Exchange 2000 Server computer named EX1 and an Exchange Server 5.5 computer named EX2, Ex1 and Ex2 reside in separate routing groups.
You install Microsoft mail connector on Ex1 and Ex1 is connected to a single Microsoft Mail Post Office named MAIL1. A user reports that Microsoft Mail users are not receiving E-mail messages sent by Exchange users. You use system manager to gather the information shown in the exhibit. Exhibit shows:

Exchange System manager
AdministrativeGroups-1stAdmingroup-Servers-EX1-Protocols-X.400-Queues-Connecter for M$ Mail(EX1).
Right hand pane shows 9 messages in the queue.
What should you do to resolve this problem?

A. Enable the mail dispatch MTA option on the connector for MS mail (EX1). Stop and restart the Microsoft mail connector interchange service on EX1.

B. Select the connector for MS Mail (EX1) queue on EX1, and delete the most recent message.

C. Disable the mailer MTA option for the connector for MS mail (Ex1). Stop and restart the Microsoft mail connector interchange service on EX2.

D. Delete the existing Microsoft mail address space for MAIL1, and then re-create it. Set the connector scope for the entire organization.


Answer: A
The Message Transfer Agent is responsible for delivering the messages via SMTP and the Microsoft Mail Connector. The MTA then places them in a queue, ready for the connector to transmit the message using the Microsoft Mail Connector Interchange Service. As there are messages in the queue it is clear that something is up with the connector, as these messages are not being passed from the MTA. A stop and a restart of services in Win2k often solves problems, so if you restart the Microsoft Mail Connector Interchange Service (the service responsible for the connector), the mail should be sent.

66. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. The company has many branch offices located throughout the country. The server at each branch office forms a routing group. You have a group of Exchange 2000 Server computers that create an E-mail backbone for routing messages in the company.
Each server in this group is dedicated to a region as shown in the exhibit.

The routing groups for each branch office are connected to the appropriate regional backbones routing group in order to send messages throughout the organization.
The company recently opened a new branch office in the north region. The Exchange 2000 Server computer for the new branch office is named EX4. You must configure the routing group connector to ensure e-mail delivery during a single server failure in the first routing group. You also need to decrease the number of WAN connections that are used to deliver E-mail messages between branch offices in the same region.
What should you do?

A. From the first routing group create a routing group connector that connects to the new routing group. Select Ex1 as the local bridgehead server and Ex4 as the remote bridgehead server.

B. From the first routing group create a routing group connector that connects to the new routing group. Select Ex1 and Ex2 as the local bridgehead server and Ex4 as the remote bridgehead server.

C. From the new routing group create a routing group connector that connects to each of four backbone routing groups. Select the appropriate remote bridgehead server for each backbone routing group.

D. From each of the backbone routing groups, create a routing group connector to the new routing group. Select EX4 as the remote bridgehead server.



Answer: B
Confusing one this. The exhibit helps though. You need to be able to send messages during single server failure. A Routing Group Connector can have more than one Bridgehead server defined. B is the only answer that gives you this fault tolerance. You also need to decrease the WAN connections used to deliver messages. This is done as you are only using EX4 with EX1 or EX2 (depending on which server is up).

67. You are the Exchange Administrator for Spring First Home Loans.
Your users send several hundred E-mail messages each day to Woodgrove Bank. The administrator at Woodgrove bank reports that their servers were unavailable for six hours but that the servers are now available. There are currently 350 messages queued on your Exchange 2000 Server computer for delivery to Woodgrove Bank. You need to expedite the delivery of these messages.
What should you do?

A. Change the setting for the first retry interval on the SMTP from 10 minutes to 1 minute.

B. Force a connection on the Woodgrovebank.com link queue.

C. Create a custom filter to enumerate all messages in the woodgrivebank.com link queue.

D. Unfreeze all messages in the woodgrovebank.com link queue.


Answer: D
BONZO: Smokin said B for this. But a man in the field told me he has to do D on a regularly to solve this.

68. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You install Exchange 2000 Server at the main office and at each of the branch offices as shown in the exhibit.



The company's product documents are stored in a public folder named products. A large number of users at each location frequently access the documents. You want to provide these users with faster access to the public documents. You also need to minimize the amount of administrative effort necessary for distributing these documents.
The WAN links between locations are used by several business applications during the day. You need to optimize the WAN traffic generated by accessing and managing the products public folder during the day.
Which three actions should you take? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose three)

A. Create a public folder store on EX2, a public folder store on EX3, and a public folder store on EX4.

B. Create a public folder tree for EX2, a public folder tree for EX3, and a public folder tree for EX4.

C. Create an instance of products in each of the public folder stores on EX2, EX3, and EX4.

D. Create a public folder named products in each of the public folder trees for EX2, EX3, and EX4.

E. Configure the products folder to replicate between 8P.M and 4A.M.

F. Configure the products public folder to replicate every four hours.


Answer: A, C, E
You need to create a new public folder store at each branch office, not a new tree as you would still have to create a new store for this tree as a public folder store can only contain the contents of one tree. Moreover Outlook 2000 and other MAPI clients can only view the default public folder tree. The products instance needs to be placed in each of these new stores, and you need to replicate these stores outside business hours to minimize WAN traffic. WAN traffic would also be minimized during office hours as users at the branch offices would view their local copy of the products instance rather than go over the WAN link to EX1

69. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your network is configured as shown in the exhibit.



You need to configure the Exchange 2000 Server computer to allow remote users to access their mailboxes by using outlook express. You also need to ensure that internal users can access their mailboxes only by using outlook. Because the remote users can access their mailboxes only from the Internet, the highest level of encryption is needed. Remote users must also be able to download and store messages and information from public folders for offline viewing.
What should you do?

A. Open port 110 and port 389 on the firewall. Install a web server certificate on the Exchange 2000 Server computer and assign the certificate to the POP3 virtual server. Configure the POP3 virtual server communication properly to require a secure channel with 128-bt encryption. Configure the POP 3 virtual server connection property to grant access for a group of computers by specifying the
IP address 10.10.1.0 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0

B. Open port 143 and port 389 on the firewall. Install a web server certificate on the Exchange 2000 Server computer and assign the certificate to the IMAP4 virtual server. Configure the IMAP4 virtual server communication properly to require a secure channel with 128-bt encryption. Configure the IMAP4 virtual server connection property to grant access for a group of computers by specifying the IP address 10.10.1.0 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0

C. Open port 993 and port 636 on the firewall. Install a web server certificate on the Exchange 2000 Server computer and assign the certificate to the IMAP4 virtual server. Configure the IMAP4 virtual server communication properly to require a secure channel with 128-bt encryption. Configure the IMAP4 virtual server connection property to deny access for a group of computers by specifying the IP address 10.10.2.0 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0

D. Open port 995 and port 636 on the firewall. Install a web server certificate on the Exchange 2000 Server computer and assign the certificate to the POP3 virtual server. Configure the POP3 virtual server communication properly to require a secure channel with 128-bt encryption. Configure the POP 3 virtual server connection property to deny access for a group of computers by specifying the IP address 10.10.1.0 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0.


Answer: C
LEARN YOUR PORTS!!!! IMAP4 - Insecure 143, SSL 993, directory lookups (secure) LDAP over TLS/SSL port 636. You need to request a certificate to enable this secure communication for your IMAP virtual server. Using POP3 you cannot view the public folders so A & D incorrect. B is insecure as standard IMAP (143) and LDAP (389) ports used.

70. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You currently use Exchange Server 5.5 in your Windows 2000 domain. You have one site on the Exchange server 5.5 organization, and you have two Exchange Server 5.5 computers in that site, named server 1 and server 2. You plan to install a new Exchange 2000 server computer named server3 into the existing Exchange server 5.5 site. The proposed network is shown in the exhibit.



You plan to have mailboxes in all three Exchange servers. To simplify administration, you must be able to manage all Exchange mailboxes and user accounts from the active directory users and computers console.
You need to configure the server so that changes made in active directory are reflected on the Exchange Server 5.5 computers. Prior to installing server 3, what should you do?

A. In the active directory create an organization unit (OU) that has the same name as the Exchange server 5.5 site. Move all the Exchange server 5.5 user accounts into the new OU. Configure full administrator permission on that OU to the Exchange server 5.5 service account.

B. In active directory connector, create a two-way connection agreement between server 4 and server 1. Connect the connection agreement to the recipient’s container in the Exchange server 5.5 site.

C. In the active directory, create a one-way connection agreement from the server 1 to server 4. Connect the connection agreement to the recipient’s container in the Exchange server 5.5 site.

D. Upgrade server 1 to Windows 2000, and promote server 1 to a domain controller. In the active directory, create an organizational unit that has the same name as the Exchange server 5.5 site. Move all of the Exchange server 5.5 user accounts into the new OU.


Answer: B
BONZO: Leaving aside the wrongly-numbered server4, B is correct. A one-way connection would work, if it went from the 2000 server to the 5.5 server. Option C goes the wrong way.
Me: Remember for information to be replicated from Win2k to Exchange 5.5 the connector has to go from the win2k server to the exchange 5.5 server. I agree with Bonzo though that server 1 would normally be the DC and server 4 a member server so this is confusing.



71. You are the administrator for Windows 2000 network at your company. Network responsibilities are divided between two teams named administrators and support professionals. You’re the member of administration team. Group membership and job responsibilities are organized as shown in the following table:


Teams Group Membership Responsibilities
Administrators Enterprise Admins,Schema Admins,Domain Admins. All Changes made to Active Directory
Support Professionals Enterprise Admins,Domain Admins. All Messaging systems operations, server maintenance 7 user support calls.


Your network currently has no messaging software installed. Julia a member of the support professionals member team, is installing the network’s first Exchange 2000 server computer. Julia reports that during the installation of Exchange 2000 server, she was not able to install the Microsoft Exchange messaging and collaboration services component. You must enable Julia to install this component. What should you do?

A. Run setup/forestprep

B. Run setup/domainprep

C. Promote the Exchange server to a domain controller in the existing domain.

D. Promote the Exchange server to a domain controller in the new domain.


Answer: A
ForestPrep needs to be run once per forest, and DomainPrep once per domain when installing Exchange 2000. Julia does not have the correct group membership to run Forestprep, though you do as you are a member of the Schema Admins & Enterprise Admins groups. She does have the correct permissions for DomainPrep though as she is a member of the Domain Admins group.

72. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. You are using Exchange 2000 servers on your network. You plan to deploy messaging client software for your users. Your company has four departments named sales, administrative, manufacturing and technical. All users in sales are mobile. Users in the other departments work only in office. You want to accomplish the following goals:

• All sales users must be able to access their mailboxes from the Internet.
• Administrative users must be able to access public folders and calendaring.
• Manufacturing users must be prevented from accessing calendaring components.
• Technical users must be able to access public folders.
• All users must be to access their mailboxes.

You deploy the client software as shown in the exhibit as shown in the following table:

Sales Administrative Manufacturing Technical
Outlook 2000 y
OWA y
IMAP3
POP3 y
IRC y y y

Which result or results do these actions produce? (Choose all that apply)

A. All sales users can access their mailboxes from the Internet.

B. Administrative users can access public folders and calendaring.

C. Manufacturing users are prevented from accessing calendaring components.

D. Technical users can access public folder.

E. All users can access their mailboxes.


Answer: A, C, D

BONZO: AGREED but depends on the diagram.
Me: Bonzo look - a lovely table! OWA is enabled so A is correct. Admin users cannot access public folders or Calendaring as they have no IMAP or Outlook access so B is wrong. C is correct due to the fact that they have no access to Outlook 2000 or any MAPI/IMAP client. D is correct due to the Outlook 2000 access. E is wrong due to the lack of POP 3 on Sales, Manufacturing & Technical users.

73. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. You manage three Exchange 2000 Server computers. The hard disk on one of the servers fails. You have an online backup of the Exchange databases on that server. You repair the faulty hardware and restart Windows 2000 Server on the failed server. You must
restore the Exchange server’s configuration from the Active Directory and restore the mailbox and public folder store data. What should you do before mounting the databases?

A. Run setup/domainprep. Restore the databases from the online backup, and then run ISINTEG patch.

B. Run setup/domainprep. Restore the databases from the online backup, and select the Last Restore Set check box.

C. Run setup/disasterrecovery. Restore the databases from the online backup, and run ISINTEG patch.

D. Run setup/disasterrecovery. Restore the databases from the online backup, and select the Last Restore Set check box.


Answer: D
A & B wrong as only need to run DomainPrep once in an enterprise. Moreover ISINTEG-Patch is not valid. D is correct as disaterrecovery switch restores Exchange 2k without upsetting any AD settings. You check Last Restore Set check-box when you restore the last bit of data from a backup set.



74. You are the Exchange Administrator fro your company. You manage an Exchange 2000 Server computer for the marketing department. Users in the marketing department report that they can’t open certain e-mail messages in a public folder. You find that several folders in the public folder store are corrupt. You must restore this problem so that the users in the marketing department can access their messages again.
What should you do?

A. Run ESEUTIL/CM on the database. Restart the information store service.

B. Run ISINTEG-patch on the database. Restart the information store service.

C. Dismount the public folder store, and then run ISINTEG-fix on it. Remount the store.

D. Dismount the public folder store, and then run ESEUTIL/cc on it. Remount the store.



Answer: C
A store needs to dismounted before an online fix can take place. You use the ISINTEG-fix command to perform a fix on the data in the store. You then need to remount the store.


75. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. Your Exchange 2000 Server computer has a single storage group that contains three mailbox stores and one public folder store. You perform nightly backups, altering between a normal backup of two of the mailbox stores on one night and a normal backup of the other mailbox store and public folder store the following night. You notice hat the transaction log files are not being purged, and they are now consuming nearly all the available disk space. You need to continue to perform alternating nightly backups of the mailbox stores and the public folder store, but you must make sure that the transaction log files are not taking up too much of hard disk space.
What should you do?

A. Configure the storage group to disable circular logging.

B. Install a new physical disk and move the transaction log files to the new disk.

C. Perform a nightly incremental backup of the entire storage group in addition to the current backups.

D. Perform differential backups of the mailbox stores and the public folder store instead of normal backups.



Answer: C
Incremental backups will be only the data that has changed since the last backup - not the whole data. These files will therefore be smaller. Additionally, this would delete the transaction logs as a incremental back up marks the files as backed up, ready for a new transaction log for the next back up (so basically you only back up the changed data).


76. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. A former employee named Rebecca deleted several E-mail messages from her E-mail box shortly before resigning from the company. Most of these E-mail messages were received from Internet sources and contained very important file attachments. You have an online backup that was created on Exchange day prior to the deletion, and an offline backup that was created two weeks prior to the deletion.
You must recover the deleted e-mail message from the Rebecca mailbox with minimal disruption to current mail services on the network. What should you do?

A. In system manager, dismount the database that contains the mailbox and restore the appropriate database from the online backup. Remount the database.

B. Install Exchange 2000 Server in an isolated forest. In the system manager of the new installation, dismount the database and restore the appropriate database from the online backup. Remount the database.

C. Stop the information store service and restore the appropriate .edb file. Run ISINTEG-patch and then restart the information store service.

D. Install the Exchange 2000 server in an isolated forest. Stop the information store service and restore the appropriate .edb file. Run ESEUTIL/CM and then restart the information store service.



Answer: B
MINIMUM DISRUPTION - the key to this question. ‘A’ would cause disruption so would C as the database or the information store has been stopped, hence users cannot send or receive mail. In D, this would restore the offline backup - which is not the most recent backup. B is the only solution, as it would cause no disruption to the network and it would achieve the required result.


77. You are responsible for the backup and restore strategy for your company's Exchange 2000 Server computer. The Exchange server has a single storage group that contains two mailbox stores and one public folder store. You must configure your backup schedule to accomplish the following goals:

• The mailbox databases must be backed up each night.
• The public folder database must be backed up each week.
• The transaction log files must be purged only once each week.

Which two types of backups should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
Choose two)

A. A nightly normal backup of the entire storage group.

B. A nightly normal backup of the mailbox databases.

C. A nightly incremental backup of the entire storage group.

D. A weekly differential backup of the entire storage group.

E. A weekly incremental backup of the mailbox databases.

F. A weekly normal backup of the entire storage group.



Answer: B, F
Transaction logs will only be purged when all the databases have been backed up. The storage group stores share the same transaction logs, so these logs will not be deleted until the whole storage group is backed up. A normal backup of the mailbox store satisfies part 1 of the answer without jeopardizing the other two parts. Part 2 & 3 of the question can be achieved in one swoop by doing a normal backup on the entire storage group as this includes the public folder store (part2) and will purge the public folder store (part3)

78. You are the Exchange Administrator for your company. A large number of mailboxes on your Exchange 2000 Server computer are infected with a virus that you are unable to clean. You export and uninfected E-mail messages to files and you want to remove the mailboxes from an online backup that was performed prior to infection. Circular logging is enabled. You configure Windows backup to always overwrite the files on your computer and then you perform a restore from your online backups. Once completed the restore progress report indicates a successful restore with skipped files. When you examine your Exchange mailbox, you discover that the mailbox database files were not restored.
You must resolve this problem prior to merging the uninfected messages into the databases, and then complete the restore process.
What should you do?

A. Stop the information store service, and then perform the restore again, selecting the same overwrite options.

B. Dismount the database, and then perform the restore again, selecting the same overwrite options.

C. Perform the restore again, and select the Last Restore Set checkbox when prompted.

D. In the Windows backup, select the Compute selection information before backup and restore check box, and then perform the restore again.


Answer: B
A restore to a database will not be successful unless the database has been dismounted first. There is no option to restore a database online.


79. You are the Exchange administrator for your company. You have three Exchange 2000 Server computers named server1, server 2 and server 3.
You are implementing a disaster recovery plan. You must configure the weekday backups jobs for each server to meet these requirements:

• Backups of all database files must be run only on the weekend.
• Daily backups of server 1 must include only the information changed that day.
• Restoring server 2 near the end of the week must be performed with as little administrator effort as possible.
• Backing up server 3 must not truncate the transaction log files during the daily backup.

Specify which type of backup to use for each server
To answer click the select and place button, and then drag the appropriate backup type to each server.
(Use only the backup types that apply. You might need to reuse one or more backup types.)



A. Server 1 Differential, Server 2 Differential, Server 3 Differential
B. Server 1 Incremental, Server 2 Incremental, Server 3 Incremental
C. Server 1 Incremental, Server 2 Differential, Server 3 Differential
D. Server 1 Differential, Server 2 Incremental, Server 3 Incremental

Answer: C
Bonzo's answer to select-and-place. :)
ME: Incremental backups saves only new Transaction log files - which therefore will only backup changed files that day (server1). Differential backups back up everything since the last NORMAL backup hence server 2 can be restored quicker than an incremental backup. A differential backup will not purge the transaction logs so server 3 is sorted.
