    - MCSE today! (Well, since Friday, if you want to pick) Hi All, I may not have been an 'active' participant in this forum, but I have always browsed through it. A lot of you guys/girls have unknowingly given me plenty of advice over the 18 months I've been studying for my MCSE. I passed my final exam on Friday, and I'd just like to say thanks to everyone here. Thumbs up to you all, and I'll be around whilst I upgrade to W2K3. Steve Tag: MCSE or Specialised MCSE Tag: 153648

    - [Media] Commentary: How About a Useful MCSE Certification? Hopefully someone from MS is actually reading this group. ----------------------------- by Mark Minasi, senior contributing editor, Windows IT Pro magazine I recently had a chance to talk with the attendees of an MCSE boot camp during the last half of their 2-week-long journey from uncertified to MCSE, and it opened my eyes to an awful truth: The MCSE certification is here to stay. Anyone who's read my articles about the Microsoft certification programs over the past 10 years knows that I'm troubled by the notion of a certification controlled by a vendor. But I guess people like having letters after their names, and human resources (HR) departments often don't take the time to evaluate people for their experience, preferring instead to filter people based on the letters after their names--so I surrender. But if we're going to have certifications such as MCSE, Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) and the like, why not make them useful? Why not teach people what they'll actually need and use, instead of using Microsoft certification tests as a means of showcasing every Microsoft technology, no matter how little it's used? Along those lines, here are a few thoughts: - Skip the technologies that almost nobody uses. Do we really need as many questions about NTBackup as are on the server test? Sure, I use the tool because it's free and I'm cheap, but most folks use a third-party backup tool. Ditto for SNMP, Internet Authentication Service (IAS), RRAS, PPTP, and Microsoft Certificate Server. I'm not saying that they're not good implementations of SNMP, Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS), IP routing, or VPN. But in my experience, most folks go to non-Microsoft vendors for those things. The Infrastructure test's depiction of a firm's multisite network built using a Windows server as the backbone IP router is ludicrous, and asking people to design networks in an imaginary universe in which Cisco Systems, Check Point Software Technologies, and a host of other vendors don't exist is silly. Worse yet, imagine if a freshly minted MCSE were to actually recommend and try to implement an all-Microsoft solution. Yikes. - Focus on products and technologies that everyone uses or would use if they knew how. Which services can you safely disable on a Web server? How do you set up and, more important, back up and restore a share configured with one of Windows Server 2003's most attractive new services, Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS)? Part of the MCSE certification is a mandatory test on the most recent version or two of Windows NT Workstation; as far as I know, you can currently get your MCSE with either the Windows XP Professional Edition or Windows 2000 Professional tests. But much of the real world still uses (and probably will use for a long time to come) Windows 9x. I use and like XP, but I wouldn't force my clients to use it. If a customer wants to use Win98, then I should be able to support it, and the Win98 test ought to be a valid substitute for the XP or Win2K tests for MCSE candidates. - The exam should include questions about limitations in Microsoft software. For example, how can you give a user permissions to create and modify files in a folder but prevent that user from being able to delete files in the folder? Answer: In a practical sense, you can't because most file-oriented applications let you modify files by clicking File/Save, and that command first saves the current document in memory to a new file. Then, the application deletes the old file and renames the new file to the old file's name. Here's another example (this question is probably the number-one question I get from ex-Novell administrators): I've created a share that contains several folders. I set NTFS permissions on those folders to give different groups of users different access levels. How can I keep Windows from showing users folders to which they're denied access? Answer: You can't. How can I configure a user's copy of Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 to support full remote procedure call (RPC)-style connectivity to a Microsoft Exchange Server server when the user has more than one mailbox on the Exchange server? You can't. How can I set different password requirements for groups in a domain? Again, impossible. Asking questions such as these prepares a would-be Microsoft expert to be able to support people in the real world. - When necessary, discuss third-party software. Remote Installation Service (RIS) is a neat product, but I only rarely come across clients that use it to roll out desktops. Most administrators couldn't care less about RIS; they use Symantec's Norton Ghost or similar product. So why not include a thorough set of questions about using Sysprep and Ghost in the XP test? And include questions about backup. It's a good idea to ensure that people can use some kind of backup tool, but not a good idea to require that they understand NTBackup. Why not require that the test subject answer three questions about backup, but let him or her choose whether to answer them about NTBackup, VERITAS Software's Backup Exec, UltraBac Software's UltraBac, or some other major backup software? - Don't ask memorization questions; isn't that what Help is for? I recall a question in the NT 3.5 TCP/IP test that asked what command will dump NetBIOS names for a host, given its IP address. I knew that Nbtstat was the command, and that the option was either -A or -a, but I couldn't remember which one. (-A takes IP addresses; -a takes host names. I don't know why it's not smart enough to handle either parameter--Ping, Nslookup, and a few dozen other IP-related utilities can process either.) I found the question infuriating. What's the point of the "/?" command if I'm expected to memorize parameters? Similarly, the Win2K test asked something about the accessibility tools, a question that I could easily answer in about three clicks, had I access to a Win2K desktop. That's the whole point of a GUI. Just imagine: If these tests really tested useful knowledge, then these certifications would be worthwhile. Of course, it'd be far better if the certification were controlled by an independent nonprofit third-party organization, but you can't have everything. Tag: MCSE or Specialised MCSE Tag: 153601

    - 70-291: Wrong VLSM study question? Hi to everyone, following a question from a 70-291 study exam, with the suggested correct responses. I belive these responses are wrong. First take a look at the question: ---------------------------- Your organization has leased the Class C network 199.205.15.0/24. You are subnetting this network using VLSM. Your routers support the zero subnet and the longest match algorithm. You ask one of your support staff to design a subnetting structure, but when she submits this you suspect that some of the network/subnet mask allocations are invalid. Which of the following are not valid networks? (Choose all that apply). 1. 199.205.15.64/25 <Correct> 2. 199.205.15.8/27 <Correct> 3. 199.205.15.130/26 <Correct> 4. 199.205.15.192/26 5. 199.205.15.40/28 6. 199.205.15.96/26 ---------------------------- AFAIK, looking at the last octet of the above addresses and masks, 199.205.15.64/25 equate to 01000000 address 10000000 mask. This mean not all host bits are set to 0, so this is not a valid network. The same goes for: 199.205.15.8/27 199.205.15.130/26 199.205.15.40/28 199.205.15.96/26 The only valid network is 99.205.15.192/26. What do you think?

    - Strange Error I'm prepping for my 70-217 exam and I try to run the practice exam that came with my Microsoft book, which has worked fine in the past, but now when I run it, I get a script error saying that 'objBigList.documentElement' is null or not an object. I have no idea what that means, so I by it and tell it to keep running scripts on the page. Problem is when I start the exam, the whole screen in blank where there used to be questions. Tried saying to not run scripts, but same thing. I un-installed and re-installed, but got the same message. Then I installed it on a different machine, and still got the same message. Anyone have any ideas, or how I can tell Microsoft about this? How do I contact Microsoft about this. When I looked at Google there were other people who had the same problem but no one had any solutions. Thanks! Marc Tag: MCSE or Specialised MCSE Tag: 153579

    - Migration of a WIN2000 "native mode" domain to WINSERVER 2003 doma Hi to all. This is my scenario. In our company we have a "SINGLE DOMAIN - MULTIPLE SITES" Windows 2000 "native mode" domain, running Active Directory. There are, currently, 4 sites with 6 DC's. The situation is as follows. FIRST SITE ======= In the first site (the company headquarters), there are TWO DC's and one of these is the OPERATION MASTER for the forest, the MAIN DNS, etc. The second DC' is a second CG server but it is only a simple file server SECOND SITE (located at 20 km from the first site) ========= In the second site, there are other TWO DC's, one of these runs the GC, DNS for the site, WINS, DHCP, etc. THIRD SITE (located 150 km from the first site) ======= Only a single GC DOMAIN CONTROLLER to serve the internal LAN FOURTH SITE (located 200 km from the first site) ========= Only a single GC DOMAIN CONTROLLER to serve the internal LAN All the sites are connected via HDSL links (2 Mbits) and replicated to the first site regularly every THREE HOURS with the operation's master DC. All works well, no problems. Now, we have decided to migrate all the entire domain to the WIN 2003 platform, but, obviously, we have many hundreds of users and computers and we would like to migrate to the new environment without problems. So, the great question is: what are the steps to do to make a successful migration? Can someone help me? Thanks in advance to all!! Bye Bye. Moreno (Italy) Tag: MCSE or Specialised MCSE Tag: 153432

    - Effects of Updating the Active Directory Password Policy When one increases the password length of the password policy in Active Directory at the domain, how does Active Directory treat accounts with passwords still using the former minimum length? For example, If I increased the minimum password length from 7 to 10 characters, how would this change affect accounts that are currently using passwords of 7 characters in length? Would it force them to change their password the next time they login or would it wait until the next time they changed their password to enforce the new policy? How would it affect local accounts on member servers and workstations? Would it force them to change their password immediately or wait until the next time they change their password to enforce the new policy? Is the domain policy even applicable to local accounts on member servers and workstations? Thanks in advance. -N Tag: MCSE or Specialised MCSE Tag: 153368

    - Is the MCSE for me? I interested in doing my MCSE, however am wondering if this is the best path at the moment in terms of price and value to a company. I've been doing desktop support for a couple years, and 2 years of server support on Microsoft Server Enivorment. Working with Exchange 5.5/2000, Active Directory, Terminal Services, Security & Policy management and ISA. I have a decent understanding of these products and technologies and was thinking that the MCSE would be an ideal way to concrete my knowledge in this area. What do you guys reckon? Having travelled for the last 5months and landing up in Australia, money is pretty limited. Will the MCSE be a good value for money investment or should I look towards other certifications.

    - Heard of Rescuecom? Seek job advice I applied an job ad by Rescuecom appeared in NYC. They claim to be a computer consulting company. They promises on-site support within one hour after receiving a customer's call. It's a great news to hear from them after so many of my job inquiry went unanswered. Now they ask me to sign a contract they sent by email. And I hesitate to sign it. 1st, there is no website or phone number for me to reach them to learn more of the company and the opportunity. 2nd. there is a wireless timing device that is used to time hours spent at a customer's site. The device will be rented to me at $30 a week. So it comes to $120+ for a month even if I don't get any work. They pays me $25 per hour for tech work and $45 for consulting work. If you've heard of the company or worked for the company, let me know how the company is. Third. I am not new to the field but I haven't had much opportunity to do real work. So I'm not that experienced and AM a little scared. Let's say they dispatch me to install an Windows Server 2003. If I'm lucky, the installation goes without a hiccup. But if there is an stray, Sure I can come here for advice, but that takes time. So I might get stuck. The idea situation that I'm looking for is they send me out along with a more experienced tech. I can do all I'm capable of. But if something gets me, there is an senior tech to back me up. Would consulting company do that? Should I apply for this job? Tag: MCSE or Specialised MCSE Tag: 153284

Hi. I am just about to sit my last few MCSE 2000 exams and am undecided
whether to complete the modules for a straight MCSE or whether to go for
MCSE: Security. They both have very similar overlaps, although I am
particularly interested in the Security side and have no problems with the
content of either. Can anyone suggest any advantages of one over the other
?

I also want to sit the upgrade exams to complete upgrade to an MCSE 2003.
Are any issues upgrading MCSE: Security 2000 to MCSE: Security 2003 compared
with the upgrading the straight MCSE ?

--
Thanks for any help,
Stuart.

I've actually gone for the Security test, it's a lot harder than it
looks. This test is up there with the 216 and 217 tests. I would wait
untill you go through to your MCSE 2003 before you return to Security
again. Right now I'm 1 away from the MCSE 2003. The 2003 tracks are a
bit harder than 2000.
