SPD settings in Central Administration |
In all the bullets that explain the check boxes of SPD settings, You are sating that allowing "checking" the option will "disallow" or "precludes" an action. That is untrue, checking the option will allow the action.
Note from the Author or Editor:
On p. 218, in the "Allow SharePoint Designer To Be Used In This Web Application", the text should read "Selecting this setting allows the use of SPD with this web application."
On p. 218, in the "Allow Site Collection Administrators To Detach Pages From The Site Template", the last sentence of this bullet should read "Selecting this setting allows the pages to be detached from the Site Template."
On p. 219, in the "Allow Site Collection Administrators To Customize Master Pages And Layout Pages", the last sentence of this bullet should read "Selecting this setting allows the customization of these page types."
On p. 219, in the "Allow Site Collection Administrators To See The URL Structure Of Their Web Site", the text should read "Selecting this setting allows designers to see and interact with the internal structure of their site." |

Answer of Question 4 |
Anonymous authentication can be configured also at the site collection level although it must be configured first at the Zone level. So I think that also C is a correct answer as well.

D. |
Yes, D is the correct answer indeed. But question 3., is about "Sharing" not "Quotas".
So Quotas should be replaced with sharing

"D. Sharing is part of the configuration for site collections." |

4. Create the example web application: |
We already defined $Provider in step 3, so we should use it by providing it to the switch -AuthenticationProvider
So the whole command gonna be:
New-SPWebApplication -ApplicationPool $AP -ApplicationPoolAccount $APAcct -Name $WA -Port 80 -AuthenticationProvider $Provider -DatabaseName $ContentDB
Also, no need to to put A. as it's just one step ;)
Note from the Author or Editor:
p. 62, mid-page, item #4. Create the example web application. As per errata submitted, PowerShell should read "New-SPWebApplication -ApplicationPool $AP -ApplicationPoolAccount $APAcct -Name $WA -Port 80 -AuthenticationProvider $Provider -DatabaseName $ContentDB" |

Table 4-2
List Unique Permissions Threshold is not 5.000 unique permissions. It is 50.000.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Per http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787, the Security scope threshold is indeed 50,000 unique scopes, although the recommendation is 5,000 unique scopes.
In Table 4-2, change the List Unique Permissions Threshold from 5,000 unique permissions to 50,000 - this is the correct threshold value. |

2nd Paragraph |
Section entitled 'Planning server Load Balancing' contains the following statement :
"Any load balancer intended for use with Sharepoint requires the capability to setup persistent/sticky/affinity sessions."
This is incorrect - sticky sessions are no longer required with Sharepoint 2013 due to the introduction of the Distributed cache service as documented here :
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219758.aspx
"By storing the login tokens in the Distributed Cache Service in SharePoint 2013, the configuration of affinity in your load balancing solution is no longer required. There are also scale-out benefits and less memory utilization in the web front-ends because of a dedicated cache service."
Note from the Author or Editor:
On p. 77 in the Planning server load balancing section, remove paragraph 3, which begins with "Any load balancer intended..."
Replace with an "IMPORTANT" note - "In prior versions of SharePoint, it was recommended that sticky sessions be configured when using a load balancing technology. SharePoint 2013 includes functionality provided by the Distributed Cache Service for caching the FedAuth token. This eliminates the need for sticky sessions (load balancing affinity) with the associated load balancing service. See http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/20348.sharepoint-2013-appfabric-and-distributed-cache-service.aspx for details. |

The default maximum file size (maximum upload size) in SharePoint 2013 has increased from 50 MB to 250 MB
Note from the Author or Editor:
The initial number was correct, but the TechNet documentation changed the maximum file size from 50MB to 250MB in their latest documentation.
p. 55, List and library limits, bullet 2 should now read:
* File size - This is a boundary limit of 2GB; the default maximum file size is 250 MB but can be increased to 2GB. Increasing file size to 2 GB can have a negative effect on farm performance. |

First paragrah in "Monitoring content databases" section |
The sentence "Central Administration does not provide a method to farm administrators for reviewing the size of either content databases or site collections." is partially incorrect. There is a way in Central Administration to see how much space a certain site collection is using. That is done by going to "Application Management" > "Configure quotas and locks" and looking at the "Current storage used" under the "Site Quota Information" section.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Replace the first paragraph of Monitoring Content Databases with:
"SharePoint 2013 Central Administration is limited in its ability to monitor Content Databases. The size of individual site collections can be reviewed from the "Configure Quotas and Locks" section of Application Management. To review this information, open Application Management > Configure quotas and locks and then look at Current Storage used (within the Site Quota Information section).
Unfortunately, there is not a way to review the sizes of multiple site collections or their respective content databases from within Central Administration. Windows PowerShell, on the other hand, provides a couple of different cmdlets for reviewing SharePoint databases: Get-SPDatabase and Get-SPContentDatabase." |
