second paragraph in the "Routers" section. It now reads:

"Unlike bridges, routers can connect networks using different
architectures (such as Ethernet and Token Ring)."

This statement certainly seems to imply that a bridge cannot connect
networks using different architectures, such as Ethernet and Token
Ring. Yet in the Microsoft text I am also using (ISBN 1-57231-527-X),
on page 556 it clearly states that "Bridges can be used to: Link unlike
network segments such as Ethernet and Token Ring, and forward packets
between them."

I have searched the errata sites for both books but do not see this
item mentioned and wondered if you could clear up the confusion.

"2. Which of the following is not a disadvantage of peer-to-peer
networks?
a. Lack of centralized administration.
b. Low security.
c. High cost."

The answer given on page 75 states:

"2. C. While peer-to-peer networks do have a lack of central
administration and low security, their low cost is a benefit."

This answer would be right if the question had said LOW cost, however it
states HIGH cost. I believe this should be corrected.

if hub ports are used up by interconnecting hubs. The question may need
to be rephrased.

(from a different reader:) Keep in mind that a lot of those X-port hubs
have an uplink port not counted in the X. But even so, they don't have
two that you would need.

serve several roles. It goes on to list the possible roles as PDC, BDC,
member servers, or standalone servers. However, member servers and
standalone servers are one in the same, at least from the point of view of
an NT installation.

Question 25: Question offers the same choice of answers twice answer A
and D both read
the same, suggest changing answer D to begin with multi(0) instead of
scsi(0)


Question 25 now reads:

b. multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)WINNT4="Windows NT"

CORRECTION:

b. multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)WINNT4="Windows NT"

REFERENCE: Page 114

Practice Test question 25: Answer b. should read:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)winnt4="Windows NT"

deleted or renamed it is hard coded into NT, and can only be disabled.
The Administrator account can not be disabled, locked out or deleted
but can have its account name renamed to something other than

Requirements" when these are actually the "Server Requirements".

reads, "The servers in a domain are called domain controllers". However,
not all servers are domain controllers.

first sentence reads:

"The Directory Replicator service is built into Windows NT Server,
but not included with NT Workstation."

This is wrong. The Directory Replicator service is included in NT
Workstation; however, it can only act as an importer and not an exporter
of files.

The last line reads:


AT 12:00 "ntbackup BACKUP C: /t:normal"

It should read:

AT 12:00 "ntbackup BACKUP C: /t normal"

Line 23 reads:

/t:type

It should read:

/t type

paragraph reads:

"Local groups on non-domain controllers are specific to one
computer, and can be granted rights for that computer only.
Local groups on the PDC or BDC exists on all domain controllers
in the domain, and can be granted rights for any resource in
the domain."

The first sentence is accurate. In the second sentence, however, local
groups on a domain controller can only be granted rights for resources
that exist on other domain controllers in the domain. From a member
server or a workstation, the only domain accounts visible are users and
global groups.

second sentence makes reference to the:

"HKEY_LOCAL_COMPUTER"

registry subtree. This should read:

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"

"B. The BDC must authenticate with the PDC during the installation
process. If the BDC is not available, installation cannot proceed."

should be

"B. The BDC must authenticate with the PDC during the installation
process. If the *PDC* is not available, installation cannot proceed."

authenticate users for logon? Select all that apply.

a) PDC
b) BDC
c) Member Server
d) Stand-Alone Server

The answer is A and B, which is correct for a domain.
?But is a stand alone server a valid answer as this would have to validate
users for local log on?

incorrect. In the simple trust figure, there isn't a trusted domain. In
the bidirectional trust figure, there isn't an indication that there is a
bidirectional trust using two opposing arrows.

(5000 * 3) in the second line incorrectly leads to 15000 * 3 in the third line.

domain synchronisation seems to be in error.
