Which permissions do administrators typically use to assign storage space as well as modify permissions on a Windows Server 2008 file server?
-
FAT
-
NTFS
-
DHCP
-
DNS
Correct Answer
A. NTFSExplanation
Administrators typically use NTFS permissions to assign storage space and modify permissions on a Windows Server 2008 file server. NTFS (New Technology File System) provides more advanced and granular control over file and folder permissions compared to FAT (File Allocation Table). NTFS allows administrators to set permissions for individual users or groups, restrict access to specific files or folders, and define different levels of access such as read, write, or execute. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) and DNS (Domain Name System) are network services and not directly related to storage space or permissions on a file server.Rate this question:

To whom should you always assign security permissions?
-
Individuals
-
Groups
-
Domains
-
Forests
Correct Answer
A. GroupsExplanation
Assigning security permissions to groups is preferred over assigning them to individuals because it allows for easier management and scalability. By assigning permissions to groups, you can easily add or remove users from the group, and the permissions will automatically apply to all members of the group. This simplifies the process of granting or revoking access rights and ensures consistency across multiple users. Additionally, using groups allows for better organization and categorization of users based on their roles or responsibilities.Rate this question:
