The HRdept group needs to have full access to a nested folder on a server. This folder cannot be moved, and is within a folder where the HRdept group must not be allowed to open or change any files. What is the easiest method to accomplish this?
-
Assign the read attributes special permission to the container where HRdept should have no access, then apply Full Control to the nested folder
-
Apply Full control permissions to the nested folder
-
Apply the “List Folder Contents” standard permission to the container where HRdept should have no access, then apply Full Control to the nested folder
-
Set up a batch script to automatically copy the files from the nested folder to another folder where HRdept can access them freely
Correct Answer
A. Apply the “List Folder Contents” standard permission to the container where HRdept should have no access, then apply Full Control to the nested folderExplanation
The easiest method to accomplish this is to apply the "List Folder Contents" standard permission to the container where HRdept should have no access. This will allow them to see the nested folder but not open or change any files within it. Then, Full Control permissions can be applied specifically to the nested folder, giving HRdept full access to it. This ensures that HRdept has full access to the nested folder while being restricted from accessing or modifying any files in the container folder.Rate this question:

Which of the following is not a method by which you can access Windows shares?
-
UNC path
-
Active Directory search
-
Mapping a drive
-
Telnetting the UNC path
Correct Answer
A. Telnetting the UNC pathExplanation
Telnetting the UNC path is not a method to access Windows shares. Telnet is a network protocol used for remote administration of computers, but it does not provide direct access to shared resources on a Windows network. UNC path, Active Directory search, and mapping a drive are all valid methods to access Windows shares. UNC path allows accessing shared folders by specifying the server and share name in the path. Active Directory search helps in finding shared resources through the network directory service. Mapping a drive assigns a drive letter to a shared folder for easy access.Rate this question:
