Ben, an employee in the legal department, has created several sensitive documents on his computer that must be made available to all members of the executive staff working in the same building. Due to the sensitive nature of these document, Ben not only wants to restrict access to the files, but also make it impossible for anyone else in the company to even know where they are stored unless specifically told. Which of the following would MOST likely fulfil Ben's needs?
An hidden share is a form of a network share that cannot be viewed by others when they are searching for the shared location. These shares are created by adding a dollar sign ($) to the end of the share when it is created. By using this type of share, Ben could send the path to those requiring access, and then those with rights could see and access the files.

Bob is a member of the Accounting group. The Accounting group has been granted the Read and Write NTFS permissions to the WeeklyReport.xls file. Bob is also a member of the Everyone group, which has been given the Full Control permission to the WeeklyReport.xls file. Which of the following statements MOST correctly describes Bob's ability to access the WeeklyReport.xls file?
Bob can open, read, and write changes to the file. When evaluating the interaction between Share and NTFS permissions, remember that the most restrictive set of permissions takes precedence. In this case, the NTFS permissions (Read and Write) are more restrictive than the Full Control permission granted to the Everyone group through the share, so the effective permissions are Read and Write.
Which of the following statements are true regarding administrative shares? (Select TWO).
By default, Windows automatically creates an administrative share for every volume. The share name is the volume letter plus the dollar sign (such as C$).

It has a lot of advantages over xcopy. One of the key benefits of robocopy is that it can resume an interrupted copy job. Another key benefit of the robocopy command is the fact that it preserves NTFS file and folder permissions during the copy process. It also will skip copying a file if the source file already exists in the destination directory and the copy in the destination directory has the exact same timestamp and the exact same size as the source file. We are going to type in robocopy. We have to specify the source directory that we want to copy. It's d:\research. Then we need to specify the directory we want to copy that structure to, which is D:\temp. We use the /S option to get the subdirectories

Modify the NTFS permissions on the folder.
NTFS file attribute Permissions
NTFS permissions control access to folders and files through the Windows operating system. · NTFS permissions are available only for files on a partition formatted with NTFS. · Each file has an access control list (ACL) that identifies users or groups and the actions they can perform on the file. · Permissions are saved as an attribute of the file. Moving NTFS files to another NTFS partition preserves the permissions; moving NTFS files to a non-NTFS partition removes the permissions.
Jane, an employee in the human resources department, has created several important PDF documents on her computer that all office managers in her building must read. She would like to make locating these files simple and maintain them as little as possible. It is important that no other users are permitted to view these documents. As the IT technician for your company, Jane has asked you to make this possible. Which of the following would MOST likely fulfill Jane's needs?
Network share By creating a network share to Jane's folder that contains her documents, you can grant the managers the ability to see and read these documents. All other employees will not have access if the rights are granted appropriately. If a manager forgets the path, they will still be able to easily find the folder by looking for shared folders on her computer.
You manage two folders in your computer as follows: C:\Confidential D:\PublicReports The C:\ drive is formatted with NTFS, and the D:\ drive is formatted with FAT32. In the C:\Confidential folder, you edit the properties for the following two files and assign the Deny Read permission to the Users group: Reports.doc Costs.doc You then take the following actions: Move Reports.doc from C:\Confidential to D:\PublicReports. Copy Costs.doc from C:\Confidential to D:\PublicReports. Which of the following BEST describes what happens to the permissions for both files as they are created in the D:\PublicReports folder?
Permissions are removed from both files. Moving or copying files to a non-NTFS partition removes any permissions (FAT32 does not support NTFS permissions). Moving files to the same NTFS partition preserves any permissions. Copying files to another partition (NTFS or otherwise) removes existing permissions. Copied files to an NTFS partition inherit the permissions assigned to the drive or folder; copied files to a non-NTFS partition do not inherit permissions because no permissions exist.

Deny Full Control to the D:\Sales folder. Deny Full Control to the D:\Reports\2010reports.doc file. Allow Full Control to the D:\Sales\2010sales.doc file. Which of the following BEST describes the effective permissions Rachel will have for both files?
Rachel has Deny Full Control to D:\Reports\2010reports.doc and Allow Full Control to D:\Sales\2010sales.doc because the permissions are explicitly assigned to the file. With NTFS permissions, explicitly assigned permissions take precedence over inherited permissions, even inherited Deny permissions.

Using the Windows OS, Joe transfers a file in his Documents folder to a folder that has been configured to give Ann full control of all files. Instead of copying the files, Joe uses a move operation. Ann can read the file, but can't save any changes to the file. Which of the following is MOST likely the reason that Ann can't update the file?
The Modify and Write permissions for Ann were set to Deny when the file was in Joe's Document's folder. When a file is copied in Windows, it's given the permissions granted in the destination folder, regardless of the permissions on the original file. When a file is moved, Windows attempts to keep the same permissions that the file had in the original folder. Most likely, the Modify and Write permissions for Ann were set to deny when the file was in Joe's Documents folder.

All other users must not be able to view or modify the files in the folder. Which of the following would be the BEST actions to take next? (Select TWO).
To control both local and network access, you will need to use both NTFS and share permissions. The folder must be located on an NTFS partition to be able to configure NTFS permissions. Configuring only NTFS permissions will not allow network access. Configuring only shared permissions with the files on a FAT32 partition will not control local access.
How do we use the Tab complete feature, or command complete feature?
To use it, we type the first couple letters of the directory that we want to display and then press the Tab key. Notice that it automatically fills the rest of the path I want to display. Because there are spaces within the directory name itself, the command prompt put everything in quotes. Any time you have spaces in a folder name, you need to put the folder name in quotes to use the dir command against it. Otherwise, it will give you an error. So, that's a really helpful function to use.

In the CMD prompt, what is the X or robo copying command ?
copy entire directory structures, then use the xcopy command or the robocopy command. Let's take a quick look at xcopy first. Type 'help xcopy' and press Enter. It's the copy command on steroids because it can copy entire directory tree structures. There are two options here we're going to be primarily concerned with, the /S and the /E options. The /S option copies the directories and subdirectories you specify unless they happen to be empty. The /E option will do the same thing, but it'll copy subdirectories including any subdirectory that's empty. Therefore, for our copy process, we could use either /S or /E in this case because the fie subdirectory already has a file and it.
