Q

What port does LDAP use?

A

389

19
Q

A _______ is a relationship established between domains to enable users in one domain to access resources in another domain.

A

trust

20
Q

How do Trusts authenticate Users across the trust?

A

Via Kerberos or NTLM

21
Q

In the Parent-Child Trust, when are child domains created?

A

Child domains are automatically added when created.

22
Q

When is the Tree-Root trust created?

A

When new root domains are added to an Active Directory forest.

23
Q

When is the Forest Trust created?

A

Must be created by a privileged administrator.

24
Q

What trust relationship does the Forest trust establish?

A

It establishes a trust relationship between two AD forests.

25
Q

This trust exists between two distant child domains; used to improve logon.

A

Shortcut Trust

26
Q

Access between two Active Directory domains located in different forests (no forest trust exists).

Can be one direction.

A

External Trust

27
Q

What protocol do queries on the domain for Windows systems use?

A

LDAP

28
Q

Name the 4 steps of the Domain Query process.

A
  1. Client queries DNS for LDAP SRV record.
  2. Once the LDAP service is identified, the client connects to Port 389.
  3. The connection is made to a Domain controller.
  4. Client authenticates and performs the search.
29
Q

Looking for something within the forest will require a ___________.

A

Global catalog

30
Q

How does the Global Catalog (GC) identify the location of every object in the forest.

A

the GC uses Distinguished Names

31
Q

Name the 3 Forest-Wide queries that need the Global Catalog (GC) service:

A
  1. Search for a resource (printer, fileshare) in a forest that contains more than one domain
  2. A User Principal Name (UPN) logon in a forest that contains more than one domain
  3. Email address search from the Global Address List (GAL)
32
Q

Name the 3 steps of the Forest wide query process.

A
  1. Client queries DNS for GC SRV record.
  2. Once the GC service is identified, client connects to port 3268 or 3269. This connection is made to a domain controller running the GC service.
  3. Client authenticates and performs search.
33
Q

In Windows systems, what is “Local Security Policy”?

A

A combination of settings used by Windows systems to control security on a computer.

34
Q

What are policy settings commonly used for?

A

to edit account and password policies

35
Q

How is “Local Policy” a valuable tool?

A

It is a valuable tool for computer compliance and centrally manage users, applications, and components.

36
Q

Name three things you can find using Local Security Policy

A
  1. The Domains trusted to authenticate logon attempts
  2. Privileges and Rights assigned to accounts
  3. Security Auditing Policy
37
Q

___________ is an infrastructure that allows you to specify managed configurations for users and computers through Group Policy settings and Group Policy Preferences.

A

Group Policy

38
Q

Without an Active Directory, there’s one Group Policy available - what is it?

A

Local Group Policy

39
Q

Group Policy administration only works in conjunction with _______.

A

Active Directory

40
Q

What is a Group Policy object (GPO)?

A

A collection of Group Policy settings that define what a system will look like and how it will behave for a defined group of users.

41
Q

Every GPO contains two parts. What are they?

A
  1. User configuration
  2. Computer configuration
42
Q

Contains policy settings that are relevant only for users.

A

User configuration

43
Q

Contains policy settings that are relevant only for computers. Every setting is relevant to the computer itself.

A

Computer configuration

44
Q

One or more trees that do not form a contiguous namespace are in a what?

A

Forest
