You are the security administrator for TestKing. The=20
network consists of two segments named Segment=20
A and Segment B. The client computers on the network run=20
Windows XP Professional. The servers run=20
Windows Server 2003.=20
Segment A contains a single server named TestKing1.=20
Segment B contains all other computers, including=20
a server named TestKing2.=20
TestKing?s written security policy states that Segment B=20
must not be connected to the Internet. Segment=20
A is allowed to connect to the Internet. There is no=20
network connection between Segment A and Segment=20
B. You can copy files from Segment A to Segment B only by=20

D. On TestKing, configure Automatic Updates to use the=20
URL of the Microsoft Windows Update Web site.=20
Periodically copy the downloaded files and the=20
Mssecure.xml file to the Content folder on TestKing2.=20
Answer: A=20
Explanation:=20
Since the question does not address where approvals=20
should be done, we have to assume that the approvals are=20
done by the administrators at the Segment B site.=20
If SUS is used to approve updates, it retrieves the=20
Approveditems.txt file from the root of the IIS/SUS=20
default=20
website (http://server2) not the Windows folder.=20
If you do not install SUS on Server1 there will be no=20
Content folder (distribution point) on Server1.=20
Automatic Updates should not be turned on, on the SUS=20
servers.=20
SUS is a server component that, when installed on a=20
server running Windows 2000, allows small and medium=20
enterprises to bring critical updates from Windows Update=20
inside their firewalls to distribute to Windows 2000=20
and Windows XP computers. The same Automatic Updates=20
component that can direct Windows 2000 and=20
Windows XP computers to Windows Update can be directed to=20
a SUS server inside your firewall to install=20
critical updates.=20
Automatic Updates retrieves all critical updates and=20
Microsoft Security Response Center security updates that=20
are classified as moderate or important.=20
Automatic Updates scans only for critical updates, but if=20
its server that runs SUS contains updates other than=20
critical ones, Automatic Updates receives and applies=20
those as well. SUS receives critical and moderate=20
security=20
updates.=20
Creating Distribution Points=20
When you install a server that runs SUS, a distribution=20
point is created on that server. When you synchronize=20
the server with a parent server or with an external Web=20
site, all the content on the Web site is downloaded to=20
the=20
distribution point. If new updates are downloaded, this=20
distribution point is updated during every=20
synchronization. During Setup, the distribution point is=20
created in a virtual root (Vroot) named /Content.=20
If you choose to maintain content on the public Web site=20
instead of downloading the patches to the local server=20
running SUS, this distribution point is empty except for=20
the AUCatalog.cab file. AUCatalog.cab defines the=20
updates that have been approved for deployment to=20
clients.=20
You can also create a distribution point on a server that=20
is not running SUS. Such a server must be running IIS=20
5.0 or later. You can download and test packages on=20
servers running SUS, and then download approved and=20
tested packages to distribution points for client access.=20
If your SUS design includes distribution points, perform=20
the following tasks to create a distribution point:=20
1. Confirm that IIS is present.
2. Create a folder named \Content.
3. Copy allof the followingitems from the source server=20
running SUS to the newly created \Content=20

Answer: D=20
Explanation:=20
Assigning IPSec Policies LocallyEach computer running=20
Windows Server 2003 has one local GPO, which is=20
also known as the local computer policy. When this local=20
GPO is used, Group Policy settings can be stored on=20
individual computers regardless of whether they are=20
members of an Active Directory domain. The local GPO=20
can be overridden by GPOs assigned to sites, domains, or=20
OUs in an Active Directory environment that have=20
higher precedence. On a network without an Active=20
Directory domain (that is, a domain that does not have a=20
domain controller running Windows 2000 or Windows Server=20
2003), the local GPO settings determine IPSec=20
behavior because they are not overridden by other GPOs.=20
Local policy assignment is a way to enable IPSec for=20
computers that are not members of a domain.=20
You can also create and assign persistent IPSec policy,=20
which secures a computer even if a local IPSec policy or=20
an Active Directory?based IPSec policy cannot be applied.=20
This policy adds to or overrides the local or Active=20
Directory policy, and remains in effect regardless of=20
whether other policies are applied or not. Persistent=20
IPSec=20
policies enhance security by providing a secure=20
transition from computer startup to IPsec policy=20
enforcement.=20
Persistent policy also provides backup security in the=20
event of an IPSec policy corruption, or if errors occur=20
during the application of local or domain-based IPSec=20
policy. To configure persistent policies, you must use=20
the=20
netsh ipsec static set store location=3Dpersistent command.=20
When designing persistent IPSec policy, it is important=20
to consider the potential impact of persistent policy on=20
remote management. If local or domain-based IPSec policy=20
is not applied and the persistent IPSec policy is the=20
only policy that is applied, attempts to remotely=20
diagnose an issue might be blocked by the persistent=20
IPSec=20
policy. To allow for remote management in case=20
troubleshooting is required, it is recommended that you=20

If you want to use IPSec to protect SNMP messages, you=20
must configure all SNMP - enabled systems to use=20
IPSec, or the communications will fail. If you can't=20
configure all SNMP-enabled systems to use IPSec, at a=20
minimum, you must configure the IPSec policies of the=20
systems that are SNMP- enabled so that they can send=20
cleartext (unencrypted) information. However, this=20
somewhat defeats the idea of trying to secure messages=20
because all communications will be unsecured.=20
IP Security does not automatically encrypt the SNMP=20

You need to configure an IPSec policy to protect customer=20

What should you do?=20
A. Configure the IPSec policy to use Authentication=20

authentication.
B. Configure the IPSec policy to use Encapsulating=20

transport mode.=20
D. Configure the IPSec policy to use Encapsulating=20
Security Payload (ESP) with Kerberos authentication in=20
tunnel mode.=20
Answer: B=20
Explanation:=20
IPSec can operate in two different modes: transport mode=20
and tunnel mode. Typically, you should use transport=20
mode to protect host-to-host communications. In transport=20
mode, IPSec tunnels traffic starting at the transport=20
layer, also known as layer 4. Therefore, IPSec in=20
transport mode can encrypt the User Datagram=20
Protocol/Transmission Control Protocol (UDP/TCP) protocol=20
header and the original data, but the IP header=20
itself cannot be protected. IPSec transports an=20
application?s data by adding an IPSec header and trailer=20
to=20
outgoing packets. Depending on the IPSec protocol used,=20
the original contents of the outgoing packets will be=20
Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools,=20
www.testking.com=20
-17
70 - 299=20
encrypted. IPSec?s position in the packet when=20
functioning in transport mode is shown in Figure 8.1. The=20
diagram shows IPSec using the ESP protocol. ESP is the=20
most common of the two IPSec protocols because it=20
provides both authentication and encryption=20
When you protect traffic sent directly between two hosts,=20
you will almost always use IPSec transport mode.=20
When you protect traffic between a host and a network, or=20
between two networks, you must use IPSec tunnel=20
mode. Although transport mode stores the UDP/TCP header=20
and the application data between an IPSec header=20
and trailer, tunnel mode stores the entire original=20
packet.=20
The IP header, including the source and destination=20
addresses, must be stored within the IPSec packet because=20
the traffic is destined for a computer other than the=20
computer to which the IPSec connection was established.=20
If hosts on two networks are communicating across the=20
Internet and all clients are IPSec enabled, transport=20
mode can be used to encrypt traffic between individual=20
hosts, or tunnel mode can be used to encrypt all traffic=20
sent between the two networks.=20
Naturally, tunnel mode is more convenient because it=20
doesn?t require every host to have IPSec enabled?but=20
which is more secure? Tunnel mode is more secure than=20
transport mode, in theory.=20
Use transport mode when you communicate with one=20
computer, and use tunnel mode when you communicate=20
with an entire network, so when the decision calls for=20
encapsulating or tunneling the IP header, use tunnel=20
mode.=20

Answer: C=20
Explanation:=20
Overview of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) 11-5 - Used=20
primarily for Internet communications=20
Obtaining SSL Certificates=20
To use SSL, the server must have a suitable public key=20
certificate. Additionally, some SSL scenarios allow or=20
require the client to use a public key certificate. SSL=20
is one of the most common uses for public key=20
certificates,=20
and, as a result, you can obtain SSL certificates from a=20
wide variety of places. Any organization with a=20
computer running Windows Server 2003 can deploy=20
Certificate Services to issue SSL certificates without=20
any=20
additional cost. These certificates are suitable for=20
intranet scenarios, in which both the servers and the=20
clients are=20
controlled by a single organization. These certificates=20
should not be used for communications that cross=20
organizations, however.=20
As with any public key infrastructure (PKI), SSL=20
certificates can only be trusted if the root=20
certification=20
authority (CA) is trusted. You can use Group Policy=20
objects (GPOs) to add your CA to the list of trusted root=20

CAs on clients on an intranet, but it is much more=20
difficult to configure clients on the public Internet.=20
For this=20
reason, if you do not control the client computers, you=20
should obtain an SSL certificate from a public CA that is=20
trusted by the client applications that will be=20
establishing a connection to your server. If the server=20
is a Web=20
server, your clients will be Web browsers. Microsoft=20
Internet Explorer is configured by default to trust a=20
large=20
number of public CAs.=20
Comparing SSL with IPSec=20
IPSec is commonly used to provide the same services as=20
SSL: authentication, privacy, and message integrity.=20
However, the approach IPSec takes is different from that=20
of SSL. IPSec is implemented by the operating system=20
and is completely transparent to the applications that=20
use IPSec. As a result, IPSec can be used to protect=20
almost=20
any type of network communication. IPSec also provides a=20
flexible authentication scheme. The Microsoft=20
Windows implementation of IPSec allows clients and=20
servers to authenticate each other by using either public=20
key certificates or a shared secret. SSL, on the other=20
hand, must be implemented by individual applications.=20
Therefore, you cannot use SSL to encrypt all=20
communications between two hosts. Additionally, SSL is=20
less=20
flexible than IPSec because it only supports=20
authentication by means of public key certificates. SSL=20
does=20
provide several distinct advantages, however. Most=20
significantly, SSL is supported by a wide variety of=20
servers=20
and clients, and the maturity of the standard has=20
practically eliminated interoperability problems.=20
Additionally,=20
SSL allows one-way authentication, while IPSec requires=20
both sides of a connection to authenticate. One-way=20
authentication allows SSL to be used to authenticate the=20
server without placing the burden of registering for a=20
public key certificate on the client. This enables SSL to=20
be used to encrypt communications with public Web=20
sites while protecting the privacy of the end user by not=20
revealing the details of a user certificate to the Web=20

Explanation:=20
Connection request policiesConnection request policies=20
are sets of conditions and profile settings that give=20
network administrators flexibility in configuring how=20
incoming authentication and accounting request messages=20
are handled by the IAS server. With connection request=20
policies, you can create a series of policies so that=20
some=20
RADIUS request messages sent from RADIUS clients are=20
processed locally (IAS is being used as a RADIUS=20
server) and other types of messages are forwarded to=20
another RADIUS server (IAS is being used as a RADIUS=20
proxy). This capability allows IAS to be deployed in many=20
new RADIUS scenarios.=20
With connection request policies, you can use IAS as a=20
RADIUS server or as a RADIUS proxy, based on the=20
time of day and day of the week, by the realm name in the=20
request, by the type of connection being requested,=20
by the IP address of the RADIUS client, and so on.=20
It is important to remember that with connection request=20
policies, a RADIUS request message is processed only=20
if the settings of the incoming RADIUS request message=20
match at least one of the connection request policies.=20
For example, if the settings of an incoming RADIUS Access-
Request message do not match at least one of the=20
connection request policies, an Access-Reject message is=20
sent.=20

both of which provide mutual authentication. In=20

(the=20

When this authentication option is used, the Access-

For enhanced security, you can enable IEEE 802.1x=20
authentication. IEEE 802.1x authentication provides=20

implementation, a wireless access point that is=20
configured as a=20
RADIUS client sends a connection request and accounting=20
messages to a central RADIUS server. The central=20

depending on the authentication method chosen. The=20
support that IEEE 802.1x provides for Extensible=20
Authentication Protocol (EAP) security types allows you=20
to use authentication methods such as smart cards,=20

which provides authenticated network access to 802.11=20
wireless networks and to wired Ethernet networks. Port-
based network access control uses the physical=20
characteristics of a switched local area network (LAN)=20
infrastructure to authenticate devices that are attached=20
to a LAN port and to prevent access to that port in cases=20
where the authentication process fails.=20
During a port-based network access control interaction, a=20
LAN port adopts one of two roles: authenticator or=20
supplicant. In the role of authenticator, a LAN port=20
enforces authentication before it allows user access to=20
the=20
services that can be accessed through that port. In the=20
role of supplicant, a LAN port requests access to the=20
services that can be accessed through the authenticator's=20
port. An authentication server, which can either be a=20
separate entity or co-located with the authenticator,=20
checks the supplicant's credentials on behalf of the=20
authenticator. The authentication server then responds to=20
the authenticator, indicating whether the supplicant is=20
authorized to access the authenticator's services.=20
The authenticator?s port-based network access control=20
defines two logical access points to the LAN, through=20
one physical LAN port. The first logical access point,=20
the uncontrolled port, allows data exchange between the=20
authenticator and other computers on the LAN, regardless=20
of the computer's authorization state. The second=20
logical access point, the controlled port, allows data=20
exchange between an authenticated LAN user and the=20
authenticator.=20
IEEE 802.1x uses standard security protocols, such as=20
RADIUS, to provide centralized user identification,=20
authentication, dynamic key management, and accounting.
For an example of wireless access using the Internet=20
Authentication Service (IAS) as a RADIUS server, see=20
Wireless access example=20

Windows NT global groups. In terms of membership,=20
they have domain-wide scope, but can be granted=20
permissions in any domain, even in other forests and=20
earlier=20
version domains as long as a trust relationship exists.=20
Universal Groups=20
Universal groups can contain members from any Windows=20
2000 domain in the forest, but cannot contain=20
members from outside the forest. You can grant universal=20
groups permissions in any domain, even in other=20
forests, as long as a trust relationship exists. Although=20
universal groups can have members from mixed mode=20
domains in the same forest, the universal group will not=20
be added to the access token of these members because=20
universal groups are not available in mixed mode.=20
You can add users to a universal group, but it is=20
recommended that you restrict universal group membership=20
to=20
global groups. Universal groups are available only in=20
native mode domains.=20
Use of Universal Groups=20
Universal groups have a number of important=20
characteristics. You can use universal groups to build=20
groups that=20
perform a common function within an enterprise. One=20
example might be virtual teams. The membership of such=20
teams in a large company would probably be nationwide or=20
even worldwide, and almost certainly forest-wide,=20
with the team resources being similarly distributed.=20
Universal groups could be used as a container in these=20
circumstances to hold global groups from each subsidiary=20
or department, with a single access control entry=20
(ACE) for the universal group to protect the team=20
resources.=20
In using universal groups, an important factor to=20
consider is that while global and domain local groups are=20
listed=20
in the global catalog (GC), their members are not,=20
whereas universal groups and their members are listed, a=20
fact=20
that has implications for GC replication traffic.=20
Exercise care in the use of universal groups. As a guide,=20
if your=20

simply use universal groups for all of your groups and=20
benefit from not having to bother with managing global=20
groups and domain local groups. If, however, your=20

performance in several ways by using global=20
groups and domain local groups. If you use global groups=20

Universal Groups and Access Tokens=20
The previous discussion of universal group membership=20
touched on the fact that universal groups can contain=20
members from mixed mode domains, but that such members=20
will not have the universal group's SID in their=20
access token. This is a consequence of the way access=20
tokens are created in Windows 2000. When a user logs=20
on to a Windows 2000 native mode domain and has been=20
authenticated, the Local Security Authority (LSA) on=20
the domain controller where the user was authenticated=20
retrieves the user's global group memberships. The LSA=20
then passes this information down to the workstation,=20
where it is used to build the user's access token. At the=20
same time, the LSA queries the GC for the user's=20
universal group memberships, which it also passes to the=20
workstation. If a user is a member of a universal group,=20
the SID of that group is included in the access token on=20
the workstation, and is added to the authorization data=20
in the TGT issued by the KDC. Universal groups are not=20
added to access tokens at any other timefor example, when=20
impersonation tokens are created at member servers.=20
As a consequence, if the universal group SID is not=20
available when the user logs onfor example, where the=20
user=20
is logging on to a mixed mode domainit will not be added=20
subsequently.=20
Nesting Groups=20
It is recommended that you do not create groups with more=20
than 5,000 members. This guideline is based on the=20
fact that updates to the Active Directory store have to=20
be capable of being made in a single transaction. Because=20
group memberships are stored in a single multivalue=20
attribute, a change to the membership would result in the=20
whole attributein other words, the whole membership=20
listhaving to be updated in a single transaction.=20
Microsoft=20
has tested and supports group memberships of up to 5,000=20
members. You can get around this limitation by=20
nesting groups to increase the effective number of=20
members. A further consequence is that you also reduce=20
the=20
replication traffic caused by replication of group=20
membership changes. Your nesting options depend on=20
whether the domain is in native mode or mixed mode. The=20
following list describes what can be contained in a=20
group that exists in a native mode domain. These rules=20
are determined by the scope of the group.=20
? Universal groups can contain user accounts, computer=20
accounts, other universal groups, and global groups=20
from any domain.=20
? Global groups can contain user accounts from the same=20

? Domain local groups can contain user accounts,=20
universal groups, and global groups from any domain. They=20
also can contain other domain local groups from within=20
the same domain.=20

Answer: A=20
Explanation:=20
Certificate revocation=20
A certificate has a specified lifetime, but CAs can=20
reduce this lifetime by the process known as certificate=20
revocation. The CA publishes a certificate revocation=20
list (CRL) that lists serial numbers of certificates that=20
it=20
regards as no longer valid. The specified lifetime of=20
CRLs is typically much shorter than that of a=20
certificate.=20
The CA might also include in the CRL the reason the=20
certificate has been revoked. A revocation might occur=20
because a private key has been compromised, because a=20
certificate has been superseded, or because an=20
employee has left the company. The CRL also includes the=20
date the certificate was revoked. During signature=20
verification, applications can check the CRL to determine=20
whether a given certificate and key pair are still=20
trustworthy. Applications can also determine whether the=20
reason or date of the revocation affects the use of the=20
certificate in question. If the certificate is being used=20
to verify a signature, and the date on the signature=20
precedes the date of the revocation of the certificate by=20
the CA, the signature can still be considered valid. Off=20
the Record: Most applications do not analyze the reason=20
code. If a certificate is revoked, it?s revoked. The=20
reason code just isn?t that important. To reduce the=20
number of requests sent to the CA, the CRL is generally=20
cached by the client, which can use it until it expires.=20
If a CA publishes a new CRL, applications that have a=20
valid CRL do not usually use the new CRL until the one=20
they have expires.=20
Installing, Configuring, and Managing Certification=20
Services - Off the Record: The CRL contains the reason=20
code you select for revoking the certificate. Before you=20
select the reason code, think about whether you really=20
want everyone who can access the CRL to know why you=20
revoked it. If you did have a key compromise or a=20
CA compromise, are you ready for that to be public=20
information? If not, just select Unspecified. Clients=20
discover that a certificate has been revoked by=20
retrieving the certificate revocation list (CRL). There=20
are two=20
kinds of CRLs: full CRLs, which contain a complete list=20
of all of a CA?s revoked certificates, and delta CRLs.=20
Delta CRLs are shorter lists of certificates that have=20
been revoked since the last full CRL was published. After=20
a=20
client retrieves a full CRL, the client can download the=20
shorter delta CRL to discover newly revoked=20
certificates. See Also: For detailed information about=20
CRLs, read the white paper ?Troubleshooting Certificate=20

ort/tshtcrl.mspx=20
Troubleshooting Certificate Status and Revocation=20
Optimizing Delta CRLs=20
While in itself, Delta CRLs optimize the revocation=20
checking process, you can further optimize the Delta CRL=20
process by reducing the number of Base CRL fetches. This=20
means that any client who has that oldest Base CRL=20
will not be forced to download a new Base CRL until it=20
expires. This minimizes the number of times a Base=20
CRL is retrieved by the client, but increases the size of=20
the Delta CRL. The Windows .NET Certificate=20
Authority is primarily configured to ensure that the=20
smallest Delta CRL sizes are used. If it is desired to=20
optimize Base CRL usage, longer lifetimes should be=20
applied to the BaseCRL publication period.=20

htcrl.mspx?#i=20
Troubleshooting Certificate Status and Revocation=20
Delta CRLs=20
One of the biggest decisions faced by a CA administrator=20
is determining the publication schedule for CRLs. If a=20
CA publishes a complete CRL frequently, then clients are=20
aware of a newly revoked certificate very quickly.=20
However, this causes higher amounts of network traffic=20
due to the more frequent downloading of the updated=20
Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools,=20
www.testking.com=20
-35
70 - 299=20
CRL to all clients. If a CRL publishes CRLs less often,=20
this reduces the amount of network traffic, but increases=20
the latency before a client is aware of a newly revoked=20
certificate.=20
If a CA revokes a large number of certificates, the size=20
of the base CRL can grow to be larger than 1 MB in size=20
if large numbers of certificates are revoked. If the CRL=20
is published at frequent intervals, this can result in=20
problems for clients connecting over slow connections.=20
Alternatively, if the base CRL is published at longer=20
intervals, this can result in the CRL information being=20
out of date and reducing the validity of the CRL=20
information.=20
Delta CRLS, defined in RFC 2459, address these problems,=20
by publishing changes to a Base CRL (bCRL), in a=20
smaller file known as a Delta CRL (sCRL). When Delta CRLs=20
are implemented, a client can download a Base=20
CRL at longer intervals, and then download smaller Delta=20
CRLS at shorter intervals to validate any presented=20
certificates. The Delta CRLs can be published at very=20
short intervals, such as once an hour, to increase the=20
confidence in the certificates being validated. All of=20
the time information stored in CRLs is stored as UTC.=20
Note: This does not eliminate the requirement to download=20
the larger Base CRLs. The Base CRL must be=20
downloaded initially and when the previous Base CRL=20
expires. The Delta CRL can force the client to retrieve a=20
more recent Base CRL even though the current Base CRL is=20
still time valid. This is achieved by having the=20
Delta CRL point to a higher number Base CRL.=20
When Delta CRLs are implemented, only changes from a Base=20
CRL are published in a Delta CRL, resulting in=20
a reduction in the size of the CRLs downloaded to the=20
clients. This reduction in size allows for more frequent=20
publishing of the CRL with both a minimal impact on the=20
network infrastructure, and an improvement on the=20
up-to-datedness of CRL information.=20
Publishing CRLs=20
If you need to download a file from a server, you might=20
access the file in several different ways. If you?re=20
logged onto the computer locally, you would use Windows=20
Explorer to navigate to the folder containing the file.=20
If you were on a different computer on the same network,=20
you might map a drive to the server and download the=20
file from a shared folder. If the server was behind a=20
firewall and running IIS, you could open a Web browser to=20
retrieve the file.=20
Having multiple ways to retrieve a file from a server is=20
important, especially when the server will be accessed=20
by a variety of different clients. Certificate Services=20
enables clients to retrieve CRLs by using a wide variety=20
of=20
different protocols: shared folders, Hypertext Transfer=20
Protocol (HTTP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), and=20
Lightweight=20
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). By default, CRLs are=20
published in three different locations. For clients=20
accessing the CRL from a shared folder, they are located=20
in the \\Server\CertEnroll\ share, which is created=20
automatically when Certificate Services is installed.=20

There are two ways to improve the security of client=20
certificates. First, you can use client certificate=20
mapping to=20
restrict access to users with specific certificates. (You=20
can also use client certificate mapping to control=20
authorization by mapping the certificates to existing=20
user accounts.) Second, you can configure a certificate=20
trust=20
list (CTL) to reduce the number of root CAs that can=20
issue certificates to your users. One-to-one client=20
certificate mapping=20
Client certificate mapping has two modes: one-to-one and=20
many-to-one. One-to-one certificate mapping relates=20
a single exported certificate to an Active Directory user=20
account. When Web users present the certificate, they=20
will be authenticated as if they had presented a valid=20
user name and password.=20
Many-to-one client certificate mapping=20
Many-to-one certificate mapping uses wildcard matching=20
rules that verify whether a client certificate contains=20
specific information, such as the issuer or subject. This=20
mapping does not identify individual client certificates;=20
it accepts all client certificates fulfilling the=20
specific criteria. If a client gets another certificate=20
containing all the=20
same user information, the existing mapping will still=20
work. Certificates do not need to be exported for use in=20
many-to-one mappings. To add many-to-one certificate=20
mappings, follow this procedure:=20
1. View the properties for the Web site, and then click=20
the Directory Security tab.=20
2. Click the Edit button in the Secure Communications=20
box.=20
3. Select the Enable Client Certificate Mapping check=20
box, and then click the Edit button.=20

7. In the Edit Rule Element dialog box, click the=20
Certificate Field list to choose either Issuer or=20
Subject. Select=20
Issuer to filter based on the CA that issued the=20
certificate. Choose Subject to filter based on who the=20
certificate=20
was issued to. After completing the rule element, click=20
OK. Security Alert When creating certificate mapping=20
rules, keep in mind how easy it is to create your own=20
root CA. Attackers could easily create their own root CA=20
using your domain names. To prevent this type of=20
impersonation, use certificate mapping along with a=20
certificate trust list.=20
8. To add an additional rule, return to step 6.=20
9. Click Next.=20
10. On the Mapping page, click Refuse Access to reject=20
logons that match the criteria, or click Accept This=20

certificates to a user account. If you choose to accept=20
the=20
certificate, complete the Account and Password boxes.=20
Click Finish. If prompted, confirm the password and=20
then click OK. Before you can authenticate users with=20
client certificates, you must issue client certificates.=20
If the=20
users are members of an Active Directory domain and you=20
are using an enterprise CA, auto-enrollment is the=20
most efficient way to enroll users. Web servers are often=20
used to communicate with users outside of your=20
organization, however. For these users, you should use=20
Web enrollment. The exercise at the end of this lesson=20
demonstrates the process of enrolling a user certificate=20

File Transfer Protocol Service=20
Through the File Transfer Protocol service (FTP service),=20
IIS provides full support for managing and serving=20
files. The service uses the Transmission Control Protocol=20
(TCP), which ensures that file transfers are complete=20
and that the data transferred is accurate. This version=20
of FTP supports isolating users at the site level to help=20
administrators secure and commercialize their Internet=20
sites. FTP service runs as Ftpsvc2.dll and is hosted by=20
Inetinfo.exe.=20
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol Service=20
IIS can send or receive e-mail by using the Simple Mail=20
Transfer Protocol service (SMTP service). For=20
example, you can program the server to send mail=20
automatically in response to events, in order to confirm=20
successful forms submissions by users. Also, you can use=20
the SMTP service to receive messages that collect=20
feedback from Web site customers. SMTP service does not=20
provide full e-mail services. To deliver full e-mail=20
services, use Microsoft=AEExchange Server. SMTP service=20
runs as Smtpsvc.dll and is hosted by Inetinfo.exe.=20
Network News Transfer Protocol Service=20
You can use the Network News Transfer Protocol service=20
(NNTP service) to host NNTP local discussion=20
groups on a single computer. Because this feature=20
complies fully with the NNTP protocol, users can use any=20
news reader client to participate in the newsgroup=20
discussions. Through the Rfeed script, found in the=20
inetsrv=20
folder, the IIS NNTP service now supports newsfeeds. NNTP=20
service does not support replication. To employ=20
news feeds or to replicate a newsgroup across multiple=20
computers, use Exchange Server. NNTP service runs as=20
Nntpsvc.dll and is hosted by Inetinfo.exe.=20
IIS Admin Service=20
IIS Admin service manages the IIS metabase and updates=20
the Microsoft Windows=AE operating system registry=20
for the WWW service, FTP service, SMTP service, and NNTP=20
service. The metabase is a data store that holds=20
IIS configuration data. IIS Admin service exposes the=20
metabase to other applications, including the core=20
components of IIS, applications that are built on IIS,=20
and third-party applications that are independent of IIS,=20
such as management or monitoring tools. IIS Admin service=20

Restricted groups allow an administrator to define the=20
following two properties for security-sensitive=20
(restricted)=20
groups:=20
Members=20
Member Of=20
The "Members" list defines who should and should not=20
belong to the restricted group. The "Member Of" list=20

Creating Restricted Groups Policy=20
you can use security policies to control local group=20
memberships on domain member computers.=20
Windows Server 2003 includes a security policy setting=20
called Restricted Groups that allows you to control=20
group membership. By using the Restricted Groups policy,=20
you can specify the membership of a group=20
anywhere in your Active Directory domain. For example,=20
you can create a Restricted Groups policy to limit the=20
access on an OU that=20
contains computers containing sensitive data. The=20
Restricted Groups policy would remove domain users from=20
the local users group and thereby limit the number of=20
users who can log on to the computer. Group members=20
that are not specified in the policy are removed when the=20
Group Policy setting is applied or refreshed to the=20
computer or OU. The Restricted Groups policy settings=20
include two properties: Members and Member Of. The=20
Members property defines who belongs and who does not=20
belong to the restricted group. The Member Of=20
property specifies the other groups to which the=20
restricted group can belong. When a Restricted Groups=20
policy is=20
enforced, any current member of a restricted group that=20
is not on the Members list is removed. Members who=20
can be removed include Administrators. Any user on the=20
Members list who is not currently a member of the=20
restricted group is added. In addition, each restricted=20
group is a member of only those groups that are specified=20
in the Member Of column. The shows Restricted Groups=20
being used to add the Infra_Engineers group from the=20
domainname.com domain to the Network Configuration=20
Operators local group on all client computers. For=20

named testking.com. All servers run Windows Server 2003.=20
All client computers run Windows XP=20

Answer: A, B, E=20
Explanation:=20
Software Restriction Policy=20
By using the software restriction policy, you allow=20
unknown code, which might contain viruses or code that=20
conflicts with currently installed programs, to run only=20
in a constrained environment (often called a sandbox)=20
where it is disallowed from accessing any security-
sensitive user privileges. For example, an e-mail=20
attachment=20
that contains a worm would be prohibited from=20
automatically accessing your address book and therefore=20
could=20
not propagate itself. If the e-mail attachment contained=20
a virus, the software restriction policy would restrict=20
its=20
ability to damage your system because it would be allowed=20
to run only in a constrained environment.=20
The software restriction policy depends on assigning=20
trust levels to the code that can run on a system.=20
Currently,=20
two trust levels exist: Unrestricted and Disallowed. Code=20
that has an Unrestricted trust level is given=20
unrestricted access to the user's privileges, so this=20
trust level should be applied only to fully trusted code.=20
Code=20
with a Disallowed trust level is disallowed from=20
accessing any security-sensitive user privileges and can=20
run=20
only in a sandbox so that Unrestricted code cannot load=20
the Disallowed code into its address space.=20
Configuring the software restriction policy for a system=20
is done through the Local Security Policy=20
administrative tool, while the restriction policy=20
configuration of individual COM+ applications is done=20
either=20
programmatically or through the Component Services=20
administrative tool. If the restriction policy trust=20
level is=20
not specified for a COM+ application, the systemwide=20
settings are used to determine the application's trust=20
level.=20
HOW TO: Use Software Restriction Policies in Windows=20
Server 2003=20
SUMMARY=20
This article describes how to use software restriction=20
policies in Windows Server 2003. When you use software=20
restriction policies, you can identify and specify the=20
software that is allowed to run so that you can protect=20
your=20
computer environment from untrusted code. When you use=20
software restriction policies, you can define a=20
default security level of Unrestricted or Disallowed for=20
a Group Policy object (GPO) so that software is either=20
allowed or not allowed to run by default. To create=20
exceptions to this default security level, you can create=20
rules=20
for specific software. You can create the following types=20
of rules:=20
Hash rules=20
Certificate rules=20
Path rules=20
Internet zone rules=20
How to Create a Path Rule=20
Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools,=20

70 - 299=20
Click Start, click Run, type mmc, and then click OK.=20
Open Software Restriction Policies.=20
In either the console tree or the details pane, right-
click Additional Rules, and then click New Path Rule.=20
In the Path box, type a path or click Browse to find a=20
file or folder.
In the Security level box, click either Disallowed or=20
Unrestricted.=20
In the Description box, type a description for this rule,=20
and then click OK.IMPORTANT: On certain folders,=20
such as the Windows folder, setting the security level to=20
Disallowed can adversely affect the operation of your=20
operating system. Make sure that you do not disallow a=20
crucial component of the operating system or one of its=20
dependent programs.=20
NOTES:=20
You may have to create a new software restriction policy=20
setting for this GPO if you have not already done so.=20
If you create a path rule for a program with a security=20
level of Disallowed, a user can still run the software by=20
copying it to another location.
The wildcard characters that are supported by the path=20
rule are the asterisk (*) and the question mark (?).=20
You can use environment variables, such as %programfiles%=20
or %systemroot%, in your path rule.=20
To create a path rule for software when you do not know=20
where it is stored on a computer but you have its=20
registry key, you can create a registry path rule.=20
To prevent users from running e-mail attachments, you can=20
create a path rule for your mail program's=20
attachment folder that prevents users from running e-mail=20
attachments.=20
The only file types that are affected by path rules are=20
those that are listed in Designated file types. There is=20
one=20
list of designated file types that is shared by all=20
rules.=20
For software restriction policies to take effect, users=20
must update policy settings by logging off from and then=20
logging on to their computers.=20
When more than one rule is applied to policy settings,=20
there is a precedence of rules for handling conflicts.=20
Configuring the Software Restriction PolicyWhen you=20
explicitly set the software restriction trust levels of a=20
COM+ application, you are overriding the default=20
systemwide settings for the software restriction policy.=20
This=20
is often necessary for COM+ server applications because=20
the systemwide restriction policy is set the same for=20
all server applications (because they all run in the same=20
file, dllhost.exe).=20
Note When you set the trust level of a COM+ library=20
application, you are affecting the systemwide software=20
restriction policy for that application. For an overview=20
of how to use the software restriction policy in COM+,=20
see Software Restriction Policy.=20
To set the software restriction policy=20
Right-click the COM+ application for which you are=20
setting the restriction policy, and then click Properties.
In the application properties dialog box, click the=20
Security tab.=20
Under Software Restriction Policy, select the Apply=20
software restriction policy check box to enable setting=20
the=20
trust level; clearing the check box causes COM+ to use=20
the systemwide software restriction policy for the=20
application.
In the Restriction Level box, select the appropriate=20
level. The levels are as follows, ordered from least to=20
most=20
trusted:=20
Disallowed The application is disallowed from using the=20

Deploying and Troubleshooting Security Templates=20
If multiple Group Policy objects are linked to a single=20
domain, site, or OU, verify that the=20

conflicting settings in different policies,=20
the higher policy in the list has higher precedence and=20
will overwrite conflicting settings=20
from other policies.=20
Standard Group Policy inheritance=20
In general, Group Policy is passed down from parent to=20
child containers within a=20
domain. Group Policy is not inherited from parent to=20
child domains. For example,=20
Deploying Security Templates=20
Group Policy is not inherited from cohowinery.com to=20
accounting.cohowinery.com.=20
However, if you assign a specific Group Policy setting to=20
a high-level parent container,=20
that Group Policy setting applies to all containers=20
beneath the parent container, including=20
the user and computer objects in each container. If a=20
policy setting is defined for a=20
parent organizational unit and the same policy setting is=20
not defined for a child organizational=20
unit, the child inherits the parent?s enabled or disabled=20
policy setting. If you=20
explicitly specify a Group Policy setting for a child=20
container, the child container?s=20
Group Policy setting overrides the parent container?s=20
setting. When multiple GPOs=20
apply, and they do not have a parent/child relationship,=20
the policies are processed in=20
this order: local, site, domain, organizational unit.=20
If a policy setting that is applied to a parent=20
organizational unit and a policy setting that=20
is applied to a child organizational unit are compatible,=20
the child organizational unit=20
inherits the parent policy setting, and the child?s=20
setting is also applied. If a policy setting=20
that is configured for a parent organizational unit is=20
incompatible with the same=20
policy setting that is configured for a child=20
organizational unit (because the setting is=20
enabled in one case and disabled in the other), the child=20
does not inherit the policy setting=20
from the parent. The policy setting in the child is=20
applied.=20
You can block policy inheritance at the domain or OU=20
level by opening the properties=20
dialog box for the domain or organizational unit and=20
selecting the Block Policy Inheritance=20
check box. You can enforce policy inheritance by setting=20
the No Override=20
option on a GPO link. When you select the No Override=20
check box, you force all child=20
policy containers to inherit the parent?s policy, even if=20
that policy conflicts with the=20
child?s policy and even if Block Inheritance has been set=20
for the child. You can set No=20
Override on a GPO link by opening the properties dialog=20
box for the site, domain, or=20

check box is selected.=20
Exam Tip Policies that are set to No Override cannot be=20

Group Policy inheritance with security groups=20
You cannot link Group Policy objects directly to a=20
security group. You can, however,=20
use security group membership to allow or disallow=20
