Can anyone please help me with the following questions for my University coursework:
1. A network is subnetted into 5 subnets connected through a router and with 60 nodes on each subnet. IP addresses are currently assigned manually but the company wants to bring in hot-desking with laptops and so needs IP addresses to be issued automatically using DHCP.
a) How does one use a Windows 2003 server as a router in a network that is subnetted into 5 subnets? Are there any additional features required?
b) What hardware and software is required if the automatic addressing is to be managed centrally and is to be resilient and will still work even if one server fails?
c) If each subnet has a full Class C address assigned and if one of the subnets has the address xxx.xxx.32.0 and includes 2 servers and a network direct printer, how will the software be configured on this subnet? What address ranges will be created in the scopes?
2.What DOS commands would achieve the following:
i) Create a home directory for 'dave' as a subfolder to the directory 'staff'
ii) Create a hidden share for dave's folder
3.When a user logs onto a workstation on a network, connected to a server (Windows 2003), explain how the user sees his usual profile, and how it's updated when logging off.
4. Take a network with a single collision domain using NetBEUI for name resolution that is to be upgraded to a routed network with several subnets.
a)Which name styles can be supported on a routed windows network? (what are name styles?)
b)What choices are there for managing resolution of these names?
c)If the network is to include a Linux based firewall, how will this affect the choice of protocol for name resolution?
5. Say I have an NT4 server and a mixture of NT4 and Windows 98 workstations.
How should the Windows 98 computers be configured to ensure a secure logon to the server?
I know there is no reason why anyone here should do me this favour but it will be much appreciated and give me a great help. So please, answer any question you can, take it as an opportunity to do a good deed today and show off your knowledge!
Thanks very much
