TechNotes 70-290 Windows 2003 Server

Here's a list of a my current TechNotes for the Windows 2003 Server 70-290 exam, which should give you complete coverage of the corresponding exam objectives (listed at the bottom of each TechNotes). The TechNotes are also available in a printer-friendly format, and eventually I will combine them in a single PDF file. Let me know if you have any comments, suggestions so I can edit/add it before it ends up in the PDF guide.

Managing Groups
Covers group types, scopes, default/builtin groups, group automation and more.

Shared Folders and NTFS Permissions *NEW*
Covers configuring, troubleshooting, and combining shared folders and NTFS permissions, effective permissions, ownership, and permission inheritance.

Remote Administration and Terminal Server
Covers Remote Desktop, Remote Assistance, configure and troubleshooting Terminal Server, Remote Desktop Connection.

Shadow Copy Volumes
An overview of a new feature in Windows 2003 called Shadow Copy Volumes including details on how to configure it.

More are on the way...

Happy reading!

Thanks for all your hard work, Webmaster. These guides are proving more helpful than the Microsoft and ExamCram books combined. I'll be taking my 70-290 exam on June 23rd and have recieved an incredible boost! Much appreciation and adoration to you!

Thanks for putting this information into a well-written and concise form. The information is completely accurate minus all of the typos in the MOC texts.

To those studying for the exam; resources like this will be of great benefit to you.

Thank you so much for these notes, I've just decided to try the 290 before the client exam (I can't decide on XP or Vista!!!) so these will be a great extra help in my studies!

You are a star sir!

Thanks for the information. I am also studying for the 70-270, 70-290, and 70-291

Perfect reading material.
I have read 2 of the 4 so far and both have clarified the topics in 6 pages(each) far better than the 40/50 pages Sybex or MSPress books take to do the same thing.

Thanks.

I dont suppose I can have my cake and eat it too,......
Any chance you happen to have an snapshot document on IIS?

WebMaster...please help.

Hi guys, sorry, missed the replies on this topic.

The printerfriendly versions of (all) our TechNotes are currently not available. Most of them, including the 70-290, will be available again after the weekend, the rest within about 10 days, probably on Feb 2nd. I apologize for any inconvenience this causes.

geat job for this
I wonder what is the best material to prepare for the exam.
By your experience the best is it :
1- 70-290 - Sybex 2003 Environment Management and Maintenance
2- 70-290 Managing and Maintaining a Windows Server 2003 Environment
3- Testout 290

My factory is already working with 2003 and the OS client is windows2000 sooner they will migrate to vista - I'm alreay certified on 70-620.

I'm new hire and i need to understand the 2003 very well

Please advice me

I get a 404 whenever I click on "Members-only Printer-friendly version" the only one working is "Managing Groups" but I just went ahead and printed the others not really a big deal just a waste of ink

Just reading through the Remote dekstop one. I could be wrong here, but I thought remote desktop was enabled by default. I'll have to check when I get home tonight.

Previously the printer friendly links weren't working. I made the mistake of thinking that he was just talking about the links to the Notes. They are working now though

Enable or disable Remote Desktop: Terminal Services Client (Remote Desktop)

It is disabled by default. Towards the bottom of this article it states that.

If Technet says it, it must be true.

Thanks for the link

Not exactly

READ
Read permission allows a user to read the files, list the contents of folders, subfolders and volumes, and read the attributes, permissions and ownership. A user with only Read permission will not able to change the contents of the file or folder

LIST CONTENTS
List Contents permission applies to folders only. It allows user to read files and list the contents of folders and volumes. Users with this permissions can see the files and folders, but cannot read or modify them nor can the create new files and folders
