Task 1Explore Folder Permissions

Step 1 : Explore folder permissions Action: a. Log on to server with a password of Password! (remember the exclamation point)b. Click Start then click Computer to open the Windows Explorer window. Create a folder called Test inside the Users folder on drive C:, then create a folder called Utilities inside Test.c. Right-click Utilities, click Properties, then click the Security tab. Notice the grayed check marks. These are inherited permissions.d. Click Edit. Now you have the ability to change the permissions. You cannot change the ones that are currently checked and deactivated because they are inherited. Remember that Deny permissions override Allow permissions.e. Click the Add button, then the Advanced Button. Click the Find Now button and scroll down to Server Operators and highlight it. Click OK twice to get back to the Properties window. Click the Allow box for Modify. Insert a screen shot showing the permissions for Server Operator = #1. Then click OK.f. Now we want to get rid of the inherited permissions. From the Security tab of the Properties window, click the Advanced button.g. Click the Edit button and then remove the check mark from the box for “Include inheritable permissions from this object’s parent”. If we wanted to modify some of the inherited permissions, you would just click “Copy”. We want all of them removed so click the Remove button.h. Click OK twice until you are back at the Utilities Properties window. Insert a screen shot of the utilities Properties window – #2. Click OK.Result: You have given the Server Operators group the modify permission and taken away inheritance.

Step 1 : Prepare for Sharing Files Action: a. Create a user based on your name. If you forget how, check out last week’s lab or the text. b. There is already a student user with the user name of student and the password of Password!c. Create two domain local groups. One called Networking and the other called Accounting. Again, if you forget how, last week’s lab will help or the text. d. Make yourself a member of Networking, and student a member of Accounting.e.

Click the down arrow next to Reader and select Contributor. This will allow changes.d. Click the Share button. e. A window appears showing it has been shared as \\SRV-1\Reports. The standard format is \\ + the server name + the share name. (A bit of trivia: This is exactly the same syntax as when Microsoft first started networking in the mid 1980s). f. Click Done. Notice that the icon for the Reports folder has changed a bit. If you look real close, you will see the “group” symbol of two heads. I prefer the symbol in the previous versions which was a hand underneath the folder.g. Double-click the Reports folder to open it. In the right pane, right-click and select New then Text Document, Name the document November.h. Minimize the server window.Result: You have shared a folder called Reports with a file called November.txt.Step 4 : Allow user to log on from Windows 7 Action: Because ElementK is a remote enviornment, we first have to allow the user to log on remotely.Before you go through the following, restart the Windows 7 PC by clicking the Send Ctrl-Alt-Delete button, clicking the red arrow in the lower right, and clicking Restart.

Insert a screen shot showing that the drive is R: and the size is 1 KB – #5.Result: You have mapped drives from Windows 7

Task 3Use Distributed File System

Step 1 : Add the Distributed File System RoleThere is a major problem with the standard way of sharing files. For example, what if you need to move the share to another server? All the mapped drives would have to be changed. With DFS, shares just refer to the domain name. The administrator can put the folders anywhere in the domain.Action: a. On the server, open Server Manager, expand Roles, click File Services. In the right panel, scroll down until you see Add Role Services. Click it.b. Select the check box next to Distributed File System. Notice that the other two boxes are selected too. Click Next.c. For a namespace, type Management. This represents a group of common shares in the domain. Click Next.d. We want the default domain-based namespace to give us the capability of easy administration. Click Next.e. Click the Add button, click the Browse button, click the Show Shared Folders button, then click Reports. Click OK until you are back to the “Configure Namespace” window.f. Click Next.h. Click Install and be patient. i. Click Close when done.j. Log on to Windows 7 using the student user called experimental\student. Map a drive to \\experimental.lab\Management\Reports.k. After you click Finish insert a screen shot showing the November text file the letter Z: in the text box at the top of the window – #6. Notice that the location is now based on the domain name.Result: You have mapped a drive from Windows 7 using DFS
