Demo Question 20.

You work as the network administrator at EliteCertify.com. The EliteCertify.com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named EliteCertify.com. All servers on the EliteCertify.com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client computers run Windows XP Professional. EliteCertify.com has its headquarters in Chicago and branch offices in Dallas and Miami. A EliteCertify.com user named Amy Walsh is a member of the Research and Development department at the Dallas branch office. One morning Amy Walsh complains that her client computer named EliteCertify -WS291 cannot connect to a remote VPN server named EliteCertify -SR12.

A. Run the update.exe command from a command prompt.
B. Run the wmic qfe command from the command prompt.

Answer: B

Explanation: WMIC extends WMI for operation from several command-line interfaces and through batch scripts. WMI is a WBEM-compliant utility for accessing management information in a network. Its command line interface is WMIC. WMIC uses aliases, switches, verbs and parameters to obtain information from a computer system. Because WMIC can connect to any computer remotely, Administrators can perform remote administration with WMI and WMIC. This is the ideal solution to determine which hotfixes are installed on Amy Walsh's computer. Incorrect Options: A. Running the update.exe command installs hotfixes; it will not allow you to see which hotfixes has already been installed. C. Viewing the History-synch.xml file does not necessarily synchronize the server and have connecting ability with the EliteCertify -SR12. It just gives you the ability to view the synchronization log. D. Viewing the History-approve.xml file will not enable Amy Walsh to connect to the VPN server. It is the approval log that you will be viewing. Reference: Deborah Littlejohn Shinder, Dr. Thomas W.
