70-292 Managing and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Environment for a W2K MCSA Testking Exam

Demo Question 5.

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. The EliteCertify.com network is connected to the Internet. A firewall protects the internal network for unauthorized Internet users. A file and print server named EliteCertify -SR08 has a shared printer installed. All users need to connect to EliteCertify -SR08 over the Internet. The current firewall configuration allows HTTP traffic to EliteCertify -SR08. You inform users to start sending print jobs to the shared printer on EliteCertify -SR08. Users complain that their print jobs are not printing. They report that they cannot connect to EliteCertify -SR08 by using HTTP. You verify that the proper permissions are configured for users to print to EliteCertify -SR08. You need to ensure that all users can send print jobs to the shared printer on EliteCertify -SR08. What should you do? Choose two correct answers. Each correct answer presents only part of the complete solution. Choose two.

A. Install and enable IIS on EliteCertify -SR08.
B. Publish the shared printer in Active Directory.
C. Install and enable Internet Printing on EliteCertify -SR08
D. On EliteCertify -SR08, create a new Web share named Printers.


Display Answer

Answer: A, C

Explanation: The two requirements to enable users to print to a shared printer over the Internet are as follows: 1. IIS must be installed on the server. 2. The Internet Printing component of IIS must be installed on the server. When you install Windows Server 2003, IIS is not automatically installed. When you install IIS, its Internet Printing component is not automatically installed either. You therefore have to install both IIS and its Internet Printing component before users will be able to successfully print their print jobs to the shared printer on EliteCertify -SR08. Incorrect answers: B. You do not have to publish a printer in Active Directory to enable users to print to it over the Internet. D. When you install the Internet Printing component of IIS, a new virtual folder named Printers is created by the installation routine. This means that you do not need to manually create the virtual folder. You can only create the virtual folder if IIS is installed!
