Answers

1.	B. The only two answers listed that are directory services are NTDS and NDS. Of those two, the only one that is an X.500-compliant directory service is NDS.
2.	A, B, D. All of the NOSes listed, except NetWare 4, have a graphical interface. Unix has X Windows, NetWare 5 has the Graphical Java Console, and Windows NT Server uses a Windows-based interface.
3.	B. Novell Client for Windows 95 is Novell’s NetWare client for the Windows 95 platform. It enables a Windows 95 machine to access the full range of NetWare (and NDS) services.
4.	B, C. Novell Client for Windows 95 (as previously mentioned) and Microsoft Client for Microsoft Networks will allow the station to access Windows NT servers.
5.	B. Because Windows NT Server manages users and groups in domains, the name of the administration program is User Manager for Domains.
6.	C. Although all of the listed utilities are administration utilities of some type, the name of the administration program for modifying NDS objects in NetWare 4 and above is NetWare Administrator.
7.	A. The NetWare Loadable Module (NLM) component of a NetWare server is the modular component of a NetWare server that can help conserve memory by being loaded and unloaded as necessary.
8.	D. The NT Directory Service (NTDS) is the directory service used by default by Windows NT.
9.	A. Novell Directory Services (NDS) is the default directory service used by NetWare 4 and later.
10.	A, B, C, D. All the operating systems listed are available in one form or another for the Intel platform.
11.	A, C, D. For the Network+ exam, you should know that Windows NT supports Intel 386, DEC Alpha, and the PowerPC platform (even though some of these platforms have been dropped since Network+ came out).
12.	B, C. Unix has two main methods of interacting with users: through a text-based command line and through a graphical interface.
13.	A, C. The Microsoft Client for Microsoft Networks will allow the clients to access the Windows NT Server. The Novell Client for Windows 95/98 will allow the clients to access the NetWare servers.
14.	B, C, E. The only platforms that NDS runs on natively are NetWare 4.x and 5.x and Solaris. NDS will not run natively on NetWare 3.x. Native NDS support for Windows NT is planned, but it’s not on the exam at the time of this writing.
15.	C. The most current version of Windows NT for the Network+ exam is version 4.
16.	B. Disk driver NLMs provide the interface between the core operating system and the disk subsystem hardware (including disk drives and controllers).
17.	A. LAN drivers are the NLMs that provide the interface between the Network Interface Card (NIC) and the NetWare core OS.
18.	C. Name space modules make it possible to store different types of files on the NetWare file system.
19.	B. Although all of the listed distributions have ports to the Intel platform, the Slackware distribution was developed specifically for the Intel platform.
20.	B. The main command-line interface in Unix is known as a shell.
