Case Scenario Exercise

 < Day Day Up > 



Your manager has asked you to manage the security configurations of the 10 servers and 150 portable and desktop computers in your Active Directory domain environment. In the past, computers have been compromised because end users modified the security configurations of their computers. Your manager wants the solution you create to ensure that end users cannot reduce the security of their computers.

Most servers perform multiple tasks. In total, your 10 servers perform the following roles:

  • Six file servers

  • Three domain controllers

  • Three mail servers

  • Two external Web servers

  • Two internal Web servers

  • Two proxy servers

  • Four database servers

Though you have been pushing management to fund upgrades for all portable and desktop systems, you still have many older operating systems in use. Of the 150 portable and desktop computers, you have:

  • 120 computers running Windows XP Professional

  • 10 computers running Windows NT Workstation 4.0

  • 5 computers running Windows XP Home Edition

  • 7 computers running Windows 2000 Professional

  • 4 computers running Windows Millennium Edition

  • 4 computers running Windows 95
