You are the manager for Windows servers at your company.

You are the network administrator of a network that spans three locations, Atlanta, Chicago, and Denver. Your organization started in Atlanta, and that’s where you installed your first Active Directory domain controller. The Chicago and Denver locations were later added to the domain with their own domain controllers. These three locations each have their own subnet and are connected using dedicated WAN links.   You have used Active Directory Sites and Services to change to the name of the Default-First-Site-Name to Atlanta, but that’s all you’ve done so far. The IT manager wants you to continue configuring Active Directory Sites and Services to direct clients to local network resources for authentication. He does not want you to manage replication traffic at this time. Which of the following steps must you perform to complete this configuration? (Select three.) 

You are an administrator for a company that uses Windows servers. In addition to Active Directory, you also provide file and print services, DHCP, DNS, and email services. There is a single domain and a single site. There are two member servers, one that handles file and print services only, and one database server. You are considering adding additional servers as business increases.   Your company produces mass mailings for its customers. The mailing list and contact information provided to your company by its clients is strictly confidential. Because of the private information sometimes contained in the data (one of your clients is a hospital), and because of the importance of the data to your operation, the data can also be considered a trade secret. You want to ensure the data stored on your member servers is only accessed by authorized personnel for business purposes. You’ve set file permissions to restrict access, but you want to track the authorized users. How should you configure your security policy to track access to the data files?

You have a folder on your Windows server that you would like to share with members of your development team. Users should be able to view and edit any file in the shared folder.   You share the folder and give everyone full control permission to the shared folder.   Users connect to the shared folder and report that they can open the files, but they cannot modify any of the files. What should you do?
