Case Study 1

Background

Neo Press is a large publishing company that publishes books on a variety of different computing topics. Neo Press is acquiring one of its printing companies. The printing company, Pisces Printing, has its own domain and Internet presence. Pisces Printing currently uses the domain name of piscesprinting.com. The company will continue to operate independently of Neo Press.

Organization

The corporate headquarters is located in Los Angeles. There are approximately500 users located in this office including the IT department. The company has three regional offices located in New York, Chicago, and Vancouver. Several branch sales offices exist in Boston, Columbus, and Denver, and each sales office connects to the closest regional office. Each regional office has approximately 200 users. Branch offices host approximately 50 users each.

Existing LAN/WAN Environment

Most client computers run Windows 95. New computers in the corporate headquarters run Windows 2000 Professional. All mobile computers run Windows XP Professional. All servers run Windows NT 4.0. DHCP, DNS, and WINS servers are located in the headquarters office and regional offices.

Each of the regional offices connects to the corporate headquarters office using 1.544-Mbps lines. Each sales office connects to its closest regional office using 56-Kbps lines.

Currently, two Windows NT 4.0 domains exist. The corporate, regional, and branch offices are all part of the same domain (NeoPressNA). For security purposes, the accounting department has been configured in its own domain (NeoPressAcc).

Each domain has different password requirements. Users in the NeoPressNA domain are required to change their password every 42 days, whereas users in the NeoPressAcc domain are required to change their password every 30 days.

Active Directory Commentary

CEO: We recently acquired a new printing company. This company should remain independent of our

company. The printing company will continue to use its own IT group and administer its own users and resources. However, the two companies must be able to share resources. We would like to maintain a single global directory for both companies.

(7)

IT Manager: There are currently too many users with administrative authority. Many of these users are

inexperienced. We would like to reduce technical support overhead by limiting the administrative ability of local administrators.

Answers: A, C

Explanation A. The domain is the security boundary within Active Directory. A

password policy must be configured at the domain level. Unique password policy requirements will therefore impact the number of domains.

Explanation B. Active Directory can support millions of objects; therefore, the number

of users will not impact the number of domains created.

Explanation C. If certain areas within an organization require autonomy, this will

impact the number of domains that are created.

Explanation D. Resources can be shared within a domain, between domains, and

between forests with the appropriate trusts established. Therefore, the need to share resources will not impact the number of domains created.
