• RSoP is the sum of the policies applied to the user or computer, including the
application of filters (security groups, WMI) and exceptions (No Override, Block
Policy Inheritance).
• Windows Server 2003 provides three tools for generating RSoP queries: the Resultant Set Of Policy Wizard, the Gpresult command-line tool, and the Advanced Sys¬
tem Information-Policy tool.
• The Resultant Set Of Policy Wizard uses existing GPO settings to report the effects
of GPOs on users and computers and can simulate the effects of planned GPOs.
The wizard's Logging mode reports the existing GPO settings for a user or com¬
puter. Its Planning mode simulates the GPO settings that a user and computer
might receive, and it enables you to change the simulation.
• The Gpresult command-line tool enables you to create and display an RSoP query
on the command line.
• The Advanced System Information-Policy tool enables you to create an RSoP
query and view the results in an HTML report that appears in the Help And Sup-
port Center window.

To view GPO revision information associated with an RSoP query, complete the following steps:
1. In the desired RSoP query console, expand the user account-RSoP or the computer
account— RSoP node. Right-click User Configuration or Computer Configuration, and
then click Properties.
2. In the User Configuration Properties or the Computer Configuration Properties
dialog box, in the General tab, shown in Figure 11-13, select the Display Revision
Information check box. The location of the revision information for the GPOs
appears in the Revision column.
Computer Configuration Properties dialog box, displaying revision information Reusing RSoP Queries Generated with the Resultant Set Of Policy Wizard
As discussed earlier in this lesson, you can reuse saved RSoP queries. To reuse an RSoP query, simply open the appropriate RSoP query console from the Administrative Tools menu. The query regenerates and displays the new query results on the console. If you open an RSoP console that contains archived data, you receive a message identifying the console as containing archived data.
Note If the query is generated in Logging mode, and you change the settings in a GPO and then rerun the RSoP query, you do not see the new GPO settings reflected for a user unless the user logs on after the new GPO settings are implemented.

There are several RSoP Planning mode options. Each option can be run separately or in conjunction with the other options, allowing for a wide range of simulation results. As you progress through the Resultant Set Of Policy Wizard, the Planning mode options are presented to you in the following order:
1. Slow-network connection. This option simulates a slow connection. A con-
nection is slow if the rate at which data is transferred (from the domain controller
that provides a policy update to the computers in this group) is slower than the
rate that is specified by this GPO. The system's response to a slow policy connection varies among policies.
2. Loopback processing. This option simulates enabling of the GPO setting User
Group Policy Loopback Processing Mode, located in Computer Configuration,
Administrative Templates, System, Group Policy. The simulation can be set to
Merge or Replace. Select Merge to simulate the appending of the GPO list
obtained for the computer at computer startup to the GPO list obtained for the
user. Select Replace to simulate replacement of the GPO list for the user -with the
GPO list already obtained for the computer at computer startup.
3- Site name. This option simulates the application of alternate subnets for startup or logging on, enabling you to predict the RSoP if the subnet is changed.
4. Alternate user and computer locations. This option simulates the application
of alternate locations for both users and computers, enabling you to predict the
RSoP if the user and/or computer is moved.
5. Alternate user and computer security groups. This option simulates the
application of alternate security groups to both computer and user configurations,
enabling you to predict the RSoP using security groups to filter GPO scope.
6. WMI filters for users and computers. This option simulates the use of WMI
filters to help define the policy settings that are applied, enabling you to predict the RSoP using WMI queries to filter GPO scope.
Exam Tip Make sure you understand the differences between using RSoP in Logging mode and in Planning mode.

Since we posted MCSE 70-270 exam TechNotes(1) about installing XP Professional,it has been a long time .However ,on that post ,we did not list or post all of the explanation to the topic areas for this exam .When you read through that post , you still can not pass MCSA 70-270 exam for sure.Although we once post an article about 70-270 study guide ,there are just some common questions such as passing score, how to choose best materials or resources ,which practice tests are better,and so on.To help us better understand XP technology or get high scores in this exam ,we will post all of my study notes to all objectives.If you are confused or have problems ,you can tell us or you can via Microsoft TechNet to get better answers .
Disks formatted with the FAT file system can be accessed by MS-DOS, all versions of Windows, and OS/2. The maximum supported volume size is 4 GB, the maximum file size is 2 GB.
The faster file system FAT32, is often used in multi-boot situations with operating systems that do not support NTFS. Disks formatted with the FAT32 file system are supported by Windows 95 OSR2, Windows 98 and ME, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. Windows NT 4 and earlier cannot access FAT32 volumes. The maximum supported volume size for FAT32 is 2 TB, but Windows XP can format up to 32 GB only. The maximum file size is 4 GB. The minimum size for a FAT32 volume is 512 MB. You cannot format removable media such as floppy disks with Disks formatted with NTFS version 5 can only be accessed by Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 4 or higher, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. NTFS supports a volume size over 2 TB and the maximum file size is limited only by the available free space. You cannot format removable media such as floppy disks with NTFS. Besides being able to handle large disks,
NTFS is the preferred file system for Windows 2000 and XP because of the extra features it offers, including:
- File and folder permissions – (discussed below)
- File and folder compression – (discussed below)
- Encrypted File System (EFS) – (see EFS TechNotes)
- Disk Quotas – Allows quotas to be assigned to users for disk space usages per volume. Quotas are only available on NTFS volumes and can be enabled and configured on the Quotatab on a volume’s Properties sheet.
This is the file system used on compact discs. You cannot format regular disks with this file system.
Converting File Systems.
You can convert FAT file systems to NTFS using the following command: convert c: /fs:ntfs
The convert utility cannot be used to convert from NTFS to another file system. For example if you converted a FAT32 partition to NTFS and you want to revert it back to FAT32,you will have to create a full backup, reformat the drive with FAT32, and restore the backup.
FILE AND FOLDER COMPRESSION.
NTFS Compression allows compression of individual files and folders, as well as entire NTFS drives. The process of compression and decompression is transparent to the user. For example, when a user opens a document from a NTFS compressed disk, the document is decompressed automatically, when the user saves the document it is compressed again. Thisprocess might decrease your computer’s performance; it’s best to compress static data and only if it really saves space, you don’t want to waste CPU cycles compressing a ZIPfile for example. An NTFS-compressed file cannot be encrypted, and an encrypted file cannot be compressed. If you do enable compression for an encrypted file, the file will lose it’s encryption attribute before it is compressed.
You can enable compression for a volume when you format it. To enable compression on an existing volume, right-click it and choose Properties from the context menu, on theGeneral tab enable the option Compress drive to save disk space. To compress a file or folder, right-click it and choose Properties from the context menu, click the Advanced button and below Compress and Encrypt attributes enable the option Compress contents to save disk space. When you enable compression on a folder or volume, Windows will ask if you want to enable compression for all the files and subfolders in the folder or volume as well. Besides using Windows Exporer, you can also use the command compact to compress or decompress a file or folder.

As Table indicates, the storage formats deliver different lines of resolution. Resolution is a measure
of an image’s quality. From the viewer’s perspective, an image with higher resolution yields sharper
picture quality than a lower resolution image.
Most consumer televisions display roughly 330 lines of horizontal resolution. Broadcast
environments typically used high-end cameras to capture video. These cameras and their associated
storage formats can deliver horizontal resolutions of approximately 700 lines. Each time a copy is
made, the copied image loses some of its resolution.When an image is recorded in high-resolution,
multiple generations of the video can be copied without a noticeable difference. When an image is
recorded in a lower resolution, there is less room to manipulate the image before the viewer notices
the effects.
Digitizing video involves taking an analog video signal and converting it to a digital video stream
using a video capture board, as shown in Figure 13-4. Today, a variety of computer platforms,
including PC, Macintosh, and UNIX workstations, offer video capture capabilities. In some cases,
though, the capture equipment is a third-party add-on. The analog video source can be stored in any
video storage format or it can be a live video feed from a camera. The source can be connected to
the video capture card using any three connectors types (component, S-Video, or composite)
depending on the connector type that the card supports.

Worth knowing, too, when preparing for the test. Because this book’s
material is very condensed, we recommend that you use this book along
with other resources to achieve the maximum benefit.
In addition to the alerts, we provide tips that will help you build a better
foundation for Windows Server 2003 knowledge. Although the tip information
might not be on the exam, it is certainly related and it will help
you become a better-informed test taker.
This is how tips are formatted. Keep your eyes open for these, and you’ll become a
Windows Server 2003 guru in no time!
This is how notes are formatted. Notes direct your attention to important pieces of information
that relate to Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft certification.
. Exam prep questions—Although we talk about test questions and topics
throughout the book, the section at the end of each chapter presents a
series of mock test questions and explanations of both correct and incorrect
answers.
. Details and resources—Every chapter ends with a section titled “Need to
Know More?” That section provides direct pointers to Microsoft and
third-party resources that offer more details on the chapter’s subject. In
addition, that section tries to rank or at least rate the quality and thoroughness
of the topic’s coverage by each resource. If you find a resource
you like in that collection, you should use it, but you shouldn’t feel compelled
to use all the resources. On the other hand, we recommend only
resources that we use on a regular basis, so none of our recommendations
will be a waste of your time or money (but purchasing them all at
once probably represents an expense that many network administrators
and Microsoft certification candidates might find hard to justify).
The bulk of the book follows this chapter structure, but we’d like to point out a
few other elements. Chapters 21 and 23, “Practice Exam 1” and “Practice Exam
2,” provide good reviews of the material presented throughout the book to
ensure that you’re ready for the exam. Chapters 22 and 24, “Answers to Practice
Exam 1” and “Answers to Practice Exam 2,” offer the correct answers to thequestions on the sample tests that appear in Chapters 21 and 23. Appendix A,
“Suggested Readings and Resources,” offers you several books and websites that
contain useful information on Windows Server 2003. Appendix B, “Accessing
Your Free MeasureUp Practice Test—Including Networking Simulation!” and
Appendix C, “MeasureUp’s Product Features,” provide helpful information
about how to get access to and then take even more practice exams. Finally,
you’ll find a handy glossary and an index.
Finally, the tear-out Cram Sheet attached next to the inside front cover of this
Exam Cram book represents a condensed and compiled collection of facts and
tips that we think are essential for you to memorize before taking the test.
Because you can dump this information out of your head onto a sheet of paper
before taking the exam, you can master this information by brute force; you
need to remember it only long enough to write it down when you walk into the
testing room. You might even want to look at it in the car or in the lobby of the
testing center just before you walk in to take the exam.
How to Use This Book
We’ve structured the topics in this book to build on one another. Therefore,
some topics in later chapters make the most sense after you’ve read earlier chapters.
That’s why we suggest that you read this book from front to back for your
initial test preparation. If you need to brush up on a topic or if you have to bone
up for a second try, you can use the index or table of contents to go straight to
the topics and questions that you need to study. Beyond helping you prepare for
the test, we think you’ll find this book useful as a tightly focused reference to
some of the most important aspects of Windows Server 2003.
The book uses the following typographical conventions:
. Command-line strings that are meant to be typed into the computer are
displayed in monospace text.
. New terms are introduced in italics.
Given all the book’s elements and its specialized focus, we’ve tried to create a tool
that will help you prepare for—and pass—Microsoft 70-270 Exam. Please share
with us your feedback on the book, especially if you have ideas about how we can
improve it for future test takers.
