Hey everyone,

I have a few questions for a class I am taking that I need some help answering. So, thanks in advance for any and all help!

1. Why is the Account the best place to check when a user is having difficulty with the logon process?

2. What are the advantages of using shadow copies?

3. What are the advantages of using disk quotas?

Thanks again for the help,

Andrew
 
hi.

1) Your question is not really understandable... anyway... if I have problems with logon process, first of all I need to determine if I'm trying to login into a domain or locally. If on domain: check network settings (DNS and so on), if locally: maybe the account has been locked. Second, I will check permissions and so on.

2) You can backup (or better, COPY) files while they're in use...

3) If you don't use disk quota, a user could use all the space available. Now, let's say you have 10 users, each user has its own holiday's pictures, each picture is 15 MB and each person has 20 pictures. 20 pictures * 10 users = 200 pictures * 15 MB = 3000 MB = 3 GB well... not bad having 3 gb of photos on your file server... with quotas you can easily decide how much space can use a single (or group) of users.
