iLAB 2B OVERVIEW

Scenario and Summary

• You will add a user, log on as the user, create groups, and manage organizational units.

iLAB STEPS

TASK 1: Add User and Log On as User  STEP 1: Add User

Back to Top

Action

1. Log on to the server with a user name of administrator and a password of Password! (don’t forget the exclamation point).

2. In Server Manager (the icon next to the Start button), expand Roles -> Active Directory Domain Services -> Active Directory Users and Computer -> experimental.lab. Click Users.

3. Right-click the Users folder, select New, and then User.

4. Use your own first name and last name. For the user log-on name, type the first letter of your first name followed by your last name. Click Next.

5. For the password, type a password of your choice. To meet complexity requirements, it must be at least seven characters long and have characters in three out of the following four character sets: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters. Click Next. The summary appears with your name in it. Remember how to add a user. In future labs, you will have to know it.

6. Click Finish.

7. Minimize the server window.

STEP 2: Allow User to Log On; Then Log On as the User You Created

Back to Top

Because ElementK is a remote environment, we first have to allow the user to log on remotely. Before you go through the following, restart the Windows 7 PC by clicking the Send Ctrl-Alt-Delete button, clicking the red arrow in the lower right, and clicking Restart. Click OK at the error message, then close the window. After a minute or so, click the PC icon again.

Action

1. Log on to the PC (the icon on the right) as experimental\administrator. Naturally, because you are using the same user as when you logged on to the server, the password is the same too. If the “Set Network Location” window opens, click Work Network, then Close.

2. Click Start, right-click Computer, and click Properties. The System window opens.

3. In the left panel, click Remote settings.

4. Under Remote Desktop, click the Select Users button.

13. Click the Start icon. You should see your name in the upper right of the pop-up.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing your name (#7).

TASK 2: Create Groups   STEP 1: Create a Domain Local Group

Back to Top

The typical process for creating security groups is to put users in global groups and then put global groups in domain local groups. The domain local groups are then associated with resources, and specific access permissions are given at this level. This may seem like extra work, but when you have hundreds or thousands of users and many dozens of resources, this makes management much easier. Our objective is to create a domain local group called DomainMgrs. We will create a global group called GlobalMgrs. We will put the user based on your name in GlobalMgrs and then GlobalMgrs into DomainMgrs. In a later lab, we will associate permissions.

Action

1. Log on to the server as administrator, and open Server Manager.

2. Expand the left panel in Server Manager until you get to the users folder and click Users.

3. One way to create a new object in the highlighted container is to do the following: Click Action on the menu and then click New, and follow by clicking Group.

4. For the Group Name, type DomainMgrs and select Domain local under Group scope. Click OK.

STEP 2: Create the GlobalMgrs Group

Back to Top

Action

1. This time, right-click in a blank space in the middle panel, click New, and then click Group.

2. For the Group name, type GlobalMgrs and leave the default of Global for the group scope. Click OK.

3. Now we need to put the user based on your name into the GlobalMgrs group. Double-click GlobalMgrs, click the Members tab and then click Add.

4. Click the Advanced button, then Find Now button and then scroll until you see your name. Click on the your name, then click OK.

5. You should see your name in the text box. Click OK.

6. Now you have the user as a member of GlobalMgrs.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the username (#8).

1. Click OK. Remember how to create groups and add users! In future labs, you will have to know it.

2. We want to make GlobalMgrs a member of DomainMgrs, so double-click DomainMgrs, click the Members tab, and then click Add. Just type “G” in the text box, and when you click Check Names, all the objects beginning with “G” will display.

3. Select GlobalMgrs and click OK.

4. Click OK twice to get back to the screen that shows the contents of the user container in the middle panel.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing both groups in the middle panel (#9).

TASK 3: Manage Organizational Units   STEP 1: Create an Organizational Unit

Back to Top

Action

1. In Server Manager, expand Active Directory until you see the domain name.

2. Right-click experimental.lab, select New, and click Organizational Unit.

3. For the name, type Sales. Notice that by default “Protect container from accidental deletion” is checked. That is good. Click OK. The O is put in the left pane.

STEP 2: Create an OU and Delete It

Back to Top

Action

1. Create an OU based on your last name. Then try to delete it by right-clicking it and clicking Delete. Then, when it asks, “Are you sure,” click Yes. You will get a message stating that you have insufficient privileges.

2. Right-click on the OU based on your last name and click Properties. As you can see, there isn’t much.

3. On the menu, click View, then click Advanced Features.

4. Right-click the OU with your last name, click Properties, and then click Object. Uncheck “Protect object from accidental deletion.”

Insert a screenshot into your lab report (#10).

1. Click OK. Now delete the OU based on your last name.

STEP 3: Make User With Your Name the Manager of the Sales OU

Back to Top

Action

1. Open the Users container, and drag the user with your name to the Sales OU. A dialog box opens. It is stating that OUs have different group policies so the user may have different rights. Don’t worry about it. We will cover group policies later. Click Yes.

2. Now we want to delegate some administrative privileges to the user in the container. Right-click on the Sales container, and click Delegate Control… A wizard opens.

3. Click Next.

4. Click Add. In the text box, you can just type your first name and click Check Names. Select your name and click OK.

5. Click Next. The Tasks to Delegate dialog box opens.

6. Check the first two items in the list to delegate, which are “Create, delete and manage user accounts” and “Reset user passwords and force password change at next logon.” Click Next.

7. Scroll down to see all the information.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing your name and the delegations (#11).

1. Click Finish.

Once delegated, you might wonder how a user can, for example, reset a password for another user in the OU. You probably don’t want to give the user log-on privileges on the server. Another alternative is to have the user download the “Remote Server Administration Tools Windows 7.” (That is beyond the scope of this course.)

iLAB OVERVIEW

Scenario and Summary

• Before beginning work, connect to your virtual lab platform (Skillsoft / Element K).

• You will create a DNS zone and a host, create a web server, and set up DCHP on a network.

Additional Resource

You may find this resource helpful as you prepare to complete the lab.

• Network Services

iLAB STEPS

TASK 1: Create a DNS Zone and a Host   STEP 1: Create a New Zone

Back to Top

When Active Directory was created, a DNS server was installed to keep track of the computers that were added to the A domain. Now you are going to create a new domain. In DNS terms, you are going to create a new zone. The zone will be based your first and last name to show you the flexibility in naming private zones.

Action

1. Log on to server with a user name of Administrator and a password of Password!.

2. In Server Manager expand Roles -> DNS Server -> DNS -> SRV-1 and highlight Forward Lookup, right-click it, and then click New Zone.

3. The New Zone Wizard opens. Click Next.

4. Leave the default of Primary Zone and click Next.

5. Leave the default of replicating to all DNS servers in the domain and click Next.

6. For a zone, create one based on your first and last name, separated by a dot (e.g., Mary.Noia). Click Next.

7. Select Do not allow dynamic updates, because we are going to create our own entry. Click Next.

8. The summary is displayed. Click Finish.

9. Unfortunately, there can be problems refreshing the zone. The easiest thing to do is click Forward Zone in the left panel and double-click the zone based on your name. In the middle panel right-click and you should see a list of items. (You may have to close and then open Server Manager.) Click New Host (A or AAAA)…

10. For the Name, type “www” and use the IP address of the server, which should be 192.168.1.14. Click Done.

11. Log on to Windows 7, open a command prompt, and type “ping www.” followed by the zone name based on your name, as in “ping www.jane.doe.” Press Enter.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the ping (#1).

TASK 2: Create a Web Server   STEP 1: Add a Web Server

Back to Top

Action

1. In Server Manager right-click Roles and click Add Roles. Click Next to get past the introduction window.

2. Click Web Server (IIS) and click Next.

3. The overview screen opens that describes the web server. Click Add Features and click Next. The introduction is displayed. Click Next.

4. The default settings are displayed. This is where we can customize the settings based on the features we want. We will leave the defaults. Click Next.

5. Click Install. The initializing portion of the install can take a few minutes.

6. After a few minutes, you should see the Installation Result window. Click Close.

7. Click on Web Server IIS in the left panel.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the roles summary that contains the web server (#2).

   STEP 2: Create a Web Page and View It

Back to Top

Action

1. On the server, open Notepad. Click Start, and then click All Programs, then Accessories to find Notepad.

2. Type some words that will become the contents of the home page of your web server. There is no need to know any HTML. Just type the text.

3. Save the text to C:\inetpub\wwwroot. The file name must be default.htm and the Save as type must be All Files. If you don’t change it to All files, Notepad will add a .txt to the end and your page won’t display.

4. Log on to Windows 7 and open the browser. For the URL, type “www.” followed by the zone name that you created based on your name, as in www.jane.doe. You should see the text that you created in Notepad.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the web page with the URL based on your name (#3).

TASK 3: Set Up DHCP on a Network   STEP 1: Set Up a DHCP Server

Back to Top

In most networks, IP addresses are leased to client devices by a DCHP server. When a computer or other device connects to the network and is set up to use DCHP, it broadcasts a packet to search for a DHCP server. The server responds with the IP address and other configuration information. In this lab, you will set up a DHCP server. In Windows 7, you will change the configuration of the network adapter from a static IP address to one using DHCP.

Action

1. In Server Manager right-click Roles, click Add Roles, and click Next to get past the Before You Begin window.

2. Select DHCP Server. Notice that the left panel files with the steps you have to go through to set up DHCP. Click Next.

3. You will see an overview. Click Next to display the Specify OPv4 DNS Server Settings window.

4. It displays the IP address on the network that we want to use for DHCP. Click Next.

5. It fills in the fact that it is associated with an Active Directory domain and it has a DNS server at this address. Click Next.

6. WINS is a protocol from the 1990s, when some computer programs only referenced computer names instead of IP addresses. We definitely don’t need it. Click Next.

7. Now you are at the Add or Edit DHCP Scopes window. Click Add and fill in the boxes as follows.

1. Scope name: LAN

2. Starting IP address: 192.168.1.101

3. Ending IP address: 192.168.1.200

4. Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

5. Default gateway: (leave blank)

6. Subnet type: Wired

7. Basically, it tells the server to assign addresses in the range of 192.168.1.101 to 192.168.1.200. (For this exercise you really don’t need 10 addresses, but it is more realistic.)

8. The scope name could be anything.

9. Click OK, then Next.

8. We don’t care about DCHPv6, so click Disable DHCPv6 stateless mode for this server.

9. Click Next.

10. We need to authorize the DHCP server. Leave the defaults and click Next.

11. Click Install, and after a while you will get the Installation Results message. You will also probably get a warning that automatic updates are not enabled. That is okay.

   STEP 2: Configure DHCP on Windows 7

Back to Top

Action

1. Log on to Windows 7 as experimental\administrator.

2. In the Control Panel, click the View network status and tasks link under Network and Internet.

3. In the left panel click Change adapter settings.

4. Right-click Local Area Connection experimental.lab and click Properties.

5. Highlight Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click the Properties button.

6. Select Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically. Click OK and close the windows.

7. Click the Start icon, and in the text box type cmd and press Enter. At the command prompt type “ipconfig /all,” press Enter, and expand the window to see all the information. You can see the IP address of the DHCP server along with the lease information.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the ipconfig information, including the DHCP server (#4).

iLAB 2B OVERVIEW

Scenario and Summary

• You will add a user, log on as the user, create groups, and manage organizational units.

iLAB STEPS

TASK 1: Add User and Log On as User  STEP 1: Add User

Back to Top

Action

1. Log on to the server with a user name of administrator and a password of Password! (don’t forget the exclamation point).

2. In Server Manager (the icon next to the Start button), expand Roles -> Active Directory Domain Services -> Active Directory Users and Computer -> experimental.lab. Click Users.

3. Right-click the Users folder, select New, and then User.

6. Click Finish.

7. Minimize the server window.

STEP 2: Allow User to Log On; Then Log On as the User You Created

Back to Top

Because ElementK is a remote environment, we first have to allow the user to log on remotely. Before you go through the following, restart the Windows 7 PC by clicking the Send Ctrl-Alt-Delete button, clicking the red arrow in the lower right, and clicking Restart. Click OK at the error message, then close the window. After a minute or so, click the PC icon again.

Action

1. Log on to the PC (the icon on the right) as experimental\administrator. Naturally, because you are using the same user as when you logged on to the server, the password is the same too. If the “Set Network Location” window opens, click Work Network, then Close.

2. Click Start, right-click Computer, and click Properties. The System window opens.

3. In the left panel, click Remote settings.

4. Under Remote Desktop, click the Select Users button.

13. Click the Start icon. You should see your name in the upper right of the pop-up.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing your name (#7).

TASK 2: Create Groups   STEP 1: Create a Domain Local Group

Back to Top

The typical process for creating security groups is to put users in global groups and then put global groups in domain local groups. The domain local groups are then associated with resources, and specific access permissions are given at this level. This may seem like extra work, but when you have hundreds or thousands of users and many dozens of resources, this makes management much easier. Our objective is to create a domain local group called DomainMgrs. We will create a global group called GlobalMgrs. We will put the user based on your name in GlobalMgrs and then GlobalMgrs into DomainMgrs. In a later lab, we will associate permissions.

Action

1. Log on to the server as administrator, and open Server Manager.

2. Expand the left panel in Server Manager until you get to the users folder and click Users.

3. One way to create a new object in the highlighted container is to do the following: Click Action on the menu and then click New, and follow by clicking Group.

4. For the Group Name, type DomainMgrs and select Domain local under Group scope. Click OK.

STEP 2: Create the GlobalMgrs Group

Back to Top

Action

1. This time, right-click in a blank space in the middle panel, click New, and then click Group.

2. For the Group name, type GlobalMgrs and leave the default of Global for the group scope. Click OK.

3. Now we need to put the user based on your name into the GlobalMgrs group. Double-click GlobalMgrs, click the Members tab and then click Add.

4. Click the Advanced button, then Find Now button and then scroll until you see your name. Click on the your name, then click OK.

5. You should see your name in the text box. Click OK.

6. Now you have the user as a member of GlobalMgrs.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the username (#8).

1. Click OK. Remember how to create groups and add users! In future labs, you will have to know it.

2. We want to make GlobalMgrs a member of DomainMgrs, so double-click DomainMgrs, click the Members tab, and then click Add. Just type “G” in the text box, and when you click Check Names, all the objects beginning with “G” will display.

3. Select GlobalMgrs and click OK.

4. Click OK twice to get back to the screen that shows the contents of the user container in the middle panel.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing both groups in the middle panel (#9).

TASK 3: Manage Organizational Units   STEP 1: Create an Organizational Unit

Back to Top

Action

1. In Server Manager, expand Active Directory until you see the domain name.

2. Right-click experimental.lab, select New, and click Organizational Unit.

3. For the name, type Sales. Notice that by default “Protect container from accidental deletion” is checked. That is good. Click OK. The O is put in the left pane.

STEP 2: Create an OU and Delete It

Back to Top

Action

1. Create an OU based on your last name. Then try to delete it by right-clicking it and clicking Delete. Then, when it asks, “Are you sure,” click Yes. You will get a message stating that you have insufficient privileges.

2. Right-click on the OU based on your last name and click Properties. As you can see, there isn’t much.

3. On the menu, click View, then click Advanced Features.

4. Right-click the OU with your last name, click Properties, and then click Object. Uncheck “Protect object from accidental deletion.”

Insert a screenshot into your lab report (#10).

1. Click OK. Now delete the OU based on your last name.

STEP 3: Make User With Your Name the Manager of the Sales OU

Back to Top

Action

1. Open the Users container, and drag the user with your name to the Sales OU. A dialog box opens. It is stating that OUs have different group policies so the user may have different rights. Don’t worry about it. We will cover group policies later. Click Yes.

2. Now we want to delegate some administrative privileges to the user in the container. Right-click on the Sales container, and click Delegate Control… A wizard opens.

3. Click Next.

4. Click Add. In the text box, you can just type your first name and click Check Names. Select your name and click OK.

5. Click Next. The Tasks to Delegate dialog box opens.

6. Check the first two items in the list to delegate, which are “Create, delete and manage user accounts” and “Reset user passwords and force password change at next logon.” Click Next.

7. Scroll down to see all the information.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing your name and the delegations (#11).

1. Click Finish.

Once delegated, you might wonder how a user can, for example, reset a password for another user in the OU. You probably don’t want to give the user log-on privileges on the server. Another alternative is to have the user download the “Remote Server Administration Tools Windows 7.” (That is beyond the scope of this course.)

iLAB OVERVIEW

Scenario and Summary

• Before beginning work, connect to your virtual lab platform (Skillsoft / Element K).

• You will create a DNS zone and a host, create a web server, and set up DCHP on a network.

Additional Resource

You may find this resource helpful as you prepare to complete the lab.

• Network Services

iLAB STEPS

TASK 1: Create a DNS Zone and a Host   STEP 1: Create a New Zone

Back to Top

When Active Directory was created, a DNS server was installed to keep track of the computers that were added to the A domain. Now you are going to create a new domain. In DNS terms, you are going to create a new zone. The zone will be based your first and last name to show you the flexibility in naming private zones.

Action

1. Log on to server with a user name of Administrator and a password of Password!.

2. In Server Manager expand Roles -> DNS Server -> DNS -> SRV-1 and highlight Forward Lookup, right-click it, and then click New Zone.

3. The New Zone Wizard opens. Click Next.

4. Leave the default of Primary Zone and click Next.

5. Leave the default of replicating to all DNS servers in the domain and click Next.

6. For a zone, create one based on your first and last name, separated by a dot (e.g., Mary.Noia). Click Next.

7. Select Do not allow dynamic updates, because we are going to create our own entry. Click Next.

8. The summary is displayed. Click Finish.

9. Unfortunately, there can be problems refreshing the zone. The easiest thing to do is click Forward Zone in the left panel and double-click the zone based on your name. In the middle panel right-click and you should see a list of items. (You may have to close and then open Server Manager.) Click New Host (A or AAAA)…

10. For the Name, type “www” and use the IP address of the server, which should be 192.168.1.14. Click Done.

11. Log on to Windows 7, open a command prompt, and type “ping www.” followed by the zone name based on your name, as in “ping www.jane.doe.” Press Enter.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the ping (#1).

TASK 2: Create a Web Server   STEP 1: Add a Web Server

Back to Top

Action

1. In Server Manager right-click Roles and click Add Roles. Click Next to get past the introduction window.

2. Click Web Server (IIS) and click Next.

3. The overview screen opens that describes the web server. Click Add Features and click Next. The introduction is displayed. Click Next.

4. The default settings are displayed. This is where we can customize the settings based on the features we want. We will leave the defaults. Click Next.

5. Click Install. The initializing portion of the install can take a few minutes.

6. After a few minutes, you should see the Installation Result window. Click Close.

7. Click on Web Server IIS in the left panel.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the roles summary that contains the web server (#2).

   STEP 2: Create a Web Page and View It

Back to Top

Action

1. On the server, open Notepad. Click Start, and then click All Programs, then Accessories to find Notepad.

2. Type some words that will become the contents of the home page of your web server. There is no need to know any HTML. Just type the text.

3. Save the text to C:\inetpub\wwwroot. The file name must be default.htm and the Save as type must be All Files. If you don’t change it to All files, Notepad will add a .txt to the end and your page won’t display.

4. Log on to Windows 7 and open the browser. For the URL, type “www.” followed by the zone name that you created based on your name, as in www.jane.doe. You should see the text that you created in Notepad.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the web page with the URL based on your name (#3).

TASK 3: Set Up DHCP on a Network   STEP 1: Set Up a DHCP Server

Back to Top

In most networks, IP addresses are leased to client devices by a DCHP server. When a computer or other device connects to the network and is set up to use DCHP, it broadcasts a packet to search for a DHCP server. The server responds with the IP address and other configuration information. In this lab, you will set up a DHCP server. In Windows 7, you will change the configuration of the network adapter from a static IP address to one using DHCP.

Action

1. In Server Manager right-click Roles, click Add Roles, and click Next to get past the Before You Begin window.

2. Select DHCP Server. Notice that the left panel files with the steps you have to go through to set up DHCP. Click Next.

3. You will see an overview. Click Next to display the Specify OPv4 DNS Server Settings window.

4. It displays the IP address on the network that we want to use for DHCP. Click Next.

5. It fills in the fact that it is associated with an Active Directory domain and it has a DNS server at this address. Click Next.

6. WINS is a protocol from the 1990s, when some computer programs only referenced computer names instead of IP addresses. We definitely don’t need it. Click Next.

7. Now you are at the Add or Edit DHCP Scopes window. Click Add and fill in the boxes as follows.

1. Scope name: LAN

2. Starting IP address: 192.168.1.101

3. Ending IP address: 192.168.1.200

4. Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

5. Default gateway: (leave blank)

6. Subnet type: Wired

7. Basically, it tells the server to assign addresses in the range of 192.168.1.101 to 192.168.1.200. (For this exercise you really don’t need 10 addresses, but it is more realistic.)

8. The scope name could be anything.

9. Click OK, then Next.

8. We don’t care about DCHPv6, so click Disable DHCPv6 stateless mode for this server.

9. Click Next.

10. We need to authorize the DHCP server. Leave the defaults and click Next.

11. Click Install, and after a while you will get the Installation Results message. You will also probably get a warning that automatic updates are not enabled. That is okay.

   STEP 2: Configure DHCP on Windows 7

Back to Top

Action

1. Log on to Windows 7 as experimental\administrator.

2. In the Control Panel, click the View network status and tasks link under Network and Internet.

3. In the left panel click Change adapter settings.

4. Right-click Local Area Connection experimental.lab and click Properties.

5. Highlight Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click the Properties button.

6. Select Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically. Click OK and close the windows.

7. Click the Start icon, and in the text box type cmd and press Enter. At the command prompt type “ipconfig /all,” press Enter, and expand the window to see all the information. You can see the IP address of the DHCP server along with the lease information.

iLAB STEPS

TASK 1: Explore Folder Permissions   STEP 1: Explore Folder Permissions

Back to Top

Action

1. Log on to server with a password of Password!. (Remember the exclamation point.)

2. Click Start, then click Computer to open the Windows Explorer window. Create a folder called Test inside the Users folder on drive C, and then create a folder called Utilities inside Test.

3. Right-click Utilities, click Properties, and then click the Security tab. Notice the grayed check marks. These are inherited permissions.

4. Click Edit. Now you have the ability to change the permissions. You cannot change the ones that are currently checked and deactivated because they are inherited. Remember that Deny permissions override Allow permissions.

5. Click the Add button and then the Advanced button. Click the Find Now button and scroll down to Server Operators and highlight it. Click OK twice to get back to the Properties window. Click the Allow box for Modify.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the permissions for Server Operator (#1).

1. Click OK.

2. Now we want to get rid of the inherited permissions. From the Security tab of the Properties window, click the Advanced button.

3. Click the Edit button, and then remove the check mark from the box for “Include inheritable permissions from this object’s parent.” If you wanted to modify some of the inherited permissions, you would just click Copy. We want all of them removed, so click the Remove button.

4. Click OK twice until you are back at the Utilities Properties window.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the Properties window (#2).

1. Click OK.

TASK 2: Share Files   STEP 1: Prepare for Sharing Files

Back to Top

Action

1. Create a user based on your name. If you forget how, check out last week’s lab or the text.

2. There is already a student user with the user name of student and the password of Password!.

3. Create two domain local groups, one called Networking and the other called Accounting. Again, if you forget how, look to last week’s lab or the text for help.

4. Make yourself a member of Networking and a student a member of Accounting.

5. Create a folder called Reports in C:.

   STEP 2: Enable Sharing

Back to Top

Action

1. Click Start and then click Network. Along the top, click Networking and Sharing Center.

2. Click the down arrow to the right of Network Discovery. Click the Option button next to Turn on network discovery.

3. Click Apply.

4. Click the down arrow to the right of Public folder sharing. Click the Option button next to Turn on sharing so anyone with network access can open files.

5. Click Apply.

6. Make sure file sharing is turned on. If it isn’t, turn it on.

7. Close the Network and Sharing and the Network windows.

   STEP 3: Share a Folder Accessed From Windows 7

Back to Top

Action

1. When you click on the Reports folder, two buttons appear in the top panel. Click the Share icon on the top bar. (You could also have right-clicked the Reports folder and clicked Share.)

2. Using the down arrow next to the Add button, select Find. Find the Accounting group and click OK.

3. Notice that the Accounting group just has the Reader permission. Click the down arrow next to Reader and select Contributor. This will allow changes.

4. Click the Share button.

5. A window appears showing it has been shared as \\SRV-1\Reports. The standard format is \\ + the server name + the share name. (A bit of trivia: This is exactly the same syntax as when Microsoft first started networking in the mid-1980s.)

6. Click Done. Notice that the icon for the Reports folder has changed a bit. If you look really close, you will see the group symbol of two heads. Some people prefer the symbol in the previous versions, which was a hand underneath the folder.

7. Double-click the Reports folder to open it. In the right pane, right-click and select New then Text Document. Name the document November.

8. Minimize the server window.

   STEP 4: Allow Users to Log On From Windows 7

Back to Top

Because ElementK is a remote enviornment, we first have to allow the user to log on remotely. Before you go through the following, restart the Windows 7 PC by clicking the Send Ctrl-Alt-Delete button, clicking the red arrow in the lower right, and clicking Restart. Click OK at the error message, then close the window. After a minute or so, click the PC icon again.

Action

1. Log on to the PC as experimental\administrator with the password of Password! If you see the Set Network Location window, click Work then Close.

2. Click Start, right-click Computer, and click Properties. The System window opens.

3. In the left panel, click Remote settings.

4. Under Remote Desktop, click the Select Users button.

5. In the Remote Desktop Users dialog box, click the Add button.

6. In the Select User or Groups dialog box, click the Advanced button.

7. Click the Find Now button.

8. Highlight your name and click OK.

9. You should see your name in the text box. Click OK.

10. In the remote Desktop Users dialog box, you should see your user name. Click OK.

11. Log off.

12. Click Send Ctrl-Alt-Delete. Click Switch User then Other User. For the user name, type “experimental\” followed by your user name. Fill in the password you gave yourself.

   STEP 5: Accessing Shares From Windows 7

Back to Top

Now you are logged on with the user based on your name.

Action

1. Click the Start icon, then right-click Computer and click Map Network Drive.

2. In the text box, type \\srv-1\reports. Notice that the mapped drive will appear as drive Z:. There is a dropbox that would allow you to change the drive letter.

3. Click Finish.

4. Notice the error that you got. That is because the user based on your name was put in the Networking group and doesn’t have any share permissions.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the error (#3).

1. Log back on to the server and change the share permissions so the Networking group has Reader permissions.

2. On the Windows 7 PC, log on as the user with your name, click the Folder icon on the task bar, expand the Computer in the left pane, and click drive Z:. The November text file that you created on the server is displayed in the right panel.

3. Double-click on the November file. Type your name in the file. Now save the file. Notice the error. You tried to change the contents of the file but you only had Reader permissions.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing your name and the error (#4).

1. Log off of the PC.

2. Log on as the student user (experimental\student) with a password of Password! that you put in the Accounting group.

3. Map the drive to the Reports folder as R:.

4. Open the November file and put your name in it. Save the file. The size should be 1 KB.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing that the drive is R: and the size is 1 KB (#5).

TASK 3: Use Distributed File System   STEP 1: Add the Distributed File System Role

Back to Top

There is a major problem with the standard way of sharing files. For example, what if you need to move the share to another server? All the mapped drives would have to be changed. With DFS, shares just refer to the domain name. The administrator can put the folders anywhere in the domain.

Action

1. On the server, open Server Manager, expand Roles, and click File Services. In the right panel, scroll down until you see Add Role Services. Click it.

2. Select the check box next to Distributed File System. Notice that the other two boxes are selected too. Click Next.

3. For a namespace, type Management. This represents a group of common shares in the domain. Click Next.

4. We want the default domain-based namespace to give us the capability of easy administration. Click Next.

5. Click the Add button, click the Browse button, click the Show Shared Folders button, then click Reports. Click OK until you are back to the Configure Namespace window.

6. Click Next.

7. Click Install and be patient.

8. Click Close when done.

9. Log on to Windows 7 using the student user called experimental\student. Map a drive to \\experimental.lab\Management\Reports.

10. Click Finish. Notice that the location is now based on the domain name.

Insert a screenshot into your lab report showing the November text file with the letter Z in the text box at the top of the window (#6).
