Answer Set #11

Problem Set questions appear in black, and Answers appear in this magenta color.

1. On an NT workstation, what transport protocol should be used to communicate with files and printers on a NetWare Server?

1. NetBEUI
2. NWLink
3. TCP/IP
4. DLC

• NWLink

2. What else must be installed in order for a Windows NT Workstation to directly access files and printers on a NetWare Server?

1. DLC
2. DHCP
3. CSNW
4. GSNW

• CSNW (Client Services for NetWare)

3. Client Services for NetWare in NT 3.51 supports which of the following versions of NetWare?

1. NetWare 2.x
2. NetWare 3.x
3. NetWare 4.x with bindery emulation
4. NetWare 4.x with NetWare Directory Services (NDS)

• All of the above, except #4. NDS is not supported by CSNW.

4. Barbara Gordon's Windows NT computer in her city library office is currently installed with the NetBEUI transport protocol. She wants to connect to a NetWare 3.11 server, which is also in the city library, to access files and printers on the NetWare server. She knows she needs to install CSNW in order to access the NetWare files and printers, so she first starts to install CSNW but then realizes she might be making a mistake because she forgot to install NWLink before CSNW. Why is her concern not valid?

• NWLink will automatically be installed when she installs CSNW. Client Services for NetWare must use NWLink, so if NWLink is not already installed, then CSNW will also install NWLink on the Windows NT computer.

5. Which IP addresses below are not valid for a computer to use on any given network??

1. 131.107.2.275
2. 38.2.100.10
3. 127.0.0.1
4. 2.2.1.1.1

• 131.107.2.275 is not valid -- 275 is out of the range for the last octet in the 32-bit number.
• 127.0.0.1 is not valid -- it is reserved for special use as a loopback address to test the IP configuration of the local computer.
• 2.2.1.1.1 is not valid -- this doesn't fit into the framework of the 32-bit IP address scheme.

6. If a Windows NT Workstation is a DHCP client, what information does the user have to supply it from the list below?

1. An IP address
2. A Subnet mask

2. PING
3. WINS
4. CHKDSK

• PING

8. What command can a user type at the command prompt to check the Windows NT TCP/IP configurational parameters?
