Q1Domain Verified
In Active Directory, which of the following statements best describes the purpose of a Global Catalog (GC) server in a multi-domain forest?
It stores a full replica of all objects in the entire forest, enabling fast searches across domains.
It is responsible for replicating password changes between domain controllers within a single domain.
It holds a full replica of all objects in its own domain and a partial replica of all objects in other domains within the forest.
It acts as a DNS server for all domains in the forest, resolving all internal and external queries.
Q2Domain Verified
When configuring Kerberos delegation in Active Directory, what is the primary security implication of enabling "Unconstrained Delegation" on a service account?
The service account can only impersonate users who have explicitly granted it permission to act on their behalf.
The service account can request service tickets on behalf of users for *any* service on *any* computer within the domain.
The service account can impersonate any user on any computer within the domain, but only for services it provides.
The service account can only impersonate users for services running on the same server where the service account is running.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario where a user logs into a workstation joined to a single-domain Active Directory environment. What is the typical sequence of authentication events that occur for the user to access domain resources?
The workstation contacts a Domain Controller (D
for authentication, receives a Kerberos Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) from the DC, and then the DC itself authenticates the user to the requested resource. C) The user's credentials are sent directly to a Domain Controller (DC) for validation, and upon successful validation, the DC issues a security token for resource access.
The workstation queries DNS to locate a Domain Controller (DC), then the DC performs NTLM authentication against the user's provided password hash.
The workstation contacts a Domain Controller (DC) for authentication, receives a TGT from the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC), and then requests service tickets for specific resources from resource DCs.
