You are the systems administrator for your company. You install a Windows Essential Business Server 2008 server named EBS1 on the network. EBS1 contains a shared folder named Public that contains user files. You want to ensure that each user maps to the \EBSlPublic folder at each logon, regardless of future changes.
What should you do?
A.
Run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic command on each computer.
B.
Run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic /home command on each computer.
C.
Run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic /persistent:yes command on each computer.
D.
Run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic%USERNAME% /persistent:yes command on each computer.
Explanation:
You should run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic /persistent:yes command on each computer. The Net use command is used to connect a computer to or disconnect a computer from a shared resource. This command also controls persistent network connections with the /persistent parameter. Specifying the /persistent:yes parameter saves all connections as they are made and restores them at next logon. Running the Net use /persistent:yes command ensures that all existing connections are restored at the next logon.An alternative solution would be to use the Map Network Drive dialog box and select the Reconnect at logon check box to specify which connections should be restored at each logon. To open the Map Network Drive dialog box, you should double-click the My Computer icon on the desktop, click the Tools menu, and select the Map Network Drive option. Alternatively, you can right-click the My Computer icon on the desktop and select the Map Network Drive option.
You should not run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic command on each computer because this command will not restore the connection to the \EBSlPublic folder at the next logon. You can include this command in a logon script to ensure that the connection to the \EBSlPublic folder is restored at each logon.
You should not run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic /home command on each computer. The /home parameter is used to connect a user to the home directory.
You should not run the Net use Z: \EBSlPublic%USERNAME% /persistent:yes command on each computer. The %USERNAME% parameter indicates that the user running this command has a user folder in the \EBSlPublic folder, which is not specified in this scenario. Therefore, specifying \EBSlPublic%USERNAME% in the command will result in an error.
