Rosa is the administrator of a small network. She installed Microsoft Internet Information
Server (IIS) 4.0 and 5.0 on Windows NT server 4.0 and Windows 2000 Server systems
using the suggested default settings. Rosa placed a document called index.html in the
default directory of both servers. She then tried to access both web servers using her
browser, but the servers both send error messages. Which is the most likely reason that
Rosa received an error message from these servers?
A.
Files cannot be accessed from the wwwroot directory; they are using virtual
directories.
B.
Rosa needs to create a virtual directory on each server pointing to wwwroot.
C.
Rosa needs to change the default setting on each server to a new directory in order to
access the file.
D.
Rosa’s web servers are set to access default.html, not index.html, as the default
document name
Explanation:
On IIS there is a page for default documents. These are the documents
that will be searched for when a HTML document is not specified on the URL.
Index.html is not one of the defaults. But. It can be added by modifying the
properties page for that default web site.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Files can be accessed from wwwroot, and it is NOT a virtual directory.
B: wwwroot is not a virtual directory, and does not need to be defined as one.
C: The default settings of the default web server should be wwwroot, and should notrequire any
changes.
