Instructor Lab Guide Folder: winntxx.sif Should Be winnt.sif

In the Instructor Lab Guide folder, there is a folder structure as follows:
Instructor Lab Guide\Setup\Computerxx (The xx stands for each individual machine that would need to be built, i.e. Computer01, Computer02, Computer03).

Inside of each folder there are two files that are used to build a lab computer: DCxx.txt and winntxx.sif. The winntxx.sif file is named incorrectly. This file will not run unless it is simply named winnt.sif.

For example, in the Computer01 folder, there is a winnt01.sif and a DC01.txt.

Change:
"winntxx.sif"

To:
"winnt.sif"

Virtual PC, Lab Manual, Page 16: "Verifying the DHCP Relay Agent" Workaround

On page 16, under "Verifying the DHCP Replay Agent", at step 5, instead of successfully receiving an IP address lease, you receive the following error message:

"DHCP Server cannot be reached. Request has timed out."

The cause of this problem is currently unknown. The objective of the "Verifying the DHCP Relay Agent" section is to demonstrate communication through a relay agent. Although the desired result isn't a successful address lease, relay agent communication can be demonstrated by viewing the DHCP log and noticing that a NACK was sent through the relay to Computer02. Lab 1 configuration changes are not saved, so this problem does not impact other labs.

Note This issue applies to the Lab Manual exercise in the Virtual PC environment.

Lab Manual, Page 77: Correction To Exercise 5-1

24. Click OK to close the Advanced Security Settings for computerxx.
25 Click OK to close the computerxx Properties page.
26. Double-click the folder you just created on the desktop.
27. Close the computerxx folder.
28. Maximize Event Viewer, and then press F5. In the details pane, notice that events of the category Object Access were written to the security log.
29. Double click on the Object Access Events and verify that there is an event related to accessing the computerxx folder in step 26.
30. Close Event Viewer."

Lab Manual, Page 115: SUS no longer available

In the Lab Manual, on page 115, under "Exercise 7-1: Installing, configuring, and managing a SUS server", it states that you need to download SUS from Microsoft website.

However, Software Update Services (SUS) has been replaced by Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). As of August 24, 2005, you can no longer download SUS from the Microsoft Web site.

Please skip the SUS exercise and other SUS related content, and refer to the following website to learn about Windows Server Update Services (WSUS):

Page 11: Figure 1-7 on IP addressising is incorrect

On page 11, in Figure 1-7, the alternate IP configuration should be positioned before assigning an IP address using APIPA.

Page 80: The suggested password does not meet the Domain Security Policy

On page 80, step 7 of the Assigning the Logon Locally Right process reads:

"In the Password and Confirm Password fields, type studentlogon, clear the User Must Change Password At Next Logon option, click the User Cannot Change Password option, and then click Next."

It should read:

"In the Password and Confirm Password fields, type MSPress#1, clear the User Must Change Password At Next Logon option, click the User Cannot Change Password option, and then click Next."

Page 89: Zone incorrectly labeled in Figure 3-12

On page 89, in Figure 3-12, the first zone is labelled:

"sales.contoso.com"

It should be labeled:

"contoso.com"

The second zone is labelled:

"contoso.com"

It should be labelled:

"sales.contoso.com"

Page 89: microsoft.com zone referenced in place of contoso.com

On page 89, the last sentence of the paragraph following figure 3-12 reads:

"To make this server known to others outside of the newly delegated zone, two resource records are needed in the microsoft.com zone to complete delegation to the new zone:"

It should read:

"To make this server known to others outside of the newly delegated zone, two resource records are needed in the contoso.com zone to complete delegation to the new zone:"

Page 220: SUS no longer available

On page 220, in step 1, it states:

"1. Download SUS at http://www.microsoft.com/windows200/windowsupdate/sus/default.asp"

However, Software Update Services (SUS) has been replaced by Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). As of August 24, 2005, you can no longer download SUS from the Microsoft Web site.

As such, this renders the SUS exercise and other related content in Chapter 7 obsolete.

Please skip the SUS exercise and other SUS related content, and refer to the following website to learn about Windows Server Update Services (WSUS):
