  By Certification Magazine —

The option stating that both a user and an administrator could change the value, but the administrator’s value would be saved is incorrect. This would be true if you set the How to Apply this Setting option to Set value whenever modified.

The option stating that only an administrator could specify a value in this field, but a user could not, is incorrect. This would be true if you set the How to Apply this Setting option to Set value and prevent changes.

Which protocol is used by a local NSF replica that is hosted on the Lotus Domino server?

A.    HTTP
B.    HTTPS
C.    NRPC
D.    SMTP

Answer:
C. NRPC

Tutorial:
Notes Remote Procedure Call (NRPC) is the default protocol used for provisioning a composite application. If the site is a local update site, then NRPC uses the following format for provisioning the composite application:

NRPC:///__23343432800454A1/site.xml

If it is a remote update site, then you can use the following:

NRPC://<hostname>/<replicaID>/site.xml.

An example of a remote update site is NRPC://updates.kit.com/_23343433400454A1/site.xml. The replica ID is always prefixed with a double underscore. You may be required to create one or more update sites by using NRPC, HTTP or HTTPS protocol depending on your requirements. You can configure multiple updates for composite applications to be referenced from multiple update sites or from a single update site. A composite application may use more than one Eclipse feature that you may have to deploy from one update site or multiple update sites.

The HTTP, HTTPS and SMTP options are incorrect. HTTP and HTTPS are optional protocols for provisioning a composite application. HTTP and HTTPS can provision a composite application in the following manner: http://updates.kit.com/updatesite.nsf/site.xml or https://updates.kit.com/updatesite.nsf/site.xml. SMTP is not used for provisioning a composite application.

Objective: Security.
Sub-objective: Implement Internet password locking.

Single answer, multiple choice

In which document should you configure the Internet Password Lockout feature across multiple servers in the Lotus Domino environment?

A.    The Server document.
B.    The Server Configuration document.
C.    The Web site document.
D.    The Person document.

Answer:
B. The Server Configuration document.

Tutorial:
The Server Configuration document contains options to configure the Internet Password Lockout feature. You cannot force the Internet Password Lockout feature in the Server Configuration document without using a security policy. You must first configure the Enforce Internet Password Lockout setting to Yes in the Server Configuration document to be able to successfully deploy a security policy to lock Internet passwords.

The Server document option is incorrect. The Server document is specific to a Lotus Domino server and contains configuration that relates to that specific Lotus Domino server.

The Web site document option is incorrect. You can use a Web Site document to configure WebDAV in the Lotus Domino environment. You cannot use it to configure the Internet Password Lockout feature across multiple servers in the Lotus Domino environment.

The Person document option is incorrect. A Person document is used to configure a specific user account in the Lotus Domino environment, and it contains user-specific information such as Internet username and password. It cannot be used to configure the Internet Password Lockout feature across multiple servers in the Lotus Domino environment.
