Hello,

Well more like a job interview but it will be intersting to see how people on
here answered the questions.

1) In Windows XP, which registry key(s) would you check to stop an application
starting each time you logon?

2)On an NTFS file system, what is the difference between moving a file between
folders on the same partition, and between folders on different partitions, and
why is it important to understand the difference?

3)When setting up a private network of 5 PCs behind an Internet Router, what IP
address ranges have been reserved for such use. Which would you pick, and
why?

4)If you want to Remote Desktop to your PC which is behind an ADSL router, what
would you need to configure on the ADSL router for this to be possible?

5)You decide to use a Linux Server as a NAT firewall protecting 3 PCs on a
192.168.1.0/24 subnet (PC1 = 192.168.1.10, PC2 = 192.168.1.11, PC3 =
192.168.1.12). All PCs need to send mail by SMTP direct to your ISP's mail
server. You need to RDP to PC3 from the Internet. No other access should be
allowed from outside, typical access should be allowed from inside. Describe
your interpretation of 'typical access' and list what command(s) would you use
on the Linux server to configure the firewall?

6)What do you think of Vista?

7)An XP PC is installed with 2 graphics cards from different manufacturers
powering 2 displays. Following an upgrade to Vista, what problems will you
encounter relating to the 2 graphics cards and what are your options if you
want to keep the 2 displays?


8)Money no object, what components would you select to build the ultimate
gaming PC?


9)What percentage of your computer knowledge has been a) self-taught (e.g.
reading books, browsing Internet, trial and error), b) taught (e.g. uni or
course), c) work experience (e.g. picked up on-the-job, but not through formal
training)?


10)What are your top 5 favourite I.T. books?
