Distributed file system


You have been hired out as a contractor to Dover Leasing Company. Dover Leasing is in the process of reviewing its current structure and practices. There have been instances of minor security breaches in which users were able to gain access to information they shouldn't be permitted to view. Management would like you to make some recommendations on how permissions can be changed on specific folders.
Task
1. Two network servers maintain confidential information pertaining to financial data and employee data. Users access the folders both locally and on the network. Only members of the Managers group, Human Resources group, and Accounts group should have access to these folders. Explain how permissions can be implemented, including a short description of how shared folder permissions and NTFS permissions work together. 

2. Dover Leasing has recently hired a new server administrator. Prepare a brief explanation for the new administrator about how to configure NTFS permissions for the different groups on the network. 

3. The new server administrator has heard about a Distributed File System, but does not know if it is appropriate for Dover Leasing. Prepare a brief explanation for the new administrator that discusses the advantages and disadvantages of implementing a DFS for this size of company, along with a recommendation for or against, and why.
