56. You can use both “Ping
Localhost” and “Ping 127.0.0.1”
(don’t put double quotes) to see
whether the TCP/IP stack is
installed properly. Ipconfig is
used to obtain the TCP/IP
configuration information, such
as the IP address, subnet mask,
default gateway etc. on the
local computer.
57. The various options
available with Ipconfig for
managing DHCP are:
1.
Ipconfig /all
Produces complete details.
Without this switch, 'ipconfig'
displays only the IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway
values for each network card.
2.
Ipconfig /renew [adapter]
Renews DHCP configuration
parameters. This option is
available only on systems
running the DHCP Client service.
3.
Ipconfig /release
[adapter]
Releases the current DHCP
configuration. This option
disables TCP/IP on the local
system and is available only on
DHCP clients.
4.
To specify an adapter
name, type the adapter name that
appears when you use 'ipconfig'
without parameters.
58. To map a network drive
letter to a share, we use the
command NET USE. The correct
command syntax is “net use
Z:\\Server01\Myfiles”.
59. Computer Management ->
Shared Folders can be used to
view some very useful
information like,
-
Shares information: Here you can
see all of the shares that have
been configured on the computer.
-
Session Information: Allows you
to see username, computer name
etc that has connected to a
share currently
-
Open Files: Allow you to see
currently opened files
60. You
can use the View tab in Folder
Options applet in the Control
Panel to show / hide files and
folders that have “Hidden”
attribute set. You can also use
Windows Explorer -> Tools ->
Folder Options -> View tab.
