Answers C and D are correct. Answer C is correct because all flavors of Windows 2000 Server are supported provided that they are at SP4. Answer D is correct because all flavors of Windows Server 2003 are supported. Answer A is incorrect because MPS 3.0 does not support Windows NT 4.0 TSE. Answer B is incorrect because Windows 2000 should be at Service Pack 4 or later; because it is at SP2, it is not supported.
Answer B is correct. Answers A, C, and D are incorrect because Microsoft's minimum RAM requirement for Windows Server 2003 is 256MB RAM.
Answer D is correct. When an MPS server connects to a Microsoft SQL MSDE or Microsoft Access IMA Data Store database, it is connecting to this database via another MPS server that is hosting the database; therefore, this is known as Indirect mode because it indirectly access the database. Answer A is incorrect because no such mode exists. Answer B is incorrect because a Direct mode is not supported with Microsoft SQL MSDE; it is supported with Microsoft SQL, Oracle, or IBM DB/2. Answer C is incorrect because no such mode exists.
Answer C is correct. The recommended size of RAM when installing Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Datacenter server is 1GB. Answers A, B, and D are incorrect because they are not the minimum recommended size.
Answer B is correct. The minimum recommended free disk space required for a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition install is 1.5GB. Answers A, C, and D are incorrect because they are not the minimum recommended free disk space size on a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.
Answer B is correct. TS Licensing Server does not have to be installed on a domain controller in either Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003. It is recommended for more reliable querying but is not mandatory and can run on other servers.
Answers F and G are correct. You do not need a specific Citrix load balancing license. Depending on the edition of MPS you purchase, you will either get this feature or not. The Standard Edition of MPS 3.0 does not include load balancing, but the Advanced and Enterprise Editions do. Citrix load balancing was licensed separately in the MF 1.8 days. There is no such thing as the Citrix ICA Client Device License. Answers A through E are incorrect because they are all requirements.
Answer D is correct. TCP port 1494 is used to establish and maintain an ICA session. Answers A and B are incorrect because 2512 and 2513 are used for MPS server-to-server communication and server-to-IMA communications. Answer C is incorrect because 1604 is a UDP port used for client broadcast.
Answer D is correct. Load balancing is not fault tolerance. In the event of a server failure for any reason, users connected to that server lose their connection, thereby needing to reconnect, and any unsaved data is lost. Answers A, B, and C are incorrect because they are incorrect statements.
Answer A is correct. An MPS 3.0 server has 120 days to locate and communicate with a TS Licensing server; otherwise, it will start refusing connections. Answers B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not provide the correct grace period value.
