| 116. | Roy is the network administrator for Que, which operates a single AD DS domain named que.com. Servers run a mix of Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, and client computers run a mix of Windows XP Professional and Windows 7 Enterprise. Que’s main office is located in Buffalo and there is a branch office in Rochester. Roy creates a GPO that redirects the Start menu for users in the Rochester office to a shared folder on a file server.
Users in Rochester report that many of the programs they normally use are missing from their Start menus, even though the programs were available on the Start menu the previous day. Logging on to one of the client computers, Roy notices that all the programs in question are present on the Start menu. Roy verifies that users can access the shared folder on the server. He needs to find out why the Start menu changed for the affected users. How can he accomplish this task? (Each correct answer represents a complete solution to the problem. Choose two answers.)

When this attempt succeeds, Ian wonders why the new PSO was not applied to his account. Which of the following is the reason Ian was able to specify an eight-character password?
