I just labbed this same scenario. In Item level targeting, click new item then select Computer name. Change NetBios to DNS and in the computer name type in the domain. in my cause it was adatum.com because i'm running a ms cert lab. Sign into a domain join computer and do a gpupdate /force. nothing happens. remove item level target and sign back in with gpupdate /force and the note pad will appear. This should be NO NO NO. test it yourself if you can.

Guys..just work on your lab. The DNS name contoso.com applies to all computers. just tested. just crate a user preference shortcup with action create and ITL DNS name contoso.com or adatum.com whetever your lab domain is. it will just create the shortcut. No need to specify the exact computer name. So answer is all YES

targeting 'contoso.com' does nothing. you need to target an actual computer name for it to achieve anything

Is the omission of a "*." before "contoso.com" intentional? If so, then, (a) I can see where NO NO NO is the right answer and (b) that's a cheap shot on Microsoft's part. If it's not intentional, then I can see where YES YES YES is correct. Given a similar sloppiness in one of the immediately preceding questions, I can totally see it going either way (in terms of whether the omission is intentional or not).

It doesn't matter if there is a "*." missing, either intentionally or not. Only if the item-level targeting refers to a computername.contoso.com the shutcut is created. See jam's comment above, we tested it.

Just tested this, too, and the behaviour is exactly as you described. So the shortcut will never be added, because the item-level targeting settings don't match any computer.

This like says YES, YES, YES. You can specify a domain name and it is applied to all computers in that domain. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-r2-and-2012/dn789189(v=ws.11)

Computer Name targeting A Computer Name targeting item allows a preference item to be applied to computers or users only if the computer's name matches the specified computer name in the targeting item. If Is Not is selected, it allows the preference item to be applied only if the computer's name does not match the specified computer name in the targeting item. Computer Name targeting Option Description NetBIOS If this option is clicked, the targeting item compares the specified name to the NetBIOS name of the computer (as specified in the %ComputerName% variable). DNS If this option is clicked, the targeting item resolves the specified name into one or more IP addresses using the Windows name resolution behavior in effect on the computer. The targeting item then compares the list of IP addresses obtained to all IP addresses bound to all network adapters on the computer. If a single match exists, the targeting item returns a value of true. Note: You must choose either NetBIOS or DNS. There is no required format for the computer name except that it must be resolvable to an IP address. Nothing is mentioned about supplying a domain and it applies to all computers within that domain. Answer should be no,no,no.

Answer is correct (YESx3) Reason: "A Group Policy object (GPO) named GPO1 is linked to the domain." The GPO is linked at the domain level. The question doesn't mention whether the computers are on the domain, however they are listed in their respective OU's. So it is safe to assume that they are on the domain. The Item level targeting shows that it will be applied to any users signing in to computers with that DNS - Computer1.Contoso.com, and Computer2.contoso.com Therefore, the GPO is applied.

I just did the exact same thing in a lab. When I put ONLY the AD domain name, (mcsa2016.local) the link didn't appear. Link only appeared when I added a computer name tot the domain name (svrdm1.mcsa2016). This tells me the answer has to be no (without question). Question I'd like to know is why these practice exams continue to have incorrect answers on questions that can be easily resolved by testing.

Given answer is correct. As explained on the given link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2008-R2-and-2008/cc730752(v=ws.11)?redirectedfrom=MSDN If this option is clicked, the targeting item resolves the specified name into one or more IP addresses using the Windows name resolution behavior in effect on the computer. The targeting item then compares the list of IP addresses obtained to all IP addresses bound to all network adapters on the computer. If a single match exists, the targeting item returns a value of true. A computer that is added to the OU get's an name of: Computername.domain (Computer1.contoso.com) The Shortcut should appear. Correct me please if i'm wrong.

Definitely all No's. The "what are they really asking" of this question is will that item level targeting work? Being that none of these computers are named "contoso.com" the gpo will not apply

Answer is 3xNo As you can read in the refernce-link "There is no required format for the computer name except that it must be resolvable to an IP address. " contoso.com is not a valid and resolvable computername but the dns suffix, there should stand *contoso.com to apply to all comupters.

It doesn't ask you if the GPO applies to the User/Computer, it simply asks if the shortcut will show up. Since it applies to all computers that are joined to the domain (item-level targeting that applies to all computers in contoso.com domain), the shortcut will show up for everyone regardless of which OU the users are in or if the GPO applies to the user, it still applies to the computers so it will always show. Answer is YES , YES , YES
