You work as a System Administrator for company Inc. The company has a Windows Server 2008
Active Directory-based single domain single forest network. The functional level of the forest is
Windows Server 2008. You are planning to create a group that can be used only for non-security
functions, such as distributing e-mail messages. Which of the following groups will you create?

A.
Application group

B.
User group

C.
Distribution group

D.
Security group

Explanation:
You should create a distribution group. A distribution group is used for non-security related
functions. Administrators use a distribution group when the only function of the group is nonsecurity related, such as sending e-mail messages to a group of users at the same time. Distribution
groups cannot be used to assign permissions.

D is incorrect. A security group is used to define permissions on resources and objects. It
can be listed in discretionary access control lists (DACLs). Security groups can also be used for nonsecurity purposes. A security group has all capabilities of a distribution group.

B and A are incorrect. There are no such group types as user and application in Windows
Server 2008.
