You're the network administrator of a small nonprofit organization. Currently, an employee named Craig Jenkins handles all the help desk calls for the organization.

In recent months, the volume of the help desk calls has exceeded what Craig can manage alone, so an additional help desk employee was hired to carry some of the load.

Currently, permissions to network resources are assigned directly to Craig's user object. Because the new employee needs exactly he same level of access, you decide to simply copy Craig's Active Directory domain user object and rename it with the new employee's name.

Will this strategy work? (8.8 #5)

• No. Making a copy of an existing user causes both accounts to have the same security identifier (SID)

• Yes. This strategy will be successful

• No. Permission are not copied when a user account is copied.

• No. Active Directory does not permit you to copy an existing user account.
