Designing and Implementing a Server Infrastructure — Question 30

A company has a line-of-business application named Appl that runs on an internal IIS server. Ap1l uses a SQL Server 2008 database that is hosted on the same server.
You move the database to a dedicated SQL Server named SQL1. Users report that they can no longer access the application by using their domain credentials.
You need to ensure that users can access Appl.
Solution: You configure App1 and SQL1 to use NTLM authentication. Then you restart the IIS and SQL Server services.
Does this meet the goal?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The solution does not meet the goal because NTLM authentication alone will not suffice if the application was originally using Windows Authentication with Kerberos. It may require additional configuration related to delegation or service accounts to allow proper access to the SQL Server from the IIS server.
