Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, B

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (HCIA--Cloud Computing aligned):

In AD, OUs and user groups are both used for organizing and managing resources, but they differ in function.

A is true. Both OUs and user groups are AD objects.

B is true. An OU can contain multiple types of AD objects, including users, computers, printers, and shared resources.

C is false. Group policies cannot be directly applied to user groups; they are applied to domains, sites, or OUs.

D is false. A user group can contain users, computers, and even other groups, not only user accounts.

Thus, the correct answers are A and B.

I thought user groups could include other objects too, not just accounts.

Wait, D? That seems off, can a user group really only have accounts?

I'm a bit confused about C; I feel like group policies are mainly for OUs, but I can't recall if they apply to user groups too.

I think A is true because both OUs and user groups are indeed objects in Active Directory, but I'm not completely sure about the specifics.
