Most Helpful Customer Reviews   6 of 6 people found the following review helpful: 1.0 out of 5 stars A waste of time and money., 10 Nov 2008 By  Richard James "rich-amazon" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    One of the big selling points advertised on the book is the free E-Book download, and a pre-configured virtual on VMWare. When connecting to their site, you have to sign up, and then there was no link. Contacting the company, they forwarded a link, but that was to a proprietary DRM E-book client that you had to install on Windows. Nagios is hosted on Linux! Customer service was terrible. On the book contents: More than half the pages are filled with code (note, not fragments; verbatim prints of the default configuration files no less, and pages and pages of code that is supposed to be downloadable from the site anyway, but not that I could find anywhere, despite registering). This renders it almost useless for a reference, as you have to wade through the swathes of code to reach any of the descriptive information (which is sparse, and not well explained). It's advertised deep coverage of plugins is, you guessed it, light commentary (2 paragraphs) coupled with a full printout of the plugin (4 pages), and ratios like that. On the whole, the advertised support for this book is non-existant, and the printed content definitely not worth the money. I'd avoid this one like the plague, as it is a serious disappointment on the content and the presentation, along with the support. Dismal.
