Customer Reviews
I've been designing infrastructure solutions based on Windows technology for many years and wanted to bring my knowledge up to date with WS2008. This book has a wealth of information from installing and configuring the OS to designing Active Directory and using Group Policy to manage the environment, analysing performance and event logs to advanced name resolution describing secondary and stub zones etc.
It also (thankfully) provides this information in an easily readable format, something that some books on such a topic have been a struggle to read.
Having said that, it did teach me a couple of things... but again these weren't really Server 2008 specific, which is what I bought the book for.
For anyone who is new to administering Windows servers and your first server is a 2008 machine, this book is ideal. For anyone who is very familiar with things in server 2003 though, I dont think it is worth getting in all honesty. You would be better off getting a few different books that cover specific things you are interested in, such as Hyper V or Group Policy etc (as group policy has been improved a lot in server 2008).
Listmania!
