Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

More of a volume of condensed wisdom than a traditional reference book, Windows 2000 Essential Reference serves its readers well in a couple of ways. You can use it to glean specific information about particular aspects of Windows 2000 in all its forms, as when you refer to the authors' step-by-step instructions on how to configure a server for remote configuration via a terminal. Alternatively, you can read it straight through in order to extract somewhat softer wisdom, such as what software system administrators should carry in their briefcase and how to design Active Directory systems for maximum reliability and minimum network traffic.

A thankfully small reference of command-line utilities disappoints, as it lacks syntax templates and documentation of switches. But the rest of this book more than compensates for the shaky command reference, and it's possible to use the index as a surrogate for the alphabetical listings one would expect to find in a reference. On pretty much every Windows 2000 subject (the authors pay attention to all four variants of the operating system, by the way), you'll find some explanatory prose and some procedures for common situations. Best of all, there's a bunch of bulleted points in which the authors share nuggets of knowledge that don't fit well anywhere else. These succinct facts make this a worthwhile buy for Windows 2000 systems administrators, particularly new ones in need of guidance from more experienced users. --David Wall, amazon.com

Topics covered: Microsoft Windows 2000 for system and network administrators. Sections deal with planning and installation, hardware configuration, network setup and modification, Microsoft Management Console (MMC) and other administration tools, accounts, and network services. There's emphasis on Active Directory and its way of working with the Domain Name System (DNS), as well as information on Windows 2000's TCP/IP implementation.



Product Description

Like other Essential Reference books, this will be a unique, focused, easy-to-use reference for anyone who administers, supports or manages a Windows 2000 network. It will provide a concise, technically accurate distillation of the essential information an administrator would need to know to successfully administer Windows 2000 in a real-life, enterprise production environment. Most administrators will find it hard to get their hands around the Active Directory, Kerberos authentication, IntelliMirror, group policies, and other new technologies in Windows 2000 because of their complexity. These administrators will be searching for a reliable and expert source of advice that will help them successfully implement these new technologies.
