3.0 out of 5 stars Some parts are good; some terrible, 21 Jul 1999
By A Customer
I am a Systems Engineer trying to understand things like how to analyze traffic coming into a server and using this analysis to drive some design issues, such as deciding on the hardware and software components (what to buy, architecture issues, security, issues of scaling etc.) Parts of this book discuss those issues (Ch. 3, 4 and 6, if Databases are involved).

However, since this is a book written by committee, some parts are good while others are plain bad. In particular Chapters 5 and 6 (written by John Sudds) are plainly unreadable and not worth wasting your time over. The first four Chapters and the Chapter on Security are worth reading.

The book is informational. If you want a desktop reference as you develope web pages etc., find some other book.

I haven't used the Toolkit as yet. We are in the process of creating a test setup and hopefully the toolkit will come handy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worthwhile if you filter out Microsoft's self praise, 24 Aug 1998
By A Customer
If you are an aspiring MCP this is a very good addition to your bookshelf of study material. The book is full of information not adequately covered in the official curriculum and sure to be on the certification test.

This is not a replacement for a real study guide nor is it a complete "How To" manual, but don't mistake it for casual reading either. The two CD's included are worth the price of the book, especially if you are an administrator (or an aspiring administrator).

The single biggest drawback is Microsoft't use of its own corporate solutions. We all know how big Microsoft is, so give us a break: spotlight someone else using IIS!

1.0 out of 5 stars It's like watching Independence Day without the SFX, 27 Jul 1998
By A Customer
It just scratches the surface of the vast features of IIS4. Doesn't go into detail, doesn't have how-to guides, doesn't serve its purpose.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!
This book fills a void in IIS documentation and the CDs are packed full of useful tools for an IIS4-based web server. A book that is well worth the money!

4.0 out of 5 stars The best resource available for IIS4
Microsoft is the authority for IIS4. This resouce is the best for management and setup of IIS4. The rseource kit is packed with tools and utilities for IIS4. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Overview
This is the documentation that IIS has been lacking. Most significant issues facing web managers are consolidated in one book. Highly recommended.
Published on 3 April 1998

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, little known info
IIS 4.0 is a beast with way too many changes from the previous version. The original documentation barely touches the surface. Read more
