This is the only book I used to pass my exam (70-219) and I passed with flying colors. Book covers everything you need to know for Microsoft's MCSE program on the Directory Services Design. Put together well, three exams and I had a lot of these questions on mine. A must for the serious minded person who wants to pass and become MSCE.
Good content, awkward writing
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I am pleased with this book. In spite of some problems with writing style, I recommend this book. The information covered is exactly what I need to transition from Windows NT 4 to Windows 2000. My only criticism of this book could be applied to much of the technical computer instructional material I've read. The author, while astute technically, is not a competent writer. This is not a minor nitpick because at times it is been necessary to re-read sections because of the author's inability to clearly organize and communicate his ideas.
Good, but Missing the NT4 to Win2K upgrade info
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I'm giving this book 4 out of 5 stars for the obvious omission of the NT4 to Win2K upgrade information that is an essential part of passing the 70-219 exam, Active Directory Design. I previously passed the 70-217 exam, Active Directory Infrastructure, so I had the base knowledge required to pass this exam. I found that this book gave a good overview of the required material, and tested you with end of chapter quizzes, as well as a 6 case study test at the end of the book. If you buy this book, please refer to an alternate source for the NT4 to Win2K info, such as the "Domain Migration Cookbook" at the MS site, or look for the Exam Prep version of this book, as it does cover this absent material and is also worth a look. Cheers, and Good Luck!
