Good Book to pass exam

Found this book good to pass the Solaris 8 network admin certification exam. It is written in a very clear and to-the-point manner so that the reader does not waste his/her time in un-necessary detail and reading unrelated things.BTW, I have seen a review under heading "A superb illustration of mediocrity, February 11, 2002 " about this book. I beleive that the reviewer probably wanted to write this review for some other book because there is no chapter 16 in this book. Also the question mentioned in that review is not related to Network administration at all and is not contained in this book.To me this book is excellent to pass the exam if you have some experience with Solaris.

fast facts pages 386 - 416 were enough to pass the exam

if you can just read the fast facts pages and be ready for the exam than you would probably be the experienced sysadmin which SUN aims at with the scna exam. this book covers all the exam objectives well enough to prepare you for the scna exam.. still I gave it 4 stars because I find that it can use some more proof reading.. some stupid mistakes were made in the text.. I can't tell you about the quality of the review questions or thepractice exam because I didn't really trust (didn't try them)them after noticing the not so superb editing quality.

Great Book!

Great book for exam preparation, or just as a reference. Typos are extremely rare. The sample questions in the book and on the CDROM are accurate--virtually devoid of typos.The CDROM practice test actually works, unlike some others I have used. It has both study mode (you can peek at the answers) and exam mode. After the test, your score is presented graphically, and each question is marked. If I had to pick a bone with this book, it would be that the pages are only half filled up. The text takes up a center section, leaving a wide margin on the outboard sides. This causes lots of code/file samples to wrap unnecessarily with a somewhat annoying arrow icon. On the other hand, the white space makes the text easier to read. The author stresses that you must have experience to pass the test, and he suggests ways to practice specific operations to gain that experience.With a book like this on the market, there should be a glut of Solaris 8 Network Administrators on the streets soon!
