This is the book to have for supporting Windows 2000

Excellent! This is the book to have for supporting Windows 2000 I bought Karanjit's NT 4.0 server book and loved it, I have to say that this book is even better. If you can only afford one book on Windows 2000 server, this is the one to have! Jose Medeiros, Instructor - San Jose City College, MCP+I, MCSE, MCT, Vice President- NT Engineering Association,...

Very Thorough!

Believe it or not, I actually sat down and read most of this 1,800 page book. I was trying to get a feel for Windows 2000 Server, and I thought the bigger the book the better. It was a great place to start! The chapters are written so that the concepts are easily undersandable, and words and terms are defined in case you aren't familiar with them. There are lots of diagrams and screen shots to assist you in understanding how Active Directory works and is designed. The installation section is very thorough, and there are chapters to help you set up and use DNS, DHCP, TCP/IP, Active Directory, and understand trusts. It seems like a one-stop shop for anyone who needs a thorough introduction to the Windows 2000 Server operating system. It's sort of a how-to in a sense, and even details the differences in installing clean or performing an upgrade. I found the sections on security to be extrememly helpful, since there are so many new security features and protocols available since the release of NT 4.0. I'd suggest this book as a great first read for new network administrators on a 2000 network, and also as a handy desk reference for everything listed above and then some. The book also covers creating users and groups, monitoring the network, IIS, and IPSec.

Excellent book!

This is one of the best books of its types in this area. Very comprehensive. A must buy! Lots of topics covered, on administration and setup.

Well worth it

This book is the best i've seen so far for windows 2000 server training. It explains everything in a very detail way and it is good to those who would like to learn hown to use the 2000 server.
