Customer Reviews

Wonderful, wonderful Reference/amazing beginner's Guide too

The attention paid in this book on IP Itself is worth praising, too many books hand you too little of everything to be of any real use. I have found this to be superior to the Oreilly book, even though that is a fine book in itself. I have read Comer's books on IP itself, and no wonder its the yard stick in IP books, that of course gets a little too detailed or abstract in terms of "what can I use now" for some. Karanjit nails the issue of IP and NT with authority and precision for a reader on a beginner to medium level. Unless you want to really get into hardcore IP, or even if you want to, this book is great as a good "getting started" Guide and also as a confidence builder for someone new at this, given that NT is showing up everywhere, the reader can try the small utilities as she goes to see what all this on paper is about in real life. Looking forward to its 2000 Edition.

I like this Book.

The first Iread it I wonder wheter there is another one like it

Written for the Senior Systems Administrator..great choice!

If you want to go deep into Windows NT and TCP/IP this is the book that will take you there. I found it goes far beyond the basics of what most books cover. As an MCSE I can tell you that if you want to be an "NT GOD" then read this book! It covers all the important aspects of using TCP/IP in a LAN/WAN environment, but also includes GREAT in depth topics such as DNS, IIS (Web and FTP), and PERL on Win32. Where else are you going to find all of these topics covered in one book? This is not some cheezy 800 page book of fluff with 3" margins and huge pictures..if you want that then keep on searching. This is a professional, well laid out, to-the-point book on Windows NT and TCP/IP. I hated New Riders' MCSE books - they were horrible. The new Landmark Series are great and for the first time I feel a publisher has finally found the recipe that O'Reilly uses and added some spice to it.

Amazing

Karinjit Siyan's approach to teaching is amazing. I have read alot of TCP/IP with NT book, but none are as good. If you truly want to learn about NT and TCP/IP, this is the book.

The book rocks

The book covers lots of topics, but doesnt tend to stray away from tcp/ip. Also , it explains all of the terms used in the book before you read the chapter. It is an excellent book. It isnt much of a resource kit, rather it is more or less a book that you could read in front of your terminal or over drinks. If you love oreilly books, you will love this book . It is a book for both the beginners and the intermediate. I give it ten stars.
