Customer Reviews

I'm up and running thx to this book

I bought this book to learn about Active Dir. It gave me mor than just the facts - it told me what to look out for and what to do. My network is running on windows 2000 now without a hitch! The only thing that was kind of weird was chapter 12 - it was out of place - it seemed like an overview that got stuck in the back of the book.

Exceptionally helpful in the trenches

I was impressed that htis book was so great in helping me understand how Windows 2000 Active Directory worked. It is advanced - and menat for the engineer - not your average Joe technician - so it has a lot of details...even secrets. I thought it was written in a straightforward way. I understood the concepts right awaya nd could use them in my network today. We have a huge network and this book written for people who have many users not just the local network with 75 users! It is on my shelf and going to stay there!

Good book for AD

I got this book along with the System Administration Handbook. Both books are really good. This is the firt really detailed book I've seen on AD.

High-level and hands-on

I highly recommend this book to any system administratator trying to migrate over to Windows 2000. It strikes a great balance between delivering a high-level overview of essential new features and "in the trenches" hands-on advice for configuring a Windows 200 LAN. Strong both conceptually and practically. It's a winner!

Finally

I was very excited when this title published, because I've been waiting for a really good Active Directory book. This is one of the most useful things that Microsoft has put into Windows in a long time, and this book is the first book that shows you how to actually take advantage of it. Strongly recommended,
