Nice book that explains the basic Nice book for people needing to know the basic and how it works and where to find things. I keep it next to my advance book. This book well not go in to deeped. but it will get you started and expaines what it for and how it works. | ||
Little Relevant Info from a programmer's perspective If you buy a server with Windows 2003 Server R2 pre-installed, there is very little you need to do in order to get it up and running as a web/apps server. As such, the book, while very clear, has joined my legions of forgottable IT books. It's not bad, it's just not filled with enough info to make it a must have. I supposed it allowed me to feel better that I wasn't alone in my configuration. | ||
Server Crash Course A good way to quickly catch up on Server management. About the only thing missing is Active Directory. Instead of just saying that its too big of a topic to cover, it would be nice to have at least a brief guideline to it. | ||
Great Introduction Manual This is a great introduction manual if you have never installed or used Windows Server 2003. I found it very easy to understand and it walked me through each step that would be of concern for a typical user. | ||
Excellent Introduction to Windows 2003 Server Don Jones deserves applause for clearly covering all the major areas of the vast Windows Server 2003 package in this easy-to-handle book. It steers the middle course between the vast "Mastering The only thing keeping it from getting a full five stars was that it went a bit too briskly over DNS, where I get the feeling a couple more pages of Jones' on-the-mark advice could have saved me some hours of troubleshooting. On the whole, however, a very useful book. | ||
