Overview

Using Windows NT Server 4 is one of the first books to be published in the Using series new and exciting format. The Using series provides painless productivity in a highly referencable, easy to use design. Special design elements, like SideNotes, allow the user to quickly and easily learn key topics, and the exhaustive, aliased index provides help even if the reader doesn t know what it is they re looking for. The book s tight focus on core system administration tasks is it s overarching strength. Its referential format walks readers through complex administration tasks, and is supplemented by Drew Heywood s expert advice, tips and workarounds. Drew s ability to clearly and simply explain complex topic areas makes him the best choice for Using Windows NT Server 4. This book takes new system administrators through the fundamentals of NT network administration, from planning, installation and configuration through more advanced concepts like security, TCP/IP management and server optimization. Everyday, business-critical tasks are the book s primary focus, so majority of its content illustrates how to accomplish things an administrator needs to do everyday like setting up new users, groups and domains, to managing network resources and taking care of backups and remote users. Whereas other books spend pages on non-critical, supplemental topics, this book gives the administrator what she really needs a practical, concise reference book covering real-world administration topics.

Eschews theory (or "looking under the hood") in favor of the practicalities of "driving." Presents the basics of installing, configuring, building a domain, and other skills, as well as the specifics of file sharing, client activation, and backing-up. For a more advanced category of readers, thoroughly covers TCI/IP, and then addresses a grab-bag of advanced topics. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
