Windows NT Workstation Configuration and Maintenance Review, December 14 1999
Submitted by Kevin Long [Respond | View]
This book is a real gem, as far as it goes, but it falls short of what it could have been. Automated scripting and registry management are great, but I would have liked to have seen much more examples of scripting. I think we've all seen the delete c:\temp example too many times and some ideas on time synching, software installs via scripting, and printer and profile management would have been welcome. Worth having, but it's so narrow in it's content it should have been a) twice as thick or b) half the price to be really worth recommending. I will of course, use everything in it, but it left me wanting more....

A superb book, I read it from cover to cover and gained a great deal from its contents. The Authors clearly know their "Onions" and more importantly are capable of imparting their knowledge so even people like me can understand A must have for all those NT/Perl administrators out there!

A great book. I loved the way the authors don't just give a list of solutions but actually explain how to work things out for yourself. This book is the solar plexus of 20th Century computing literature!
