Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Windows NT Server is Microsoft's most powerful piece of software, and mastery of it is critical to becoming a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE). Not only do you need to know Windows NT Server for the NT Server exam (70-67), but you also need to know it for the other MCSE exams.

The authors quote one of Microsoft's stated test objectives verbatim, enabling you to hold in mind what you need to learn for the exam, and then explain the details in several pages of text and illustrations. The authors begin with planning considerations--choosing protocols, setting up groups, and the like. Next, they discuss how to install, configure, and optimize NT Server, which is a big part of the exam. The other big general component of the exam--management and administration--comes up next and is given the attention it deserves.

This guide would be better if it contained more information on integrating NT Server into a network based on Novell NetWare--a subject that's both on the exam and essential to many real-world applications of NT Server. Still, the book makes up for this omission with its inclusion of information on Remote Access Services (RAS), the Telephony API, performance monitoring, and troubleshooting. A companion CD-ROM includes an NT Server quiz program that randomizes questions and tracks your score. The randomization feature isn't perfect, though--you can get the same question twice in a single test, sometimes more than once.

2.0 out of 5 stars I am disappointed, January 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: MCSE Training Guide: Windows NT Server 4 (Covers Exam #70-067) (Hardcover)

I bought this book for my 70-67 exam which I was palnning to take on 01/12. After I finished the first 2 chapters I was so frustrated and thought that I would never pass or understand the NT server... It is a kind of a book that makes you read more hoping that you'll understand what you already read later on, until suddenly the chapter is over. To be fair, I think there is nothing wrong with the material, maybe its just the presentation that made me dislike this book.

This book is a little bit outdated but aided me a lot to be able to take the MCSE exam with confidence, it never hurts to have a little more knowledge than the usual!

5.0 out of 5 stars A fine book when mixed with the Trancenders, April 21, 1998

This review is from: MCSE Training Guide: Windows NT Server 4 (Covers Exam #70-067) (Hardcover)

I recently wrote a review about this book for amazon that claimed that the book covered only a tenth of what was on the test. I thought that because the trancender test that I had used to test my knowledge was actually a Windoes NT Server Enterprise trancender test. I always had a suspicion of that but nowhere on the transcender did it say it was the enterprise level test. Please disregard the other review of this book with the same e-mail address (which is [e-mail]) The book is actually perfect for the test and would highly recommend it to anyone. It was so refreshing to actually see the real trancenders for Windows NT Server 4.0. The questions seemed so easy compared to the Enterprise test.
