2.0 out of 5 stars The Dummy book that was written by a Dummy!, April 8, 2000

By 

John D. Bond - See all my reviews

This review is from: MCSE Windows NT Server 4 for Dummies (Paperback)

I'll start by saying that I would recommend The msce books for dummies on networking essentials and the NT Workstation exams. I WOULD NOT recommend paying money for the MCSE NT Server 4.0 dummies book. This book is filled with errors, and inaccuracies. The short comings that I found are in the areas of troubleshooting, Managing resources, win95 admin utilities for NT, and Optimization. I would like to add that the dummies series of books are normally a very well written series that puts the facts in plain english (no techno-babble). This book fell well short of my expectations, if you don't want to spend a LOT OF MONEY taking THE Microsoft NT 4.0 SERVER exam more than once, I strongly suggest finding another study aid besides this book! I used the WINDOWS NT 4.0 MCSE STUDY GUIDE by Alan R. Carter ISBN 0764530879. This is a very well written, concise and easy to read book with lots of good hands on labs! I passed the 70-67 server test with some help from THIS book. Good luck.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding reference, August 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: MCSE Windows NT Server 4 for Dummies (Paperback)

Unlike some of the readers who reviewed this book. I highly recommend it for the clear and concise information presented. I would not use it as a sole reference but in conjuction with another reference. Some answers in the book are incorrect (not many) but this is also the case in several of the highest rated books!! As a result, I passed the cert. exam on the first try. Enjoy

1.0 out of 5 stars I had a better chance at finding Waldo in this book., March 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: McSe Windows Nt Server 4 for Dummies (Paperback)

I had a better chance at finding Waldo in this book than finding accurate information regarding NT Server. I tore the pages out and let my new puppy pee all over them. If you're preparing for the NT Server exam, look elsewhere. The guy who wrote this book is a DUMMY. Shoot me if anybody ever sees me buy an MCSE for Dummies book again.
