This is THE essential SharePoint 2007 reference for Administrators and Developers.
This is the only book that covers User Profile Properties, and LDAP connection values, scaling out to a SharePoint Server Farm and STSADM (the SharePoint command line interface.) The book contains many powerful, and little known, STSADM commands throughout every chapter, with an amazing STSADM appendix in the back of the book.
Topics covered include:

Deploying SharePoint 2007, recommended topologies and required resources.

Operations and Application management using Central Administration.

Creating and customizing site collections.

Creating and implementing workflows.

Farm, server, application, and site collection security.

Deploying, configuring, and using Share Service Providers.

Creating, configuring, and customizing intranet and internet portals.

Using site columns, content types, and official records using SharePoint
server Enterprise Content management.

Scaling out to a SharePoint server farm, and backing up restoring a farm.

Logging and process analysis of SharePoint and related technologies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank you sir, can I have another?, February 7, 2009

I turn to this book first, then to the other MOSS Administrative books for more detail if needed. I love that I can just read a chapter in this book and "get it" and if I need more depth, I turn to the Best Practices book. This should be on your shelf as part of your MOSS success strategy, you won't be sorry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best overall Quick Reference SharePoint Book, January 14, 2009

By

This review is from: Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies Administrator's Pocket Consultant (Paperback)

This is the best overall quick reference book on SharePoint. During my SharePoint consulting days, this was the one book I would never go to a client site without. It includes a great reference of STSADM commands. It is a great book for a SharePoint newbie or a seasoned professional.
