4.0 out of 5 stars Concise and to the point, April 4, 2000

This review is from: Novell's NetWare® 5 Administrator's Handbook (Paperback)

I bought copies for all of our administrators. We found it useful for both the beginner and more advanced Admin - it's a quick, easy reference for everyday use. Great for checking the syntax of those commands you use infrequently--a real time saver! Comprehensive with just the right amount of detail.

2.0 out of 5 stars Underpowered for the experienced administrator, January 21, 2000

This review is from: Novell's NetWare® 5 Administrator's Handbook (Paperback)

While this book delivers on it's promise to be a "Quick Reference Guide" for the Network administrator, it just does not provide enough information for an experienced NetWare admin. Instead, consider "Novell's Complete Guide to NetWare 5 Networks" You will find all of the information contained in the Administrator's Handbook in this volume, except it goes a bit deeper into the technical aspects of NetWare networks.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but could be better:, July 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Novell's NetWare® 5 Administrator's Handbook (Paperback)

Isn't a handbook supposed to have more samples and exercises? I wish this book would be a guide to practical hand-on experience more than an accumulation of short explanation that I could have gotten a better one in other books of references. Nonetheless, the book isn't bad for a beginner, who could use this book first, and then venture into more advanced books.
