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.

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.

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.

I was very much impressed by the quality and quantity of information I found in this book. I'm even more dizzied by the talent of those writers who can compile over 1500 pages in an organized and clear method. Bravo !!!

This book is generaly written in a good way and easy to understand. But there are some chapters I wish them to be more detailed.

This is a very handy book for all Novell admins to keep in their top desk drawer. As a quick reference to many things Netware-related, this is a terrific resource.
