Unfortunately, Proxy Server has very little documentation from Microsoft. The docs consist only of online documentation in the form of web pages. These docs are both not organized in a way conducive to learning, nor portable, unless you are willing to print out the hundreds of pages.

Sybex solves these problems with the Exam Notes. This book organizes everything you need to study for the exam. I wouldn't recommend using just this one book to study, but instead to use it as a roadmap while working with the product to gain overall experience.

It is concise and comprehensive book. It is even better than other training guides. I think if you experienced with MS proxy server, you may just need this book for preparing the exam. Great.

If you have some understanding of Proxy, this book should fill in the blanks. I didn't have a question on my test that wasn't answered in this book.

Purchased this book in an effort to pass the proxy exam, and with the transcenders I passed just fine. The book does not have any fluff, it is very to the point, and still makes sense. The transcenders were just an added benefit. Put the two together and you will pass the exam.

Buy this book. Read it twice. Understand it. Perhaps buy another book about Proxy Server 2.0 for a little clarification and you should pass... I did it.

this book covers all bases with suprising depth. The way it is written hammers home the important points without becoming boring (well, not too boring). I used this as my sole study guide along with a large amount of practice tests and passed first time. The last 2 chapters have a lot of info that is not on the exam but are useful in the 'real' world of proxy. the book did a good job of clarifying the differences between the 3 services. Recommended!

Well, Sybex has done it again. Another accurate, to the point, dead on book. Buy it. It's cheap too.

You can definitely pass the exam by simply using this book and having a copy of the software to play around with. That's all I needed and the exam was a breeze.

Read this book in two weeks, and I have to say it follows the right order to explain the subject.

Don't expect to get a thorough knowledge of proxy server as it can only be achieved, like other reviewers said, with "hands on" experience. Also, make sure you are familiar with iis 4.0.

however it does prepare you for the exam, and with with the help of transcenders you will nail it at first try.

The book is good but you half to have allot of hands on for this test. Do notuse this as your only study source
