A friend of mine show me this book lately. I decided to read the book, even though i'm well trained windows 2000 security expert. I managed to read it twice from cover to cover in one week.
Well, the book is well suited for beginners and intermediate users, students (MCSE candidates), administrators, technical engineers and windows 2000 instructors.
The Book started well covering the Kerberos Protocol and then moving on to PKI,IPSec and VPN. Each technology deserves a book for itself. The Authors intended the book only for technologies overview therefore it's not a step-by-step guide. You'll not find real world tips and tricks while implementing those technologies in windows 2000. Even the registry is not mentioned once. I find the book informaive but the part of Windows 2000 lacks important information. The authors will better do if they will split the book to two parts - the first will cover all the security technologies presented in Windows 2000 and the other half dealing with implementation - step by step guide to successful implementation. Doesn't sound a bad idea, is it?
