This review is from: Windows Nt Backup & Recovery (Windows Nt Professional Library) (Paperback)
I am amazed at how this book gets to the details of everything that can go wrong with an NT network. I immediately noticed some areas that were at risk on my own systems. This book got me thinking in the right direction. I manage a group of IS professionals and we set up a meeting to specifically discuss the findings in this book.

Indispensable Ref. for Admins of large AND small networks,
By david.lee@computer.org (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Windows Nt Backup & Recovery (Windows Nt Professional Library) (Paperback)
The volume of relevant background information contained in this book is impressive. What is even more helpful, however, are the detailed instructions for what to do in case of failure. I never knew there were so many options for recovery. There are many tips included to help you avoid certain modes of failure, as well as suggestions on how to take a proactive approach in dealing with the inevitable.
