5.0 out of 5 stars Best book on Windows Policies/Profiles I've read yet
Well ok, it is also the first book dedicated to the subject I've read as well. Having always dug through Tech Net articles or the one or two chapters most books give to system policies and profiles (and don't even get me started on the lousy Resource Kits) it was very refreshing to have such a well done book on the subject.

2.0 out of 5 stars Windows 2000 came later
I'm very disappointed: I've bought this book hoping to find the advertized help about Win2K policies but all I've got about this subject is ONE chapter, 30 pages or so over 500 in the book.

This review is from: Windows 2000 System Policies (Book/CD-ROM package) (Paperback)
Well ok, it is also the first book dedicated to the subject I've read as well. Having always dug through Tech Net articles or the one or two chapters most books give to system policies and profiles (and don't even get me started on the lousy Resource Kits) it was very refreshing to have such a well done book on the subject.

The author covers Win NT4, Win 9x and Win2K. He's documented all the exceptions and changes the Resource Kits do not. Mr. Wilkins even manages to write in a style approachable to both the new administrator as well as the seasoned one. If you are going to roll out policies/profiles get this book.

Don't call it Windows 2000 System Policies, call it Windows 9X and NT with a quick and incomplete look to Windows 2000.
