Product Description
Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4 is a major platform for the Internet as well as corporate networks. And when it comes to roll-out and support issues surrounding this powerful OS, there's nothing that matches the multi-volume MICROSOFT WINDOWS NT SERVER RESOURCE KIT. In the kit you you'll find the Reference Guide and the Networking Guide, each in separate volumes of at least 1000 pages. Overflow information from each volume will appear in a third volume. This kit offers technical and performance information and tools available nowhere else, and is certain to be a valued resource. It's been a big seller in earlier editions and Microsoft Press will be aggressively pushing this edition as well. Because Microsoft Windows NT Server is a "back office" product, this Resource Kit is sold separately from Resource Kit for Microsoft Windows NT Workstation. The companion CD-ROM is packed with useful tools, including: Utilities from third-party developers Support utilities which streamline support issues Functionality utilities which enhance Microsoft Windows NT 4 and add features The complete text of both the Windows NT Workstation Resource Kit and the WINDOWS NT SERVER RESOURCE KIT

4.0 out of 5 stars A must for the NT Admin Pro, September 13, 1998

By	[e-mail] (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews

Has technical details neccessary for fault tollerance/recovery, thick details about architecture, connectivity and lots of great tools on the cd-rom. Complement this with the NT Workstation RK and you'll have good source for studying for NT Admin-Enterprise-TCP/IP test for MCSE. Stuff in here that is not in courseware.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good but Pricey Intro, Much Better Alternatives, December 7, 1998

By A Customer

As a practicing certified systems engineer in a major corporation with a very large network of NT servers and workstations and a variety of other systems, the only tools I've found useful in the Resource Kits are those involving deployment. Ghost and Ghost Walker, however, have completely replaced them. QUE's MCSE TestPrep Core Exams and other volumes on Windows NT are better written, far more extensible, and better targeted for everyone from the beginning through the professional user.

This review is from: Microsoft Windows Nt Server Resource Kit Version 4.0: Supplement 1 (Microsoft Professional Editions) (Paperback)

With this book I was able to have a step by step understanding of how Microsoft Windows NT works. There is a lot from this book that would save you a lot of time discovering the power of Windowds NT.
