Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Microsoft's Resource Kits aren't just expensive boxed sets that you buy anymore for their utility-packed CD-ROMs. Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Resource Kit, typical of the recent additions to the line, backs up its valuable collection of administration utilities with excellent technical advice, official wisdom, and precise writing. If you know enough about Exchange 2000 Server to recognize the problems that you're going to face in deploying it, this kit will give you the knowledge and tools that you need. It's worth noting that this product has to do primarily with deployment and configuration. Everyday operation of Exchange 2000 Server isn't nearly as difficult as getting the system set up correctly in the first place. The utilities and documentation here help you to get the messaging system off the ground properly.

The authors--who are members of the development team and Microsoft's consulting arm--explain the options that are available to the administrator at each point, and when each one is appropriate. But they leave up to you the decision about the path to take. This approach, when combined with the high-quality documentation on the software utilities that ship with this product, is well suited to technically accomplished readers. For concise treatment of Exchange 2000 Server administration issues, especially those that pop up after implementation time, consider Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Administrator's Pocket Consultant. --David Wall

Topics covered: Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server, particularly its deployment and initial configuration. Fitting the server into an Active Directory system (both existing and built from scratch); some utilities and text address the problem of dealing with multiple AD forests. Administration goals, including virus control, security, and efficient routing.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Get this book!
    Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2000
    If you plan to evaluate and/or deploy Exchange 2000, this book is a must have! It provides project planning, prototyping - to such an extent that it provides testing templates/criteria for Anti-Virus product evaluations; bare bones minimum deployment to advanced deployment topics such as Instant Messaging and Outlook Web Access. This book speaks to both the consultant AND the day-to-day administrator. For instance, they include hardware requirements for every scenerio you can think of, project templates, and especially nice for consultants, a functional spec template. That won me over completely. This was my best buy of the year!

    3.0 out of 5 stars As an implementation companion it failed!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2002
    Verified Purchase
    I bought this as a reference companion to a recent Exchange 2K implementation. Unfortunately, I ended up using it very lightly.
    The format of the chapters is mostly scenario concepts that dive into some details pertinent to each. The primary text being scenario based causes me to thumbs-down the general layout of the book.
    I was unsatisfied when looking to the index for topics that would give me practical understanding, and therefore some guidance on best practice for certain Exchange 2K topics. The book kept on about the ideas of possible implementation and specific case studies it includes.
    I may read through it again for some general less practical Exchange 2K knowledge, but I expected quality like that from the Windows 2000 Server Resource Kit, but not so.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Finding ways to make the transition better.
    Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2002
    I have been working with Exchange Servers for about 2 years, and now I in the process of going to Exchange 2000. I thought this would be a fairly transparent transition. After reading through this book I was amazed at how much work goes into the migration and upgrade.

    From the planning of Exchange 2000 in an NT environment, to deploying and using Active directory services to over a 100 pages for upgrading and testing, which I found to most important reading.

    Also there is discussion of the clients, working with applications that integrate with Outlook and exchange as well as Terminal Server and Outlook Web Access. I have already used or will be using several ideas that I learned from this book.

    Finally there is a cd with tools and utilities included that help diagram the topology and another for modifying the Global Address list. Working with a couple of other people and using this book, the transition should be less complicated that I first thought

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good but let down by the Index
    Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2000
    The book seems good and goes into alot of detail in some sections. Haven't really read enough of the book at this stage to comment further. However...
    The index looks like an after-thought in the copy I have. It has blank pages throughout which should have index entries on them and all lines are double spaced so the index uses many more pages than is necessary. This may be just a printing problem and I expect that this is fixed in later print runs. Still, not really good enough for a book that costs $130 (in Australia).
