poor is a good begining

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 1997

This book was almost a rehash of the various FAQ's -- just with less information. If you want to install and run on a Solaris machine it is a little more helpful. The index is horrible. There is more filler about good corporate policy than anything else. The only redeeming value (and the reason I gave it a three0 is that it does give step-by-step instructions on compiling innd. That's about it. Not what the directory hierarchy is for, no trouble shooting, nothing

Disappointing book

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2000

I agree with the other negative reviews.
The index is really very bad - I hardly ever find anything I'm looking for.
I can only describe it as a curious mix of sometimes very arcane information which may be useful for usenet gurus and absence of information for a novice user
