The classic has been improved 5 out of 5 stars.
11 of 13 people found this review helpful.

Back in 1993, during my senior year at school, I had to learn computer networks. Back then, the only decent book available was Prof Tanenbaum's 2ed. I had found that book boring because it covered every possible networking algorithm and technique in the world without any references to real-world networks.

Recently, after spending 12 years working on various protocols and networking devices (from DSL modems to core routers), I realized that I had lost touch with the larger world of networking. I had no clue about WiMax, Content Networks, etc. So, I started looking around for a simple to read book that would give me good enough perspective on these new technologies. And I happen to find Tanenbaum's newest 4ed book on Computer Networks.

I really enjoyed reading this book. Prof Tanenbaum explains the concepts very well. He also throws in a piece of his mind here-n-there throughout the book. Almost all of his observations are hilarious. The book is huge, but, with all the funnies thrown in, it is easy to read and understand.

My only complaint would be that some of the material needs to be rearranged to better suit the evolving networking technology world. But, even as it is, the book is a great, easy read for one and all, whether you are a student of computer science, computer engineering, or a manager wanting to brush up on the latest technologies, you will find all the know-how here in this book.

Editorial Review:

New edition of the classic best-seller. Takes a structured approach to networking, starting at the bottom and gradually working up to the top. DLC: Computer networks.

Best Installation Guide 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

Having worked with Exchange since 5.0 I have read many installation guides and administrator's handbooks and I would rate this one as the best. I acquired this book after teaching how to configure and install Exchange 2007 to corporate clients and I have since done away with delivering them my own notes and simply recommend that they purchase this book. It is the ultimate guide to installing and configuring Exchange from a technical perspective. Way to go!

Editorial Review:

According to Microsoft, Exchange Server delivers over 75% of all corporate e-mail. The 2007 release is the fist major overhaul since 2003. It attempts to address the challenge of delivering greater performance and accessibility while increasing protection against a new generation of high risk security threats. Microsoft has added many new features that dramatically improve the scope of Exchange Server and the Outlook web client, positioning the platform as a groupware and collaboration tool that is accessible to remote and wireless users as will as those wired directly to the corporate intranet. The typical SysAdmin needs a reference that cuts through all the complexity and seldom-used features to get the product successfully deployed as efficiently as possible---exactly the job of the "How to Cheat" series.

If you hate reading on the internet.... 3 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

If you hate reading on the internet its an OK book....for basics....

Its outdated and all the information in the book is available on the internet if you are good with google.

Setting up a small home or business network.......buy a used copy to use as a reference for the most basic information....

I gave it three stars.....its got older info and not much detail....but it is good basic information....and if you buy a good used copy like I did ......its worth having on the bookshelf as a reference.

okay but errors 3 out of 5 stars.

Sloppy editing.
Started reading this book today. Now at page 117 which is about 1/3 of the book and already found six (6) very obvious errors. Pretty pathetic for a book in its 8th edition.

As an example, on page 117, subnet mask is 255.255.240.0 yet the diagram shows it as all (1s)
--> 11111111 11111111 11111111 11111111 when it should be
--> 11111111 11111111 11110000 00000000

The Best Book for SharePoint out there!!! 5 out of 5 stars.
14 of 14 people found this review helpful.

This is the second SharePoint book I bought and once again this is the best and only book you need to deploy and engineer SharePoint Services or Server 2007. I am planning on upgrading our SharePoint 2.0 to Portal 2007 and this book gives enough information. Highly recommend this book to anyone who is in the process of deploying, engineering and supporting SharePoint Portal or Services.

Sr. Systems Engineer

Make sure this is your first SharePoint book 4 out of 5 stars.
5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

SharePoint technologies is much more different than any other Microsoft technologies. You can install SQL Server or Microsoft.NET or Visual Studio with ease and start working on the product right away.

Regardless of what your role in your organization - programmer, power user, administrator, architect - one thing is must that if you want to learn SharePoint, you need to understand how to install and configure WSS and MOSS servers. It has many installtion models and one must learn what they are installing and what services they are configuring before creating first site collection or site to host team site or portal site.

That's where this book comes in picture. Forget that its part of Wrox's Beginning series and make sure this is your first SharePoint book at any cost. After first chapter of SharePoint introduction, Goran takes us through the WSS and MOSS installation and Configuration process in next 4 chapters. Understanding basics and what's going on behind the installtion and configution process is one of the key fundamentals one must know to be a great SharePoint programmer or administrator. Once you install and configure the product, make sure to go through Chapter 6 and 8 for advanced configurations and overview of outofbox WSS and MOSS site templates.

Although I have mixed opinion on remaining chapters - Office Integration, WCM, Document Management, and SharePoint designer, I must say this book is worth to have in your bookshelf for key WSS and MOSS installtion and configuration topics.

Editorial Review:

While the main focus of this book is on SharePoint administration, you will also learn how to customize SharePoint by creating templates and using SharePoint Designer to enhance the look and feel of SharePoint sites. Microsoft MVP and author Göran Husman explores the differences between Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) and Windows SharePoint Services (WSS), helps you decide if you need only WSS or if you should also implement MOSS, and much more.
