>>Mastering NT Server 4

Yes, a very good book by a guy who's been there and done it
himself (Minsai, the main author). There is a workstation
version, but I haven't used it.

However, unless the WS version has a different slant (which
it may well), it is very much for the network administrator
and relatively light on NT organizational basics to my mind.
Diddling the interface, for instance.

I felt this probably more than you because I picked it up
only a month or two after installing NT in the first place.

I'd recommend an NT beginner try something more basic to start
with, though I can't say what because this one is my main
reference<g>.

Of course the WS book probably has a different slant.
Definitely worth checking out.

At least you can trust what he says, which isn't by any
means universally true (though he does occasionally slip
back to NT 3.51 without warning).

You can never have
enough computer books... :)


or enough money to buy them with<g>

Your Sybex book sounds over my head,but must be excellent....I'll check it out anyway though in hopes of a mysterious overnite brain cell rejuvenation <g>

Of course I'm going ahead to purchase the NT Resource Kit, like everybody else. Bill could use a couple extra bucks for his legal defenses <g>
