Summary: Zimbabwean Perspective
Comment: This book fails to embrace and recognize new trends in the computer hardware industry in terms of future trends, the role of the internet and how it will have an infulence on any new developments

Rating: 4
Summary: Good for its time, dated now.
Comment: Readers should remember that when this book was published, there was no IIS3, no ASP, and no de facto web server standard for Windows NT; therefore none of this information is adequately covered. What is/was covered is a wealth of general info to help beginners set up an NT Web Server from the ground up. From the beginners perspective, it does that pretty well. With the release of IIS4, things have, of course, changed. I'd still consider this useful for beginners wanting to set up a small web server or Intranet, but urge them to use IIS4 and skip the chapters on the 3rd party stuff.

Also, the section on TCP/IP is a complete chapter.

Rating: 1
Summary: Should be called a "details-free" executive summary.
Comment: The cover says "Everything you need to get Windows NT 4 connected to the internet", this is a very complex process for which the book doesn't give a single detail. It is a conceptual overview of the internet as a whole. To give you an example the entire section on configuring TCP/IP is less than 6 sentences. Don't waste your money!!!
