Summary: If you are an IIS 4.0 Admin, this is a must have!
Comment: This was the most useful book I had in my collection when I was an IIS 4.0 administrator. This is a must have for any IIS 4.0 admin, absolutly the best book on this subject.
Rating: 4
Summary: Very Good Overview
Comment: This is the documentation that IIS has been lacking. Most significant issues facing web managers are consolidated in one book. Highly recommended.
Rating: 1
Summary: This book will not teach how to administer a 2000 web server
Comment: First off, the book is dated. IIS 5 is now out, and IIS 4 is a couple years old. Although 5 doesn't differ much from 4, Windows NT does differ from 2000. In addition some of the ASP coding is a little dated (especially, since MS new .NET framework).
Secondly, the book never really takes you step by step on what you have to do to set up a web site. It doesn't go through important things like setting up DNS or DNS strategies. Also left out is anything regarding receiving email (of course that another MS product and another MS book). I guess the book does live up to being a book about IIS 4 -- and only IIS 4. Why the book has to be nearly 600 words about just IIS is beyond me?
Thirdly, some of the resources and tools are just plain useless. I mean who the heck uses the built in traffic analysis? There many programs out there that provide better detailed reporting.
Finally, the really potentially useful information, such as interacting with IIS through VB and ASP, is glossed over. The author, I suppose, figures that you'll learn how to do it on your own.
I bought this book hoping to brush up on skills and maybe pick up on better methods of how to run a MS web server, but this book did not deliver. If you want a book that is overly verbose and can put you to sleep this is it, but if you want to learn how to run a MS web server don't waste your money.
