Wouldn't Be Without It
I cannot imagine not having this great little book around. Even in these days of Vista, I still find many uses, and learn new stuff, from it. A must-have for any administrator, or anyone just wanting to get more from the command line (yes, it still exists). ;-)

Concise but thorough pocket reference
I knew a little about XML before reading this book, but nothing in-depth. I've been a software developer for years however, so I didn't want a basics book, but something that covered the subject quickly and in depth. After reading the other reviews I bought this book and was not disappointed. I was particularly interested in XML Schema and XSLT, and this book does an excellent job with both. I'm ...

Truly Fantastic!
Stanek's Windows Server 2008 Inside Out is the definitive resource for network administrators who are deploying and using Windows Server 2008. I've never found a single server book that tells you everything you will ever need to know about any edition of Windows Server, but this one comes close and it digs in much deeper into the most relevant topics than any other Windows Server 2008 book I've ...

Excellent!
I gave this to my wife who is completely new to the Net. She loved it! The book did what I couldn't do in 2 1/2 years of marriage. After a few days she was using the net and web like a pro. The in a weekend concept is strong. It tells you that you'll be able to learn it quick. This is true. I'm not sure a complete newcomer could learn all this in a weekend. My wife took her time, reading about 2 ...

Excellent beginner to mid-level book
This is an easy to read book with the detail you would expect from a pocket consultant. The author doesn't waste time with the basic chit-chat and does a good job of laying out the useful material. Content includes initial setup, backup, performance monitoring/tuning and more advanced features such as registry and metabase settings. Advanced readers will eventually want to search for further ...

Saved the day!
I bought this book for our Exchange admin when we were moving to Exchange 2000 from 5.5. Two months later I was going to be the one implementing Exchange and this book came to the rescue in a big way. As a total Exchange newbie I learned everything I needed (and now know) about Exchange from this book. Sure there are bigger books but not better books. If you are a Exchange guru, this book will be ...

This book is well written, easy to follow and concise, yet packed with lot's of useful information and hints and tips for Windows 2000. I consider myself a fairly expert Windows admin, but still learned quite a lot from this book. Like other Windows books that Stanek has written, ...

A must have for IIS 7
I've had IIS 7 Administrator's Pocket Consultant for several months now. I've read it cover to cover and refer to it all the time. I'm always amazed at how much information William can pack into his pocket consultants and especially with this one. William starts out by telling you IIS 7 is completely different from its predecessors and then showing what you need to know right away to be ...

William Stanek is the #1 windows guru for a reason. His work is highly respected and his pocket consultants are always excellent. The first edition of this book is the go to book for every ITer I've ever worked with. When the second edition came out, I didn't hesitate to buy it and I wasn't disappointed. I normally don't read technical books cover to cover, but I read this cover to cover ...

EXCELLENT BOOK FOR ADMINISTRATORS AND DEVELOPERS
Sometimes when I read reviews people have written I wonder if they've actually read the book or simply thumbed through it in a bookstore or did a search of the pages. This is an excellent book and I've found it to be extremely helpful in setting up and configuring SQL Server 2005. This book isn't meant to be an allinone monster book, its a concise, focused book covering the core of SQL Server ...

Not just for administrators
Out of 5 Windows XP Prof. books this is the one I use the most. This book is packed with useful information, well written, excellent details. By the way, contrary to many other publications that claim to be up-to-date with the latest software version, this book was REALLY written about Windows XP Service Pack 2.

one of the best resources I've ever encountered.
this book is the sum of all knowlage about Web Publishing and site management. this book delves into mysteries from how to use HTML to how to get those pages to load faster and easier... and more. I use this book as a self-study reference and I have learned more than I would have had I taken a formal course on web publishing.

Wonderful book that covers a lot!
I found the book to be packed with useful examples. With so many useful examples I don't believe the previous reviewer even read this book! The book covers a lot of ground and is a book for developers.

FrontPage 97 Unleashed is a great book. I have all three editions. If you use FrontPage 98, you should buy the latest edition. FrontPage 98 Unleashed. This book took me from knowing nothing to being the on site FrontPage guru! I love it!

Great book
This book is well written and organized. As a network admin, I found it very useful getting me familar w/ Vista. It has enough info to help me do my job, but not too much to be bored or too detailed on some common taks/commands/procedure. Indeed, a good admin guide, not for study in more detailed level for tests/exams --J.L., MCSE, MCT, CCNA

Stanek's Best Book - Easy to read
This book covers with essential information for a network administrator. The author is very knowledge about the Windows 2003 server and the book is very well written in very simple readable manner with lots of "screen shots". This is the book I used the most! You will be amazed how many new things are added in the Windows 2003 Server. The first five chapters covered essentials information ...

Great Guide For Desktop Support Staff
This book is good for Support Staff working with Windows XP Professional systems and MS Server 2003, assuming that you have basic Windows and networking skills already, don't look for chapters on installing Windows and it's architecture here.

THE BEST ONE STOP RESOURCE
I needed a comprehensive book on Windows Server 2003 and this is the one I picked after reading through all the others at the bookstore. Stanek has the most comprehensive coverage I've ever seen in a single book on security, filesystems/availability, Active Directory, and most anything else you'd want to know about Windows Server. I've been an admin for 12 years and there's things I learned that ...

Great little Exchange 2003 Admin book
There have been several of these types of books published by MS Press. Several years ago I purchased the Exchange Pocket Consultant. These books, and the information provided by William Stanek, are great. I traveled quite a bit doing Exchange migrations and clustering. The ability to toss something light, but dense with great information, into a backpack was awesome. It was also fun to ...
