Customer Reviews

Great Book to Jump-in With4
I wrote a couple of sidebars for this book and enjoyed reading it when I received my copy. If you're looking for a book to give you a good picture of the Windows Server 2008 AD landscape including the various services which have been branded as part of AD (e.g. Certificate Services, Rights Management, etc), this is a good title to pick-up. There are plenty of screenshots and procedural walkthroughs as well as advice from the standpoint of Microsoft. If you're looking for something super detailed and in-depth, this may not be what you're looking for.

Exceptional recource for 2K85
Just as Mr. Mulcare wrote the definitive resource for AD on Win2K3,
Active Directory for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Technical Reference (Pro-Technical References) he has done it again with this resource kit. His knowledge of the product and ability to pass along critical information on Active Directory is exceptional. Keep up the good work and I look forward to whatever you write for Win7!
