It's this simple: everyone responsible for a Windows host should have a copy of "Win32 Perl Scripting: The Administrator's Handbook."
Book Description
Scripting has become an enormously popular method of managing and maintaining Windows NT and 2000 networks<197>as evidenced by the success of Windows NT Shell Scripting, which has sold over 30,000 copies in 2 years. Simpler than programming, yet allowing greater complexity and utility than packaged network management tools, scripting is now the tool of choice by many of you network administrators. Perl is yet another powerful element of the scripting arsenal, yet since it has been ported to the Windows environment, very little information has been published on how to employ this extremely effective tool. Win32 Perl is so powerful that it can accomplish virtually any task that you may want to perform. Dave Roth, prolific creator of Win32 extensions, is prepared to share his unique insight into how these tasks can be accomplished and provide scripts that can be immediately employed. This book illustrates how Perl can automate many current mundane administrative tasks.
Customer Reviews & Comments
If you need to automate administrative tasks, ignore the O'Reilly Perl-Admin books, this one has a lot more substance and a very little fluff. Dave Roth is a prolific author of many very popular Perl modules for 32 bit Windows operating systems: Win32::Daemon, Win32::Perms, Win32::ODBC, Win32::AdminMisc, and many others. He is also an active participant in the Perl WinNT Admin mailing list This guy has a lot of real world experience with Perl and Win32. He's solved a lot of difficult problems. More than that, he does a great job of regularly taking the time to document and convey that knowledge on to others. The book is a great distillation of that knowledge.
