Product Review
Designed to provide businesses of fewer than 50 employees--which is to say, businesses without dedicated information systems staffs--with capable and reliable back-end information services, Microsoft Small Business Server 2000 has a potentially huge market. If you're a consultant who caters to that market, or someone who aspires to be one, you need to have Microsoft Small Business Server 2000 Resource Kit on hand and refer to it often. Like all Microsoft Resource Kits, this one ships with a CD-ROM that's enormously valuable. It contains an assortment of utilities--dozens of them--for use with Small Business Server, including one that locks floppy disk drives for unprivileged users, another that shows the active Kerberos tickets, and a third with which you can make any application run as a service. They're tools, and there are a lot of them. The odds are strong that you'll find some of them relevant to your situation.
Don't treat this solely as a software package, though. The authors--the documentation team at Microsoft--have created a definitive document on Small Business Server 2000 as it's meant to be installed and configured. The book is task-oriented (for example, there's a stepped procedure on how to create a NetWare Gateway account user) and generally clear, though the volume of documentation in this package is less graphical than some other late-model products in this series. Keep it on hand for reference during installation and reconfiguration. --David Wall
Topics covered: Microsoft Small Business Server 2000 recommended practices, standard procedures, troubleshooting, and reference material. A CD-ROM contains lots of diagnostic and configuration utilities for Small Business Server 2000 and for Windows 2000 generally.

Customer Reviews & Comments
This book was a real disappointment. I wanted something with the ins and outs, the pitfalls and must do's. This was an overview of features in MS SBS 2K. No thanks. I'll read that on the web. This book goes back!
