About The Author
Eriq Neale, SBS MVP, spent a year on the SBS support team at Microsoft, giving him troubleshooting insight with the product that the majority of other consultants and authors do not have. This breadth of experience landed Eriq a position as a Support Engineer with Microsoft in 2004. During that year, he worked on the Small Business Server support team, providing support on all three levels of the SBS product: SBS 4.5, SBS 2000, and SBS 2003 Standard and Premium. In addition to supporting Microsoft customers, Eriq also developed a number of internal support documents for SBS technologies and solutions, and provided assistance to team members on Macintosh integration issues.

Customer Reviews & Comments
There are several good books on Microsoft SBS 2003 but I have to say that this is the best I have read. Eriq Neale (Amy Babinchak, Susan Bradley, Chad Gross, Anne Stanton and many others) are the top names in the SBS community. They are all either MVP's or frequent contributors to the SBS email lists and blogs. When these folks speak you should listen. The book is a great resource for all levels. It introduces chapters at a basic level for someone who wishes to do their first install but then goes onto discuss Best Practices and even more important Troubleshooting tips. The book covers all the standard topics but also is one of the only books that covers topics like Macintosh integration Patching and ISA 2004. If you manage an SBS server or are a consultant getting ready to take the SBS Specialist exam this book is for you. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
