This is an expert, comprehensive, real-world guide to every aspect of administering Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2000 Advanced Server.

Next, gain an in-depth understanding of what it takes to deploy and manage the Active Directory; manage users and the new group policies; security, print and file services, networking, and more.

Section III covers enterprise-class Windows 2000 administration issues, including performance tuning, integration with Microsoft System Management Server, running Terminal Server, and clustering.

The book also contains a handy quick-reference guide covering the most important commands in both the core operating system and the Windows 2000 Resource Kit toolset.

For all sysadmins and netadmins working with Windows 2000, or planning to do so; and for senior IT managers responsible for architecting, deploying, and managing Windows 2000 environments.
