Descriptions Netware 5 Advanced Administration Exam Cram (Exam Cram (Coriolis Books)) Download
Though it delves into much more sophisticated topics than its sister publication on basic NetWare 5 administration, Exam Cram for Advanced NetWare 5 Administration manages to maintain the same pragmatic tone. For example, in the discussion of upgrading individual servers as well as entire networks to NetWare 5, readers will find material on minimum hardware and configuration requirements for the latest version of the Novell operating systems. In addition, there are lists of pre, during, and post steps. Some of these, like powering down servers before upgrading them, may be obvious to more seasoned administrators, but are good reminders nonetheless.
The sections that cover more radical departures for NetWare (i.e. the ability to exist in a pure IP network) are also well constructed. Good, succinct explanations of IP addressing, DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) and DNS (domain naming service) and their interdependence, followed by detailed directions on how they are implemented in NetWare 5, make for a solid combination.
An effective feature is the chapter-ending addendums containing related Web sites, and the number and titles of relevant Technical Information Documents or TIDs. The sample questions and answers at the end of each chapter are also helpful, as are the excellent glossary and appendices on commands and utilities and sample configuration files. --Sarah L. Roberts-Witt
