I-Net+ Certification Study System [With CDROM]

I really liked the way this book was written. What people must know is that certain terms are not explained (even on the first mention) meaning that the author assumes you know a certain amount about the basics. I appreciated that, because too many books re-hash the same old things that most people already know, while exam time is looming closer.(and Christmas) I'm not an expert either, by the way, I've had no previous experience in the industry, but have been studying for the last nine months for a diploma in computer enginnering, and managed to pass the Windows98 MCP exam in August. I passed the i-Net+ exam with 88%.To sum up, this book has a strong focus on exam objectives, and for me, it answered a lot of questions that I couldn't seem to find answers for previously. Thanks Joseph!

I can't say enough good things about this book. Everything you need for the exam is here, and clearly explained in an easy to read format. The examples are great. I really like the software (lots of FREE software) included so I could set up my own servers and see first hand how e-mail and the web works. I passed the exam on my first attempt using this book as my study guide. I've read both books by this author and trust him to give honest, easy to follow, and relevant information. Well worth the money...and then some!

I don't think some of these other reviewers actually read this book, or at least not very carefully. Mr. Byrne covers the entire exam objectives clearly and completely. His writing style is easy to understand and entertaining as well. I had very little Internet experience but I spent the time to read this book, study the information presented, and re-read the area that I wasn't very sure of. After properly preparing (with just this book and the BeachFront Quizzer included on the CD) I passed the exam with a 92%. Not only did I pass, but now I understand how to create my own Web, Email, and DNS servers! Pretty cool stuff! So if you failed the exam, don't blame this book, its more likely that you didn't prepare yourself enough. This book covers it all. Everything you need to know you'll find in this book and then some.

The book is very complete and includes labs and the tools needed to learn everything required for the i-NET+ certification test. It could be easy to over look the labs, completing them is very benificial when you take the test. I used only this book to pass the test.

The iNet+ Certification Study System is a great resource for learning all about how Internet works! The topics match the exam objectives perfectly and completely. This is not just a good study guide however. Anyone interested in knowing how Internet technologies work should read this book. Its the only one I've found that is easy to read but at the same time gives an in-depth look into how the Internet operates. I passed the test using just this book and I had very little previous Internet experiance. I now feel capable of actually "doing" Internet related services for my company. The CD also contains a number of great software programs including a Web server, Web Page editor, and e-mail server that I have up and running in my home in less than 2 hours, thanks completely to Mr. Byrne's clear step-by-step explainations.
