Mastering NetWare 5

Thanks to the author. I'd much rather READ five or six hundred pages than trudge through fewer pages of just detail. And I've successfully relied on this book to take my business from Netware 3.2 to version 5 - I know I'll need more info, but this has been a fine start.

This book is a super-duper one-volume covering about everything in Netware 5. With guidance from this book and a small knowhow of Netware-working, you can easily setup a brand new Netware 5 network with all needed software. The book is easy to read, which make it fast to look through and detailed enough to dig deep into special matters. The book also contains a very useful glossary and the "In-a-hurry" guidances are well planned. I bought this book to upgrade a NW 3.x network, and it covers it all!

I've read this book from cover to cover. I find it very helpful with it's step-by-step descriptions of various tasks dealing with NetWare 5. It is much better than the Clarke NetWare 4 and 5 books. There are some details lacking, but fundamentally, this book will be usefull long after you've read it (unlike the Clarke books). I enjoyed the style of writing and the pace was very good. Mr Gaskin managed to break the chapters into very logical parts and even broke down the subchapters very well also. This makes finding the information you need much easier.
