NetWare 5 CNE: Core Technologies Study Guide

I found this book very helpfull in preparing for the core tech exam but i found that it doesn't focus enough on subnetting and supernetting and i had to refer to external refrences to learn these subjects and to my surprise the test was full of subneting questions! over all its a very good book because it gives you good information and leaves out the usless stuff!

I read this book and passed the CNE exam. So it does work. Also, it is well written and well organized. But the real CNE exam is much harder than the practice questions in this books, and the book gives a wrong idea that the exam questions are all multiple choice. Some parts such as the hard disks section are a bit dated, as is giving Token Ring and Ethernet equal importance and having more discussion of Bridges than of switching hubs, but I guess that is consistent with Novell's tests. Also the occassional unexplained references to ArcNet might be confusing to some people.
