Optimizing Windows NT [With Includes References to Utilities & On-Line Referen]

I work in Technical Support for a major backup software vendor. I love this book. It points out the same thing I point out to customers. Make sure your hardware is set right then you can check NT. Also great advice on NT Performance Monitor. Put this book on your NT troubleshooting shopping list. P.S. I bought the book alone from reading the same author's articles from Windows NT magazine, he had the same great straight forward info. Keep up the great work Sean.

The book walks through all facets of Windows NT operating system. It starts out from understanding NT architecture to advanced technical topics including tips/shortcuts, references and great utilities. It assist professionals to better understand, manage, plan and troubleshoot the proceesing power of Windows NT. I highly recommend this book to professionals that are designing, planning, and implementing Windows NT in any form of network environment.

Sean Daily has provided a book that picks up where my MCSE training left off. He covers the basics and then dives into optimization of NT systems. He also covers maintaining systems and troubleshooting/recovery techniques providing systems administrators with 'beeper insurance'. The included CD contains many useful resources and demo programs.

This is simply the best text of its sort on the market. It is an authoritative non-biased text based on getting the most oomph out of your NT network. And with a sense of humor! I can't imagine running a NT based network without this reference on my shelf!

This text is so complete! It goes from which hardware configurations will provide the greatest performance to obscure registry settings that will really improve perfromance. I intend on using the ideas presented in this book to help me optimize a four thousand client data server environment. A great find!
