A Great intro to the subject

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I had heard that previous versions were so-so, but this edition had everything a non-expert would need to understand the basics of the TCP/IP protocal. It easily explained the differnce between IMAP and POP3; how FTP works; HTML vs XML; and the section on security (SSL, SSH, etc.) was excellent, as was the hardware section.It truly is dummied down, and don't rely on it if you really want to configure telnet in a linux environment, but for basics it's excellent.

Great Format

This book has great format. It flows well. The exam cram for TCP/IP was useful for their practice exams, but this book did the best job of laying out the material in an understandable way. I didn't really know much about TCP/IP until I read this book. It helped me study for and pass the Microsoft Exam the best. Although practice questions really helped the most. For me to get a good understanding and grasp of TCP/IP this book made it happen.

Excellent EXCELLENT BOOK.

Being someone that knows Linux/Unix/Win environment and knows bits and pieces of the techno-babel that TCP/IP poses, I wanted to fill in all my questions with solid information and get prepared for delving into advanced topics of TCP/IP. This is EXACTLY what this books prepares you for. For any beginner that knows nothing or something and wants to fill in every hole about networking (atleast every question I had). The detail was wonderful getting into Unix files and NT settings and clients settings and so forth.
