PREFACE: \ Introduction\ Just a few years ago, personal computers (PCs) were networked together in their own little islands using network services such as NetWare and LAN Manager to share printers and files. As these islands grew in size, administrators were appointed to take care of them. At the time, these administrators only needed to be concerned with the PC network protocols being used within their departments.\ With the introduction of Windows NT, a new class of PC servers began to emerge. Instead of just providing file and print services, other services such as email and database applications were provided on PC servers running the Windows NT operating system. PC servers were no longer separate islands and began making their way into the data center.\ UNIX servers, on the other hand, grew up in the data center as many mainframe functions were offloaded to UNIX servers. These UNIX servers were administered by trained UNIX administrators, who had little contact with PC server administrators.\ The arrival of PC servers in the data center heralded the arrival of the PC server administrators.

Program is to empower Sun customers with the technical knowledge required to implement reliable, available, extensible, and secure information systems within the data center using Sunproducts. The Sun BluePrints Program is managed by the Enterprise Engineering Group. This group provides a framework to identify, develop, and distribute best practices information that applies across the Sun product line. Technical subject matter experts in various areas contribute to the program and focus on the scope and usefulness of the information.\ The Enterprise Engineering Group is the primary provider of the technical content of the Sun BluePrints Program that includes books, guides, and online articles. Through these vehicles, Sun can provide guidance, installation and implementation experiences, real-life scenarios, and late-breaking technical information.\ The bimonthly electronic magazine, Sun BluePrints OnLine, is located on the Web at ...
