Anyone who installs Windows 2000, creates a user or adds a printer is a 2000 system administrator.

\ From Barnes & NobleThe Barnes & Noble Review\ Fast, accurate answers. Windows 2000 Server system administrators need 'em. This book's got 'em. Mitch Tulloch focuses on networks -- and has done a solid job of targeting those tasks administrators are most likely to perform. \ Tulloch starts with two chapters outlining how Windows 2000 Server is different from NT 4 -- including a potpourri of tips experienced NT administrators would want to know about up-front (for example, Tulloch's recommendation to configure global disk quotas, not quotas for individual users).\ The remaining five chapters -- the heart of the book -- are organized for easy, quick access to information. There's an alphabetical concepts chapter covering everything from accounts to workgroups. There's a step-by-step Tasks chapter, organized topically, with extensive notes (and no time wasted on absolute beginner's stuff). There's a detailed Consoles chapter focusing on the Microsoft Management Console, which brings together most of Windows 2000's administrative tools. There's an alphabetical reference to the myriad administrative tools and snap-ins Windows 2000 provides -- a great help, considering how many of these tools have been renamed or relocated.\ And, finally, as befits an O'Reilly guide, there's a detailed command line reference. If you've never used a command line to administer Windows 2000 Server, you might be amazed at how much you can accomplish -- and how fast you can get it done.
