This book is for people who want to learn about Windows Server 2003, Micro$oft�s latest Windows-based network operating system. No experience with any prior version of Windows is required, although a familiarity with the Windows user interface is definitely helpful. You should have a basic understanding of computer networking, as Windows Server 2003 relies heavily on networking technologies. This book focuses on the many features of Windows Server 2003, including advanced topics like Terminal Services and Certificate Services. The purpose of this book is to teach you enough to begin working with Windows Server 2003 on a regular basis; only time and practice will make you an expert with such a complex product.
This book is designed to teach you the fundamental job tasks that most corporate network administrators need to know in just a single weekend. You�ll learn through a series of very short, very focused sessions that each teach you how to accomplish a specific, key job task.
This book jumps right in by showing you the various ways to install Windows Server 2003. From there, the sessions introduce the materials you�re most likely to need as an administrator of Windows Server 2003 computers, especially file and print services.
Later sessions introduce more advanced topics, like Terminal Services, security, and TCP/IP. I�ll walk you through all the major TCP/IP technologies, including DNS, DHCP, WINS, FTP, IIS, and more (don�t worry � all of those acronyms will make sense by Saturday evening). I�ll wrap up this Crash Course with really advanced topics, like Windows Clustering, troubleshooting, performance optimization, and Certificate Services.
