Managing Windows Server 2008

This book should be of particular benefit to network administrators who have several years of hands-on experience and are comfortable with Server 2003 and Windows XP setup. Here they will get a hands-on insight into the new features of Server 2008 in collaboration with Windows Vista clients. Don't expect long introductory descriptions justifying the need for backups, the benefits of more domain controllers, or the addition of RAM for Windows Vista. Here, it's straight down to practice and solutions that will make your professional life easier. Part of the book is also devoted to techniques that are similar for both the latest versions of Microsoft clients and servers, but are not well known and are worthy of attention. The main focus of the book is on server and network administrators, but it will also be used by enthusiasts working with Vista and moving towards more advanced techniques such as scripts, registries and the command line.
