5.0 out of 5 stars a complete solution for Novell and NT integration!, Nov 16 1999

By Ryan Rollings - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Novell's Guide to Integrating NetWare 5 and NT (Paperback)

Of all the books on computers, networking, technology, and testing that I have ordered and read, this book is the most easily understood and complete instruction yet. 7 Years of networking has taken me through many books to learn the craft and I always find myself searchng for more resources. The book "Novell 5 and NT" will get you 99% there and give you sources for the things it doesn't. This book is a high-paying career all by itself. Learn Novell and NT integration and you will be highly sought after. How do I know? It's my job! How did I learn? This book!

2.0 out of 5 stars More than a little outdated, July 25 2000

By Chris Hair - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Novell's Guide to Integrating NetWare 5 and NT (Paperback)

Although published in 1999, this book is more than a little outdated. About 1/3 of the book centers on the utility, "Novell Administrator for Windows NT". The book touts the utility as a free snap-in to NWAdmin, allowing a network administrator to administer NT Workstations and Servers through NDS. Herein lies the major problem with the book: the "Novell Administrator for Windows NT" is no longer available. It seems that after speaking with a Novell salesperson that the replacement is "NDS Corporate Edition", which is certainly NOT free. I have not figured out whether the book's content concerning Novell Administrator for Windows NT applies to NDS Corporate Edition, and I am not willing to pay thousands of dollars for the NDS Corporate Edition product to test it out.

3.0 out of 5 stars this book will get the job done - if you know how to read it, Jan 24 2002

This review is from: Novell's Guide to Integrating NetWare 5 and NT (Paperback)

Nowhere in this book does it claim to be a study guide for the Integrating NetWare and NT exam, however I'm sure many people will buy this book for just that purpose (myself included). The best book to study for the Integrating NT exam of course is to read the white book, however if you cannot get your hands on one, you do not have many choices. Pretty much the only viable alternative you have at that point is this book and the Sybex book - which is very outdated but still covers NT itself very well, which is essential for the exam and for getting the most out of this book. If you are going to use the Sybex book together with this book to prepare for the Integrating NT exam, make sure to take all of the other Novell tests that you need first, in order to get as good of a feel as possible for what Novell tests for on their exams. Then read the Sybex book (read everything about NT in there, and skip the chapters on integrating it with IntraNetware), followed by this book. In this book you can safely skip the first three chapters. Chapter 3, the one on NT networking, is the one where the authors do their worst Microsoft bashing, and as another reviewer here said, that chapter is practically unreadable. However, do make sure to read Chapter 5, in which the Novell Client is discussed, Chapter 6, in which synchronizing the directories is discribed, Chapter 7, which discusses NDS for NT, and Chapter 10, in which ZEN Works is discussed, very carefully. As you read those chapters, make yourself a list of EVERY last NLM, exe, command, vxd, etc. that you come across, along with a note of what that file or utility does and where it fits in. Also write down every procedure, where they are done, how you get to them, and what they do, and then memorize them. I have to emphasize that you do this for EVERY utility, file and procedure, no matter how obscure and insignificant they may seem from the text. If you do that, then IMO you will have a very good chance of passing the test with confidence.
