Description
The A to Z guide for planning and installing a successful NT network. Microsoft NT has become a popular network choice for many businesses because it is so easy to use. But businesses migrating to an NT network have found it painfully difficult to install. When installing NT it is essential to follow the proper order, but because of its newness, installation strategies are not widely known. With this book, Sue Plumley provides network administrators and IT managers with all of the important information they need to set up an NT server, from planning to installing to configuring to dealing with end users.
