About this title: Once you hook up your PC to a network, it's not a personal computer anymore. You are now part of a network of computers. You don't need to have a PhD to understand the benefits of networking. In fact, you learned everything you need to know in kindergarten: Networks are all about sharing. Specifically, networks are about sharing files, resources, and programs. Do you share information by copying files to a floppy disk and passing on the disk? Do you wait in line to use the computer that has the customer database? You need a network! Perhaps you already have a network, but find that your ...

"I learned just enough to be dangerous. I have a very high tech network infrastructure and this helped me to know what my staff are talking about, at least a little bit."
"Literally, this is one of my textbooks for graduate school. It's uber-informative, albeit a bit dry sometimes. However, I think it'll serve as a good reference for the future once the class is over!"
"When the network is down, or not up yet, and you can't find the appropriate reference material via the computer or network . . .
This is a d***** handy book to have on the shelf!
Every question you may have won't be answered by this 10-in-1 single volume but you won't even begin to ask every question that is addressed herein. Well, you might if you set up lots of networks, but by that time I hope you will have added some additional reference material!
Doug Lowe's latest will guide you through your first installation or answer a lot of questions in your 101st, middle of the night-got to get the network running or other 'moment' with the Wonderful World of Networks.
I've been working with networks of all flavors for over a quarter of a century (yes they've been around that long and longer) and I always like to see a new worthy additions to the resource 'pile'. This is one of those that not only will save time, but money as it combines multiple titles in one binding.
Oh, yes, it is paper that can be written on so those notes as to that 'special' address list, or that ornery password, or some esoteric set of options (You know, -h -r -s*** /we_are_totally_ ......) well that won't happen as often with only *one* volume to carry around or pull off the shelf.
Recommended for any user who needs a reference to a wide ranging knowledge base for networks at any given time. If nothing else it is a great note repository of where to go next!!"
