Summary: "And Then There Were None"
Review: "And Then There Were None" was an amazing book written by Agthia Christie. It is of course a murder mystery. It is generally about ten people who are brought to the house in the middle of nowhere and one by one they start to die. None of the people can figure out who the other one is the killer. It is definitly one book that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Summary: ***Very Helpful***
Review: After buying and returning 2 other books, I'm glad I finally found a book on Windows 2003 I plan to keep!I've been working with Windows since 3.51, and as an MCSE, all I was looking for was a book *on* Windows 2003, not a cut-paste job of some Windows 2000 book. I've been beta testing Windows 2003 for several months, but wanted to double check for expert advice before biting the bullet on the migration this summer. Based on the book abstract from the authors that said this book was written from *ground up*, I was hopeful this was it! C1 on the technology primer was a great overview of what to expect in Windows 2003. C5 and C6 on design were good reading, I wish I knew some of *tips* before migrating to Windows 2000 a couple years ago. C17 on Windows 2000 to Windows 2003 migrations gave me several suggestions on how to migrate. And C31 on clustering was the best coverage on load balancing and clustering that I've ever seen printed in a book. This is a book that an experienced NT or Windows 2000 administrator or architect would find helpful!

Summary: 1310 pages of wonderful stuff.
Review: During the year and almost a half since Server '03 came out, Microsoft has released several Feature Packs. These have not only fixed bugs, but tightened security, and changed the way Server '03 would be implemented and supported. Each of these has been analyzed and incorporated into this new edition of this 'standard' book.
The CD contained with the book includes far more than the normal code samples and other useless stuff. Here are the Feature Packs, the Server '03 Tools, Windows rights Management Services Client and Server SDKs and 14 Webcasts by the author.
This is not a book that you'll want to sit down and read from front to back at one setting. It is, however, more than a reference book. the authors write with a sense that they know what they are doing. They've been there and done that. The writing style shows that they can compare what the OS does now in comparison with what it did in earlier versions. I found this to be of great help when I was trying to do something the old way and the book pointed out that this is the way its done now. The book is not a surprise, you probably know what you are getting and you won't be disappointed.

Summary: Perfect for Migrations!
Review: I bought this book a couple months ago based on the reviews here on Amazon. The primary purpose of buying the book was to help guide us through the design and migration from NT4 to Windows 2003. While we have a long way to go (we're about 1/3 the way through our migration), we used the Windows Server 2003 Unleashed book as our bible. We're looking to expand our migration to include IPSec security and Group Policies once we're done with the core migration. The only thing I was disappointed with the book was it's lack of information on IPv6. That's my next project here, but as I've been reading on the public boards, Microsoft may be changing the way they support IPv6, so maybe it's better we just hold off. But I bought the book for migration hints from NT to 2003, and this book guided us along the way. Two thumbs up!

Summary: Wonderful book!
Review: I bought this book after Mr Morimoto present in Tokyo last month. I work for American company that migrates to Windows 2003 later this year. I prepare in advance to migrate our Japan and Asia offices. Mr Morimoto's conference session and this book has been very helpful for I pre-stage the Asia-Pacific operations in anticipation of our migration. The book is fairly good and useful not only to parent headquarter, but for branch office and regional office migrations. I hope the book will be translated to Japanese so I can share this information with other companies here.

Summary: Great Job!
Review: I bought this book after watching a Webcast where the book was repeatedly referenced. Glad I got it, lots of defailts that weren't covered in the Webcast and I probably would have tried some of the things on my own and have failed. The book stepped me through the migration process to a point where I understand what is going on. This is a GREAT book, I highly recommend it for any company migrating to Windows 2003!

Summary: Excellent Information on DNS and GC/DC Placement!
Review: I glanced at a friend's copy of this book and since I'm on the Microsoft Windows Server Development team, I was very interested in the content and handling of the materials on DNS as well as global catalog and domain controller placement recommendations. I found the information to be accurate and the recommendations for a real world implementation to be very helpful! I ended up buying a copy of the book as my friend took back his copy. Only complaint I have is that the book is over 1-1/2 inches thick. Not the easiest thing to carry around, but it does cover a LOT of information in depth! Very well written!

Summary: covering almost all topics and clear explanations
Review: I have read the book and covering almost all subjects.Explanations are very clear and all process and examples are given step by step.To tell more clearly ,especially for active directory domains,the writers used understandable graphics and writtens.Oftenly the differences between win2000 and win2003 are given as trips.
You can process examples on your pc without any problems because it seems that all examples were already tested.
If you are learning windows2003 by himself,it is very useful to you.
