MCSE/MCSA Implementing and Administering Security in a Windows 2000 Network: Study Guide and DVD Training System (Exam 70-214)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent book - passed the first time
Review: This was the only 214 study guide available at the time I started my studies. Though I normally use Sybex/Exam Cram guides, I opted to give Syngress a try.

I found this book to be highly readable and that it provided excellent coverage of the exam objectives. Though I experimented with various security settings on a 2000 server and spent some hours reading related TechNet articles, this book served as the foundation of my 214 studies.

I agree with all of previous reviewers about the excellence of this book.

Summary: The Right Foundation, The Right Answers
Review: Too few certification books today provide the firm foundation that you need to be successful. They seem to focus on the questions you'll be asked. Although this book did provide direct feedback on what to expect out of the exam it also developed a firm foundation for what you need to know -- whether you take the exam or not.
