Rating:  Summary: Good summary of the product all in one place Review: I thought the book was a good one. There was plenty of information about the Microsoft Index Server. And since there are no other books (that I am aware of) on this subject... its even better. There is information about all areas of Index Server, from what the product is, to how to install it, and things like the registry keys that you can tweak to change performance of Index Server. It discusses how to use Index server on a multi-homed IIS server (although briefly) and describes how to use all the major parts of index server.I think there needed to be more good examples, and then I would give the book a GREAT review. I am looking forward to getting version of book for Index Server 2.0??? Thanks
Rating:  Summary: No real help or insight Review: If your looking for insight or help in setting up or implementing the index server this book offers no help. I was highly disappointed in what this book has to offer.

Rating:  Summary: Factual but lacking in content and overall design concepts Review: Overall, the book contains (and looks like reprints) of details that are available via Microsoft's MSDN library. While this is useful for non-MSDN subscribers, neither source is comprehensive in describing the actual setup, use and practical examples. Actual syntax of commands and functionality is missing - appendices are unclear and effectively describe what the term means - not how it's used nor it's options. This is definitely NOT a step-by-step book. After reading, I found I had more knowledge about the product, but was still unable to effectively set it up. Am still seeking other sources. I do not recommend this book for anyone attempting a functional use.
