Very Good Professional Training Guide October 15, 2008
Robert Childs (Guernsey Channel Islands)
A well crafted book that has a logical flow. Interestingly it starts by considering DNS design, which shows just how important DNS is, before moving onto Forest and Domain design, Active directory and group Policy. Much will be familiar to those who work with Windows 2003.
As security is now a major Microsoft focus the exam- and therefore a reoccurring theme throughout the book- considers how to design in security through Network Access Policies, branch deployments, Public Key Infrastructures and data security. The section on security policies and how to set a security baseline is a real call to arms to actually implement rather than just learn to pass an exam.
The major enhancements in Windows 2008 - and obvious exam question choices- Read Only Domain Controllers Terminal Services and Virtualisation- are all well covered here.
All these areas are backed up with scenarios, lesson summaries and practise tests. There are labs to families yourself with the new Windows 2008 features using the accompanying CD.
This is the one book you will need to get you through the 70-647 exam. Enterprise Administration is at the top of the Microsoft tree, and in order to pass such an exam there is a lot of detail in here for the experienced professional that requires to be read thoroughly as a result.
Great book for the IT Pro September 3, 2008

This is a great book that introduces all the new characteristics of the Windows Server 2008, but also great for those who want to prepare for the MCITP 70-647 Exam. You can find topics such as the new DNS System, Terminal Services, networking, virtualization (very hot topic!) and a lot of other hot topics as well.
I liked the "real world" examples given by the authors, and also the test and review questions at the end of each chapter.
Covers all you need to know about the new Windows Server 2008. Highly recommended title.

A very impressing book August 23, 2008
Costanzo Massimiliano (Rome, Italy)
Before I get started I would like you to know that this is NOT a commercial review. I am just an Amazon customer.
After many years using Microsoft books to prepare for my exams, I found this book excellent for many reasons. This is not a training kit for beginners of course. But experienced administrators will see that everything is explained very clearly and the coverage of each subject has been hugely improved in respect of previous books from Microsoft. Make sure you read it cover to cover and read ALL the "Real World" sections written before each chapter. It is True Enterprise Administration reading. Outstanding!
