WINDOWS SERVER 2003 BIBLE R2 & SPI Ed. by Jeffrey R Shapiro,Jim Boyce Pdf

Market_Desc: · Windows Server Administrators, SQL Server DBAs, Network Admins, Systems Architects and Windows Server Line-Of-Business administrators - any user who needs to deploy, install, and configure installations, as well as upgrade systems to SP1· Individuals who are new to Windows Server technology, Windows XP, and/or networking technology Special Features: · Security - Key Focus of New Edition - Due to major security holes with Windows Server 2003, Microsoft developed service pack 1 (SP1) to provide strong server security.· Security now, not later - System administrators can't wait until the next Windows Server release ( Longhorn coming in 2007, after the Longhorn desktop release) to make their systems secure, they need this book and SP1 now in order to learn the new tools and techniques to properly maintain a more secure system.· New coverage -Additional new coverage on Group Policy Management, Change Control, Service Level, and Administration Practices all helps administrators in medium to large business settings manage users and servers more securely and efficiently. Proven Market - Windows Server books continue to be hot sellers as proven by the Sybex Mastering book and several Microsoft Press titles. About The Book: The 2nd Edition of Windows Server 2003 Bible offers new coverage on the addition of Service Pack 1 (SP1) to the Operating System. In the past service packs catering to bug fixes, obscure security fixes, and code updates, were not the driving forces behind new editions of the Server Bible, however, critical changes to the operating system with respect to security, configuration, change and update management have necessitated the publication of a 2nd edition to cater to Service Pack 1. These updates include many significant changes in how Windows Server 2003 is installed, configured, and released to production.In addition, since its release in 2003, security threats to the operating system have increased by an order of magnitude. So bad were the attacks coming at this OS that installing a new server had to be done on a sealed network with a specialized system of patching the server with security updates before the released server could be exposed to the corporate network. Servers were coming under attack and were vulnerable as soon as they were released to production. The service pack provides an entirely new layer of security to the operating system. You can now install an operating system and keep it protected automatically on the open corporate network while it receives new updates from Microsoft to secure it. This and the new Windows Update Service are the key focus of the 2nd edition. The new security features of the operating system make this a critical 2nd edition that will keep this title competitive.

Windows Server 2008 Bible by Jeffrey R. Shapiro Pdf

This version of the Server Bible will be the largest yet, catering to what is certainly the most advanced operating system introduced by Microsoft. The book will cater to the needs of the server administration community and will be designed to be a critical reference. The book will extensively cover the most notable new feature of Windows Server known as the "Server Core." Server Core is a significantly scaled-back installation where no graphical shell (explorer.exe) is installed, and all configuration and maintenance is done entirely through the command-line windows, or by connecting to the machine remotely using Microsoft Management Console. Server Core will also not include the .NET Framework, Internet Explorer or many other features not related to core server features. A Server Core machine can be configured for four basic roles: Domain controller, DNS Server, DHCP Server, and file server. Chapters on setup and installation will also cover the new componentized operating system Image-based setup and deployment tools, using WIM. In addition to the already extensive Active Directory support this book will now fully cover the "Read-Only Domain Controller" operation mode in Active Directory, intended for use in branch office scenarios where a domain controller may reside in a low physical security environment, was introduced in Windows Server 2003 R2 and will be extended in the 2008 version. Chapters covering policy-based networking, branch management and enhanced end user collaboration will be extended. Windows Server 2008 will also ship Internet Information Services 7 and the current chapters on IIS will thus be extended. Coverage of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 will also be introduced into this part of the book. We will also include coverage of the improved hot patching technology, which is a feature that allows non-kernel patches to occur without the need for a reboot. A significantly upgraded Terminal Services component, supporting RDP 6.0. will be covered in the chapter on terminal services. The most notable improvement is the ability to share a single application over a Remote Desktop connection, instead of the entire desktop. This will be added to an already extended chapter on this remote access technology. In addition to these new features the book will also carry over existing features brought over from (SP1/R2) of Server 2003. These include covering of new security features of the operating system, Group Policy management, change control and service level, and administration practices.
