MCSE Training Kit: Microsoft Windows 2000 Server will be popular among the next crop of Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) exam-takers, and Microsoft Press has done a great job of delivering what candidates will need. While considering the published objectives of the Windows 2000 Server certification exam (70-215), the authors present hundreds of operational details about the corporate network operating system. It’s best as a learning aid, but this book packs inenough details to also serve as a reference for after the exam. The basic unit of instruction is the lesson, which consists of a combination of explanatory prose and hands-on lab exercises that collectively take 30 to 60 minutes to absorb. A typical lesson deals with Organizational Units (OUs) in Active Directory. It explains what OUs are, how they benefit you, and the relationships among Active Directory objects in different containers. Precisely delineated procedures show what to do to find a user account in an Active Directory domain and move it to a different OU. Similar coverage, combining academic knowledge with practical experience, goes to everything else in the exam outline. Coverage of remote access is strong, as are the sections on network setup and monitoring. Chapters conclude with review questions in which you explain in your own words how you’d solve specific problems or meet particular requirements.
