The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Managing Internet Information Services':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
For companies interested in gaining an Internet "presence", most of the current crop of "business on the Internet" books recommend becoming an information provider. None of them are really good at telling you how. Here, then, is the first "all-in-one" compilation of Internet server tools. The book covers everything from simple finger responses, to mail servers, to ftp, to WAIS, to Gopher and World Wide Web servers. "Firewall" security, legal issues and intellectual property are touched on. While technical details predominate, there are practical suggestions for design as well. Unfortunately, this book is not really for managers. The material is demanding and requires a knowledge of UNIX. The authors note this in the preface, and it is fair to say that Internet server management is a technical task. At the same time, it would have been possible to have started with simpler items and more basic explanations. As it stands, the book is more appropriate for either the technical staff in a large company or those involved with setting up a UNIX Internet access provider. Perhaps a companion volume aimed at the more general user would be a future project. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1994
