The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Intranet Resource Kit':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
Given that almost everyone on the team works for Frontier, and given that a copy of "Intranet Genie Lite" is included with the package, the authors are remarkably restrained in their pushing of Genie as a product. The book does deal generically with the issue of intranet creation, as long as you limit your definition of an intranet to an in-house LAN using Internet applications. That said, while it is a reasonable job, it is not an outstanding one. The flaws in the coverage of viruses jumped out at me, of course. Chapter two stresses the danger of boot sector infectors (which cannot spread over a network), don't mention macro viruses, JavaScript, or ActiveX at all, and recommend two widely sold but poorly performing products (misspelling the name of one). Chapter nine identifies "variants" as a type of virus. The technical quality of other topics is better, but the overall insight provided is nothing to get excited about. In regard to the software provided, while the book covers a broad array of applications, the CD-ROM only gives you a three-machine license set of Web tools for Windows NT. Explanations of email (the "first tool to implement", according to page nine) and other groupware is left as an exercise to the reader. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1997
