The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Lan Survival: A Guerilla Guide to Netware':
Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
The authors have wisely limited the audience for this book. It is an
installation and management guide for those who, having no input to the design
or purchase of a LAN, are put in charge of a Novell shop. At this level, the
book succeeds as a reasonable and logical guide to setup.
After a few short chapters on general networking concepts, the book directs you
to file servers, workstations, printers, applications, backup and security. A
second section covers cabling and access methods briefly. This makes sense in
light of the audience of those who have "inherited" a system. Some monitoring
and troubleshooting tips end the book.
Although there are no surprises for those familiar with the Novell
documentation, the organization is appropriate for a computer literate newcomer
to the LAN world. Do note that this is a quickstart and survival guide. It is
*not* a guide for LAN construction.
