Review:
For the most part, this is a further edition of "Internet: Mailing Lists" . There is a section of introductory material, and then an annotated "list of lists". The introduction is uneven. The first chapter spends a lot of time on unrelated Internet applications, and at one point appears to confuse Usenet newsgroups with mailing lists. (A different section does provide some distinction.) The exhortation to send administrative messages to the administrative address, rather than the list itself, is very important, but the identification of those addresses is not completely clear. The coverage of administrative commands for the variety of mailing list programs is far better than anything I've seen in any general Internet guide, but the... Rest of this review on the detail page

Book description
How do you secure your IP network without destroying it? The IPsec protocols are the only viable standard for secure, network-layer transmission on IP, yet they can wreak havoc on critical applications and other enhanced network services. Interoperability problems between vendors, as well as limitations in the basic technology, can cause problems that range from annoying to disastrous. This book tells you how IPsec works (or doesn't work) with other technologies, describes how to select products that will meet your needs, and discusses legal issues critical to IPsec deployment. This hands-on guide will help you to: * Analyze how and why IPsec may break existing networks * Combine IPsec with other enhanced IP services and applications * Det...

Review:
Those considering Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) as a way of linking geographically separate installations should check out Implementing Virtual Private Networks. This book takes a close look at VPN suitability and constructing a VPN network and presents various off-the-shelf solutions. VPNs remain poorly understood, so the first order of business is an explanation of what VPNs do and how they do it, with some emphasis on the economic pros and cons of choosing a VPN over other networking solutions. Brown documents several VPN architectures (routers, firewalls, and remote-access arrangements), details Network Address Translation (NAT) and its relationship with Internet routing schemes, and explores security issues. The book covers cryptog... Rest of this review on the detail page

Review:
The title, and particularly the word "access", suggests a book about getting connected, or "onto" the Internet. Maybe a little demystification of dial-up IP. Having reviewed two previous "Essentials" books, I suspected a book on how to connect your LAN to "the big one". A book of either description would be a valuable addition to the Internet library, but such is not to be, at least not yet. The preface states that what distinguishes the book is that (a) it is for beginners, and (b) it doesn't list everything, just the tools for you to find stuff. Sorry, but these are *not* distinctives. You will find the usual material here. History, concepts and background; the applications; miscellaneous stuff; the December, 1993 PDIAL list of ... Rest of this review on the detail page
