Windows NT Workstation 4.0 Advanced Technical Reference, w. CD-ROM - encuadernado, tapa blanda

A clear step beyond using the SE Using series, the Advanced Technical Reference addresses the higher end of the Windows NT 4.0 Workstation market that is looking for in-depth, technical information. This is a "must have" resource for accomplished through expert users who want information precisely targeted at their needs., This huge, hardback tome is designed for those responsible for making Windows NT Workstation 4.0 work in a large organization.

Windows NT Workstation 4.0 Advanced Technical Reference excels in the practical details. The discussion of how NT deals with memory--both real and virtual--and how to optimize memory use will prove invaluable to system tuners. Similarly, the authors provide optimization guides for hard disks, CPUs, I/O, and video. Administrators of networked workstations will appreciate this book's deep coverage of TCP/IP, DHCP, WINS, and NetBT. There's also excellent coverage of RAS and the details involved in configuring a computer for dial-up access to a network. Also helpful is the discussion of exactly what goes on during the NT installation routine and how to customize the process. A guide to NT's command-line interface wraps up the book. The companion CD-ROM is stocked with some handy shareware, including the popular WS-FTP FTP client and Remotely Possible/32. Windows NT Workstation 4.0 Advanced Technical Reference belongs on the (reinforced) shelf of everyone responsible for the efficient operation of an organization's Windows NT Workstation 4.0 computers.
