Negative Positive
Title: not a useful first hand reference
Review: after running through the relatively few sms 2 books out there, i have to say that this is not one i'd buy again. 1) there are glaring errors such as incorrectly numbered screen captures which are integral to understanding the material. 2) blatantly conflicting information such as where sms can be installed. the book actually lists sms will only work on a domain controller and pages later only to correctly state that member server is the preferred location. the sms administrator's companion by steve d. kacmarek is better by far. that book provides hard to find tricks such as specifying the nic for use with remote control and well written and organized throughout. this book is fine for a relative knowledgeable sms person who wants to read through the book for a refresher course but for beginners, it will only confuse and misinform which goes against its' purpose in the first place.
Is the review positive or negative?
