 Nice book that explains the basic
Nice book for people needing to know the basic and how it works and where to find things. I keep it next to my advance book. This book well not go in to deeped. but it will get you started and expaines what it for and how it works.
 Little Relevant Info from a programmer's perspective
If you buy a server with Windows 2003 Server R2 pre-installed, there is very little you need to do in order to get it up and running as a web/apps server. As such, the book, while very clear, has joined my legions of forgottable IT books. It's not bad, it's just not filled with enough info to make it a must have. I supposed it allowed me to feel better that I wasn't alone in my configuration.
Server Crash Course
A good way to quickly catch up on Server management. About the only thing missing is Active Directory. Instead of just saying that its too big of a topic to cover, it would be nice to have at least a brief guideline to it.
 Great Introduction Manual
This is a great introduction manual if you have never installed or used Windows Server 2003. I found it very easy to understand and it walked me through each step that would be of concern for a typical user.
Excellent Introduction to Windows 2003 Server
Don Jones deserves applause for clearly covering all the major areas of the vast Windows Server 2003 package in this easy-to-handle book. It steers the middle course between the vast "Mastering " tomes, and the near-useless "Dummies" approach. It lives up to its promise of teaching you what you need to know to start setting up and managing a Windows 2003 server with about 15 hours of investment in reading time.The only thing keeping it from getting a full five stars was that it went a bit too briskly over DNS, where I get the feeling a couple more pages of Jones' on-the-mark advice could have saved me some hours of troubleshooting. On the whole, however, a very useful book.
