Dear Sir

 

I am going to ask dos_box to ban you since your post about the must have book for systems admins appeared it has reduced my productivity tonight to zero. If only I had started reading it another day, if only Safari hadn't got a online copy. But as it was your post that pointed me to this wonderful book I am going to hold you responsible.

 

Regards

 

Russell.

 

On serious note a very very good book...

Just thought i'd drop a 'hang in there' note to you all, it's worth it in the end. I just took the 5th exam today and am now MCSA:)

18 months, lots of waiting for exams, one exam failure and a very patient wife...

For the record i did 271(MCP)+272(MCDST) followed by 290,291 and 270(MCSA)

Also if it is of any help(i'm sure anyone would agree) the phrasing of the questions tends to cause more problems than the actual content(presuming you've learnt it) Oh, and forgetting how you would REALLY fix things helps a little too...

Keep up the good work all of you

For those taking the exams, a couple of pieces of advice. Firstly read the questions very carefully, even if you don't know the answer you'll often find you can narrow it down to half the possibles simply by looking at the question.Secondly there's a strategy for simulations. To a certain degree they will only let you do things the right way. If you get stuck, simply look at all the options in the simulation and see if it jogs your memory. Once you have the correct route worked out, and the right settings, note those down and reload the simulation. That way you won't accidentally leave any settings which shouldn't have been set.Hope this comes in helpful to someone.
