Networking Personal Computers with TCP/IP: Building TCP/IP Networks (A nutstell handbook) Book

If you're like most network administrators, you probably have several networking "islands": a TCP/IP-based network of UNIX systems (possibly connected to the Internet), plus a separate NetWare or NetBIOS network for your PCs. Perhaps even separate NetWare and NetBIOS networks in different departments, or at different sites. And you've probably dreaded the task of integrating those networks into one. If that's your situation, you need this book! When done properly, integrating PCs onto a TCP/IP-based Internet is less threatening than it seems; long term, it gives you a much more flexible and extensible network. Craig Hunt, author of the classic TCP/IP Network Administration, tells you how to build a maintainable network that includes your PCs. Don't delay; as Craig points out, if you don't provide a network solution for your PC users, someone else will. Covers:

• DOS, Windows, Windows for Workgroups, Windows NT, Windows 95, and Novell NetWare
• Chameleon (NetManage), PC/TCP (FTP Software), LAN WorkPlace (Novell), Super TCP, and Trumpet
• Basic Network setup and configuration, with special attention given to email, network printing, and file sharing
