Reader Reviews
While this book is called the SBS 2003 R2 companion book, and is indeed a companion to the R2 product, even if you don't have R2, but merely SBS 2003 SP1, this is an excellent resource and should actually be purchased instead of the original SBS companion book. The "must have" features for non R2 owners include the chapters on setting up secure wireless and the ISA content. The "must have" stuff for R2 era owners obviously include the WSUS information. If you are a SBSCer.. there are three must have books: This one, the SBS unleashed and the SBS Advanced Best practices. All three are the "holy trinty" of SBS technical books. Don't install a SBS box without 'em. Each of them are also unique enough to give fresh insight, so don't think just because you have one, you don't need another. Bottom line, another great book from Charlie Russel and Sharon Crawford, another fantastic resource for the SBS community. (Full disclosure I was a community reviewer on this book and Charlie Russel was extremely gracious in his accepting and incorporation of my feedback. Thank you Charlie for a great resource for the SBS Community) Comment (1) | | (Report this)
