Windows Administration at the Command Line describes the complete set of command-line utilities that comes with Windows systems. With these utilities a user can perform admin tasks quickly and efficiently, such as automating many time-consuming management procedures and achieving superior results when compared to comparable GUI-based utilities. This book covers all the utilities in Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000. Windows Administration at the Command Line includes value-added information on third-party utilities and scripting techniques, and a preview of Windows Vista utilities. It is organized by task and includes an index of all the utilities by name for easy reference. This book is the first of a series devoted to intermediate and advanced instruction for network administrators. The books will have two special features: A chapter element called "Real World Scenario" to illustrate techniques and procedures and anchor the text in practical applications, and a collection of ready-to-use scripts with directions for implementing them in network systems.
