| Summary |
If you're like most network administrators, you probably have several networking "islands": a TCP/IP-based networks of UNIX systems (possibly connected to the Internet), 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 into a TCP/IP-based internet is less threatening than it seems, and it gives you a much more flexible and extensible network. Craig Hunt, author of TCP/IP Network Administration, tells you how to build a maintainable network that includes your PCs. This book gives you practical information as well as detailed instructions for attaching PCs to a TCP/IP network. It discusses the challenges you'll face and offers advice on planning and managing a network. Basic TCP/IP configuration information for the most popular PC operating systems is included, as well as configuration of specific applications such as email, remote printing, and file sharing. Novell's NetWare, the most popular PC LAN software, is covered in Chapter 11. Installation of public domain TCP/IP software for the PC is described in Appendix E |
