Reviews Amazon.com Windows NT's user-management tools can prove confusing, but this guide does a good job of explaining them. Taking a sort of God-and-humankind approach to the relationship between system administrators and users (an appropriate analogy), authors Meggitt and Ritchey first describe the basic formula that you can use to get users up and running under Windows NT. They then chronicle the customization tools available to administrators, detailing the philosophies and procedures involved in making groups, dealing out permissions, establishing domains, and creating trusts. They also tell how to keep an eye on users, providing a good analysis of the contents and formats of the various log files. The authors explain how to use the command shell to accomplish important administration tasks--an important thing to understand, since it's much easier, for instance, to automate the creation of many accounts that way. Further, they show how to use Perl's string-manipulation power to administer systems, performing such tasks as altering the Registry and editing profiles. This book is quite Perl-heavy--you'll probably want some familiarity with the language before you attempt to analyze or modify the authors' instructions. --David Wall Synopsis
