Windows NT Workstation Configuration and Maintenance.pdf

Another free ebook from Oreilly books publisher.

The aim of this book is to describe a selection of tools and techniques that can be used to script automatic maintenance and configuration tasks. Starting with simple activities and moving to the more complex, author demonstrates how a tiny script running automatically on each workstation can load more substantial scripts from a network server, which in turn can be used to carry out virtually any administration task that you can think of. There are literally thousands of administration tasks that could be automated by scripting. Although author tries to give useful examples of some of them, the emphasis of this book is not so much to suggest maintenance and configuration tasks that can be automated; to a large extent.

Using Samba, 2nd Edition

Another free ebook from OReilly books publisher, ebook on Using Samba. Samba is an extremely useful networking tool for anyone who has both Windows and Unix systems on his network. Running on a Unix system, it allows Windows to share files and printers on the Unix host, and it also allows Unix users to access resources shared by Windows systems.

Although it might seem natural to use a Windows server to serve files and printers to a network containing Windows clients, there are good reasons for preferring a Samba server for this duty. Samba is reliable software that runs on reliable Unix operating systems, resulting in fewer problems and a low cost of maintenance. Samba also offers better performance under heavy loads, outperforming Windows 2000 Server by a factor of 2 to 1 on identical PC hardware, according to published third-party benchmarks. When common, inexpensive PC hardware fails to meet the demands of a huge client load, the Samba server can easily be moved to a proprietary "big iron" Unix mainframe, which can outperform Windows running on a PC many times. If all that weren't enough, Samba has a very nice cost advantage: it's free. Not only is the software itself freely available, but also no client licenses are required, and it runs on high-quality, free operating systems such as Linux and FreeBSD.
