This set of source books is a must have if you are running or planning on running any form of NT Network. "Don't leave home without it". The CD is worth it's weight in Gold ! tools and utilities are excellent.
This book is great for beginners!

With this book I was able to have a step by step understanding of how Microsoft Windows NT works. There is a lot from this book that would save you a lot of time discovering the power of Windowds NT.
The circle is complete

Microsoft can't write an operating system - what makes them think they can write a book or two?
Good but Pricey Intro, Much Better Alternatives 
1998-12-07
As a practicing certified systems engineer in a major corporation with a very large network of NT servers and workstations and a variety of other systems, the only tools I've found useful in the Resource Kits are those involving deployment. Ghost and Ghost Walker, however, have completely replaced them. QUE's MCSE TestPrep Core Exams and other volumes on Windows NT are better written, far more extensible, and better targeted for everyone from the beginning through the professional user.
A must for the NT Admin Pro 
1998-09-14
Has technical details neccessary for fault tollerance/recovery, thick details about architecture, connectivity and lots of great tools on the cd-rom. Complement this with the NT Workstation RK and you'll have good source for studying for NT Admin-Enterprise-TCP/IP test for MCSE. Stuff in here that is not in courseware.
Heavy on generalities, short on reality

Brought to you by the same team that produced the two previous bestselling editions of this kit, the newest version contains the most authoritative information available on Windows NT--direct from the source. This book is written by insiders with intimate knowledge about Microsoft Windows NT version 4--which provides readers with unique insight into the product from its creators.
Good Resource, needs more

For those of you who dont like the fact that the juicy details that were in the 3.5x resource kit arent in the 4.0 resource kit. There is a reason, the 4.0 kit was meant to be a supplement to the 3.5x kit. I could never get Microsoft to publicly admit it though.
Great for management, terrible for techies

This book gives a good overview of IIS4, but if you actually want to know how it works and how to use it to publish your site, forget it. There are no technical details at all, just loads of 'microsoft are the best' brainwashing. I was not impressed. want to know how it works and how to use it to publish your site, forget it.

This book was an excellent start to learning NT 4.0

When I purchased my PC, it was loaded by Gateway 2000 with NT 4.0. The only book they give you is the very small (1/2 thick), manual. This book does not really explain too much except the basics. Well let me tell you moving from Windows 3.11 to NT 4.0, is quite an experience. The resource kit and book (which included a CD with lots of goodies), made the transition much easier. It taught me how to navigate, and to create and use my desktop efficiently. I have now moved into several Que books for further NT training and hopefully certification.
indispensable for NT Server administrators

This is the documentation that Microsoft shouldhave included with every copy of NT Server. Every administrator should have this kit. The tools are userful and the documentation essential.
