Windows NT TCP/IP Network Administrationis a complete guide to setting up and running a TCP/IP network on Windows NT. Windows NT and TCP/IP have long had a close association, and this is the first book to focus exclusively on NT networking with TCP/IP. It starts with the fundamentals--what the protocols do and how they work, how addresses and routing move data through the network, and how to set up your network connection. Beyond that, all the important networking services provided as part of Windows NT-- including IIS, RRAS, DNS, WINS, and DHCP--are presented in detail. This book is the NT administrator's indispensable guide. Contents include: Overview Delivering the data Network services Getting started Installing and configuring NT TCP/IP Using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Using Windows Internet Name Service Using Domain Name Service Configuring Email Service Using Microsoft routing Using Remote Access Service Troubleshooting TCP/IP Network Security Internet Information Server Appendixes on the TCP/IP commands, PPP script language reference, and DNS resource records

Successful enterprise networking with NT is complex at best. Administrators need higher-level information than most books provide. This title contains unparalleled coverage of advanced NT technologies, including server clustering, Citrix WinFrame, and routing on NT Server.

Written by an all-star cast of writers and editors from Windows Magazine, this comprehensive book covers how to design, use and manage the Windows N T's built-in advanced networking functions, including the capability to link non-NT machines to the NT network.

This indispensable guide tells you absolutely everything you need to know to plan, build, manage, troubleshoot, expand, and develop NT-based corporate networks with Windows NT 4.0. If you're a network administrator looking to connect an NT component to a UNIX or NetWare system, someone making that all-important decision between NT Server and NT Workstation, or simply a network manager updating to 4.0, Networking Windows NT 4.0: Workstation and Server is the single resource you need to do it all. You'll find important information on: * Using NT networking; connecting with TCP/IP; and utilizing Internet enterprise and Novell connections * Installing and managing NT Server and Workstation * Administering and interoperating with TCP/IP * Planning and managing NT-based local-area, wide-area, and enterprise wide-area networks * All of the updated features of 4.0, including dynamic DNS support, NetWare redirector, remote-access support, universal modem driver, telephony API, and crypto API. Plus, you'll find an entire chapter devoted to new Internet-related features like IIS (Internet Information Server), 4.0's built-in Web server, and the new peer Web server PPTP, which allows you to use the Internet like a private network.

A revised and updated translation of the French original, this work deals effectively with local area network technologies and management, offering a broad overview of enterprise telecommunication technologies. Also covered is computer telephony integration (CTI) through a presentation of the main technologies of the domain. A functional description of the main features of network operating systems is proposed and illustrated by Novell IntraNetWare and Windows NT examples, with special emphasis offered on business applications and management issues of these topics. The main interest of the book resides in the dual approach of enterprise networks, covering both technical and managerial elements, providing a global understanding of business applications and management of telecommunications to IT professionals and students. Concrete tools and methods are described, thus offering practical advice of immediate relevance.

Here is all the practical, hands-on information you need to build, manage and maintain a heterogeneous computing environment with hardware, software, and network equipment from a number of different vendors. Packed with real-world case studies and proven techniques for integrating disparate platforms, operating systems and servers, Handbook of Heterogeneous Computing is a one-stop, non-nonsense guide that shows you how to: * port and develop applications in a heterogeneous environment * manage desktops, data access, communications, and security in a heterogeneous environment * and build distributed heterogeneous systems What is best for your installation? Should you standardize on the Windows environment for both production applications and office applications? Should you adopt the Windows NT workstation as a standard desktop and use Windows NT as the network operating system? Handbook of Heterogeneous Computing details the advantages and disadvantages of these and other approaches. The book also explains: * the arts of porting and developing applications in a heterogeneous environment using Java, CGI/Perl, and other tools * how to build interfaces with mainframe legacy systems * how to use CORBA to integrate distributed database systems while at the same time managing database gateways and interoperability * how to manage interlan switching, multicast networking structures, SNA-LAN integration, and all aspects of enterprise networks * and how to use Kerberos, firewalls, PGP, RSA public keys, and other tools to assure security in heterogeneous environments. Heterogeneous computing is here to stay. It is therefore up to corporate end-users to make competing products fit into their environments efficiently, effectively and economically. Handbook of Heterogeneous Computing gives you t

Networking is at the heart of corporate computing, and likewise, advanced networking functions are built into NT. This book covers all the aspects of Windows NT Networking, from equipment selection and network planning to client/server computing--all the practical information the network and IT manager needs to know in order to purchase, implement, and manage a corporation.
