 COOL BOOK! February 19, 2001

Summed in one sentence: YOU HAVE TO GET THIS BOOK!!! I have bought about 3 other over-priced scripting books, and they are so fluffed with fillers. Briefly: - Covers Windows Script Host, KiXtart, Shell Scripting, AutoIt, ScriptIt, and more. - First book to cover and actually explain WMI and ADSI scripting. - Packed with examples that administrators will use daily! - Great for begginers (both to administrating, Windows 2000, and scripting). - First book I actually read front to back! This book isn't filled with examples like 'writing HELLO WORLD', but with awesome ones like 'Automating installs, updating antivirus files, creating logon scripts'. I am gonna start using them at work and pass them off as my own. To the author: One sentence - YOU ROCK!
AWESOME BOOK! December 8, 2000

I've never seen a book like this! This guy must be an admin because everything here is what I do on a daily basis. Managing user/groups, inventory, imaging, messaging - you name it - its in here. And since my job is forcing Windows 2000 down my throat, its great that this book covers Windows 9x/ME/NT and 2000!!!Also whats the other cool part is that I just bought it for Windows Scripting Host and know I can learn Kixstart and shell scripting all in the same shot! Definately worth it!
Great Reference December 23, 2001

3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is a great reference. Everything is right here, and you can easily modify or combine the scripts to perform the tasks needed to get done.If you've ever bought a "little black book", you'll be comfortable with this book. This book is a concise refence and is intended for intermediate to advance admins/programmers/computer geeks (which explains the winers here who can't write batch files). It dives right into the task at hand, and shows you the results. Definate buy. If you want the baby steps of scripting, this is not the book for you - but if you don't need someone to hold your hand and want to perform awesome scripting tasks, then I recommend this for you. Two thumbs up!
Dr. Automation's guide to scripting December 6, 2000
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
For all of us who have to gather commands and keystrokes, and do them again some time, this is the book to get. Logically organized and presented, this book will give you the starting point for just about any automated scripting task you have to take on. Get it as a reference book to look up how to do specific scripting tasks, or just browse through it, and you're bound to come across something that you had never even considered automating.
