Summary: Chapter 5 looks good to me
Comment: I bought this book because I liked the author's beginner's book. Now I'm going to sit for my exam in two weeks, so I'm concerned about the nagtive "anonymous" reviewer from RI. I was worried that maybe Chapter 5 (about packages) contained lots of "unexplained terms". I checked my copy and found tons of "fully explained terms". For example, "pkgchk" is explained as "a command to examine the package properties of a file that's already been installed". That sounds pretty true to me. "pkgino" is used to check all of the packages which have been installed, and so on. I just can't find the unexplained terms, or the "copy/paste job from hell". And how would a Windows 2000 help me pass the Solaris exam anyway Mr. Reviewer from RI???

Summary: Good coverage: suited for beginners->intermediate
Comment: I'm a Solaris 7 certified admin, and I'm thinking of taking the new exam soon. I've picked up this book now and it appears to have one chapter for each of the units in the Sun syllabus, rather than just throwing everything together. Lots of good examples too. There's excellent coverage of tough topics like NIS+, and obscure topics like modems (I mean, don't we all use ethernet these days?). The exam CD-ROM was useful. My only concern is that I can't find any coverage of LDAP (is that in the exam?).
Rating: 4
Summary: Excellent for those with 1-3 years experience
Comment: I bought this book 4 weeks ago and I have steadily worked through all the exercises. I have 3 years experience with SunOS. I found that I could easily answer most of the questions which makes me confident that I'll pass the first exam next week. I'd like more practice exams to be included in a future edition - there are only 400 questions on the CD-ROM. Also, I might be blind, but I couldn't see any Microsoft jokes in this book lanman94...
