Summary: The devil in the detail
Comment: I'd like to say that this is a good book for the general reader who wants a broad overview of networking protocols.
But nobody buys a book like this for browsing and unfortunately it falls short when it comes to the nitty gritty details that anone working with these protocols needs.
What is the point of providing extra detail if these details prove to be misleading or in some cases even contradictory?
I know this looks like a frothing rant so I guess I need an example:
page 389 in table 16.1 the DHCP Broadcast bit in the flags entry must be set if the client does not have an IP address.
Then for the rest of the chapter all examples show the bit unset.
I know its pedantic but these books are bought for detail like this.
So in conclusion it may look good on the shelf but cannot be trusted for everyday use.

Summary: Great TCP/IP book
Comment: As an Microsoft MVP, Microsoft presented this book to me and I've read it carefully, I found it's a great book of TCP/IP protocols in Windows Server 2003. If you want to be a professional of Windows Server 2003 TCP/IP protocols and services, buy and read this book, it's great really.
