Customizing and optimizing Windows NT

From the Publisher: You use Windows NT on your machines and in your office, not on a display floor. You want to make the most of Windows NT's tremendous power and features, but need the greater computer skills and networking knowledge Microsoft's new operating system requires. You need to install and employ Windows NT quickly and want it to flexibly conform to your own particular needs. If this is what you want, then Customizing and Optimizing Windows NT is the book for you. Customizing and Optimizing Windows NT is an essential resource for all users, system administrators, and programmers. This book reviews NT's features and operation but focuses on the straight-forward steps by which you can install and run this operating system on your machines. Because it is a secure operating system designed for multiple users and networks, NT won't allow most users to fine-tune its features by tweaking system files as they can in DOS and Windows. This book teaches you how to customize and optimize the system using the tools NT provides. Learn how to efficiently install and customize Windows NT on individual machines; design and implement a custom Windows NT peer-to-peer network; devise effective security procedures and assignments for a network; assess and diagnose individual computer and network performance; manage shared network files and resources; set up and configure NT network accessories such as Mail, Schedule+, and Chat.
