About this title

Review:

Looking for a quick brushup on IIS 4? The MCSE IIS 4 Exam Cram is a terrific study aid. Part of the publisher's Exam Cram series of concise certification books, MCSE IIS 4 is a speedy read and a nice companion to more detailed classroom- or text-based study. This guide is mostly explanatory and explores the various features of IIS but with only limited hands-on exercises.

Unlike many of the certification tutorials targeted at the 70-087 IIS 4 exam, this one strays from the outline of the test itself to provide its own order of topics. However, the order makes sense: the text begins with an overview of the certification process and the IIS product and then progresses through increasingly more sophisticated topics. Bulleted lists identify the terms and techniques you'll need to get a handle on in each section. The meat of the book consists mainly of explanatory text and accompanying screen shots or code snippets. At the end of each chapter, a series of questions (accompanied by explanations) tests your knowledge.

This book isn't the only reference you'll need to prepare for the exam; however, the references to further reading and electronic sources will help round out your study efforts. This guide is great for those familiar with IIS who simply need to revisit key areas. --Stephen W. Plain
