LAN Administrator Handbook

Here is the first practical, non-technical guide to an important & fast-growing new profession: the Local Area Network Administrator. A Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of personal computers linked together to share data, software & hardware. LANs are proliferating in offices & shops throughout the country, usually coordinated & managed by a harrassed & overworked LAN Administrator who is brand new to a position which has been created out of dire necessity but without any precise definition of what to do & how to do it. This book fills that gap. It provides a comprehensive & easy-to-understand description of the exact responsibilities, daily function, & long-term goals of a LAN Administrator. Drawn from extensive research & interviews with active administrators in a wide range of operations, this book clarifies the creative, human & managerial aspects of being a successful LAN Administrator.Melnick, Ben is the author of 'LAN Administrator Handbook', published 1991 under ISBN 9780962721212 and ISBN 0962721212.
