I'd buy it, too. But, only if I get to review it. I know joe well enough that I know the difference between uggh, and ugh. I can interpret the grunts fairly accurately. -rtk -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rich Milburn Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2005 8:07 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Active Directory and LDAP Joe - Write.

Don't forget about Alistair. He did that first edition himself and did it well. :) The Cat Book rocks. Actually I should get royalties for that one too, I have made a bunch of people buy it and have bought and given away multiple copies myself. I still have my first copy though it is quite dog-eared and I put laminating plastic on the covers so they wouldn't get too torn up. Here is the actual AD Org Books link - http://www.activedir.org/Books.aspx , actually it would be kind of cool if we could rate them. How about it Tony? Have a couple of fields for each, number of people who have the book, number of people who recommend it, number of people who don't recommend it. I am surprised AD Developers Reference Library by Iseminger is on the list. That is a great book but wouldn't expect a lot of the list users to have read it. I recall reading it back in like 2001 or so and getting a bit scared at what a really pissed off AD programmer could pull off. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Monday, March 07, 2005 11:58 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Active Directory and LDAP Personally? I like to think of AD as a GUI to Microsoft's implementation of LDAP. That simplifies a lot of things for me. However, there is more to it than that and the books you ordered should help in clarifying that. You don't need to know LDAP to make AD work, but it helps. It's a great help to me to understand the differences between Microsoft's AD and Sun's implementation of LDAP or IBM's implementation or any of the others for the basics. When you start getting into managing the directory and the objects in the directory, Microsoft really differentiates itself with GPO's and the multi-master replication and the tools to support the infrastructure. As you're looking at this, remember that name resolution is one of the most important things you can deal with when making AD a solid enterprise app. The book from O'Reilly sounds like Robbie's book. I haven't read it, but have heard good things about it (what can I say Robbie, I don't have a budget for it :) If it's not Robbie's book for AD, then it would be a good idea to grab that one as well. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0596004664/103-8355416-0173405 Sakari Kouti also has written a good book, called, "Inside Active Directory" that would be worth picking up. http://www.kouti.com/ You should be able to find some other information about books at http://www.activedir.org Al -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kenny Mann Sent: Monday, March 07, 2005 11:41 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Active Directory and LDAP I don't understand LDAP and Active Directory as much as I should. So, I've ordered 2 LDAP books (O'Reilly and another) to learn. I'm curious as to how much LDAP and Active Directory have in common. Is AD just a GUI for LDAP? Perhaps there is a book everyone here recommends or will my LDAP books hopefully cover enough so I could be able to feel my way around Active Directory good enough? Doing a search with the word 'book' gives a ton of irrelvent searches in the archives. I saw one book but it's out of print.
