[Robert Kloosterhuis · Rating 5 out of 5]

This remains still one of the most in-depth and complete collections of material on Windows server. Many of the basic concepts and design of Active Directory, basic TCP/IP technologies, and much more, are discussed in great technical detail, and it remains an extremely valuable reference source for me, even for Windows 2003, and I bet for 2008 also.
I also have the 2003 resource kit, but they cover different aspects of the sever product. I don't know if there is a technical reference from MS on Windows server that equals the ground covers in this kit.
I recently through out many of my 2000' books, but these will remain on the shelf for a long time.
