Release Notes<br />
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
If you must keep Windows running for your organization, you've always needed <br />
Microsoft's Windows Resource Kits. They contain too much indispensable <br />
information that's too much trouble to find elsewhere. Today, Vista offers a <br />
boatload of new tools for monitoring, management, and security, so skating along <br />
with your XP documentation isn't an option. But there's another great reason to <br />
buy the Vista Resource Kit: its huge library of scripts for automating Windows <br />
administration.<br />
<br />
A quick look at the table of contents clues you in to this book's breadth; a <br />
quick glance at even a few chapters will convince you of its depth.<br />
<br />
To begin with, security's covered comprehensively, from Windows Defender to <br />
BitLocker, encryption to smartcards. Next, you couldn't ask for more (or better) <br />
deployment coverage: everything from setting objectives to planning pilots to <br />
the nuts-and-bolts of disk imaging, application compatibility, and user state <br />
migration.<br />
<br />
Speaking of which, the authors walk through automating every facet of migration <br />
that can be automated, from Vista installation (distributed shares, Sysprep, <br />
answer files) to application upgrades (via every installer, legacy and new, <br />
Microsoft and third-party).<br />
<br />
Of course, deployment is only the beginning. The Resource Kit offers systematic <br />
guidance on managing Vista desktops via group policies and user profiles <br />
(including Vista's powerful "corporate roaming" enhancements). Disk <br />
partitioning, backup, quotas, performance optimization, devices, services, <br />
networking, remote assistance, printing, troubleshooting: They're all here.<br />
<br />
There's a full chapter on Windows Meeting Space: a powerful new collaboration <br />
tool that raises significant configuration issues. The Kit helps you address <br />
those issues upfront, so users see only the benefits. Vista's revamped file <br />
search feature gets its own chapter. So does Internet Explorer 7, its revamped <br />
policies, and its new defenses against malware and data theft. You get the <br />
point: This book touches every corner of Vista, making your job more doable from <br />
start to finish.<br />
