Novell info, at a price
This book offers a tremendous amount of helpful content. However, that content is often blurred by bad attitude and poor writing. Throughout the book, the author makes remarks that can easily be seen as pot-shots at other Novell "experts". This attitude clouds the issues at hand, and in some places completely confuses the reader.

Even worse than the attitude-filled prose are the many typos and poor editing in this book. In some places, these typos and misplaced words completely change the context of the sentence, and the user is left to make up his/her own decision on what was intended.

Buy this book if you must, but don't rely on it as your sole source of info. Novell should take responsibility for technical books sold for its benefit. In the last 10 years, I've read a lot of technical documentation, and this qualifies as one of the top 5 worse books from an easy-of-reading standpoint.
