What Customers Say About Windows Home Server Users Guide (Expert's Voice):

A user guide with a lot of details regarding all WHS features and ehancements.Easy to understand, helpfull to discover all WHS options.

By the time you have set up the basic server, which is fairly simple, you will have learned everything in this book.I suppose if you are a real computer newbie, this might have some info for you but then again you probably shouldn't be setting up a server even as simple as WHS.Skip it. This book explains nothing that you can't get by simply reading the help files. There is nothing extra here, and it offers nothing in the way of tweaks, let alone hacks or ways to increase the functionality of the server beyond the basics.

If you are not that familiar with networks and home networking then this is a good resource. A lot of the subject matter seems to be the same as that in the HELP menu. Buying this book used was a better investment over buying it new. After buying this book I was glad that I didn't buy it new. It is a good resource to have when you are building your WHS.

If you still want to buy this book - Buy mine, I am selling it on Amazon for a good price ;-). I don't normally go out of my way to trash a book.This book is nothing but screen shots and step by step instructions on how to configure and use a very straight forward operating system. If you feel comfortable using most Windows operating systems, you DON'T need this book.

Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned pro there is something for you within the books 300+ pages.Starting with what WHS is (just in case you didn't know), Andrew then takes us in detail, through the features of the product including how to install and most importantly the steps you should follow once installation has finished.Andrew also includes a network primer and details on how to build your own Windows home Server as well.Thoroughly recommended and defiantly one of the best WHS books currently on the market. What Andrew has managed to do is write a complete guide of getting the most out of your Windows Home Server. Well as I have said there are currently 6 Windows Home Server (WHS) books on the market and i'v read them all (yikes). So is the User's Guide from author Andrew Edney any good.Yes, Yes and Yes.
