• Great Concept ....poor Proofreading
24 August, 2001
After reading, and studying the contents of this book, I did notice some glaring mistakes that even a beginner would pick up on. 1. winipcfg command was listed as win1pcfg which is a non existent command! 2. a few of the answers were incorrect as well, including the port for FTP which is 21 is listed as 20. And the mistakes follwed through to the supplementary CD-R. Ron Glister obviously put a lot of work into this book, but it is not worth a hill of beans IF the information contained within its binding is not 100% correct. My thought is that the proofreader of this book should be fired! There is a paragraph in the book that is some kind of stupid disclaimer, stating not to trust the contents of this book, and to use other resources as well for your final training for the test. I agree completly, as that is how I proceeded, and passed the test.

• Not Bad...
08 March, 2005
This book could be a little more in-depth, especially in the HTML department. For myself it was more than adequate since I just needed to brush up on a few minor things before taking the test. If you have your A+ or especially Network+ then this should be more than you'll need to pass. Yes there is an error or two here or there. However, the FTP error that everyone is talking about is technically not an error. Notice that in the table it says port 20 is FTP data transfer, which if you reference iana.org, you'll see is correct. Port 21 is for FTP control. A little misleading perhaps, but not technically incorrect.

• Be Careful
29 May, 2002
I used three different books to study for the exam, and this was easily the least helpful. It was helpful in that it had information that was not in the other two books I used, but it also has some very obvious errors on many topics--information that is just simply wrong. After seeing so many mistakes, I found it hard to see the book as a credible source, and I began to wonder if there were mistakes which I hadn't caught (and which might come back to haunt me on the exam). Make sure that you have other study materials, such as the Exam Prep book.

• Flawed In Places, But Still A Good Reference.
01 August, 2001
There's little point in reiterating the erros in this book that the other reviewers have already pointed out. They are unfortunate, but are few and far between. The book is a good, solid reference for the i-Net+ exam. It tells you what you need to know, and doesn't waste time on irrelevant topics.If you don't know any HTML, you may want to pick up another study guide to get you up to par - the book doesn't have a whole lot on it, but then again I think there were only 3 HTML questions on the real exam I took. I don't think the CD that comes with it is worth much. A more straightforward exam-like tutorial (or a simple Q&A game) would have been much more appropriate. There weren't very many i-Net+ books to choose from when I went shopping, but I still feel like I picked out one of the best ones available at the time.

• A Decent Review Of The Concepts
11 October, 2001
I've avoided the "Dummies" series of books, but -- hey! -- it was on sale, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I began examination preparation feeling that I had the experience needed and was mostly ready, but just needed a little review to brush up. To this end, the book was successful. There were errors, as others have pointed out, but since I came into this not seeking new knowledge, but just to jog the forgotten details, it was entirely acceptable.It was quite readable, as well, and did quite well at not being dry.In a nutshell, a good review, but not so good a "teach-me-how" book.
