From the Author
Filled with never-before documented performance information!
In order to write this book, I had to develop a lab in numerous network designs. This book provides analysis results on the NetWare login sequence, NCOPY v. XCOPY, client authentication processes, and burst mode file reads/writes. Of course, I don't mean to scare you off if you're new to analysis... there's a chapter specifically geared to the new analyst. -- Laura Chappell
