This book is a result of the efforts of many individuals whose support the authors would like to acknowledge.
The special effort of contributors and technical editors:
Ellen Beck Gardner, a technical author and senior consultant, deserves our thanks for her extra efforts in the development of this book and in the preparation of the appendix and other segments.
James Edelen, MVP for SharePoint Server who resides in Philadelphia, is an acknowledged expert in Microsoft networking and Internet technologies.
James Morris, a systems engineer with the University of Washington, focuses on designing and managing large-scale computing systems based primarily on Microsoft Windows 2000/XP and on developing tools to automate much of a system administrator's tasks.
Rick Kingslan, a consultant and technical trainer in Omaha, Nebraska, is a Microsoft MVP.
A very special thank-you is due to Addison-Wesley editor Stephane Thomas for her support and enthusiasm. We also thank marketing manager Curt Johnson, production coordinators Marilyn Rash and Patrick Cash-Peterson, and the entire Addison-Wesley production team. The day-to-day production details were managed by Diane Freed during the early and late evolution of this book as well as our previous book. Finally, but certainly not the least, copy editor extraordinaire Joan Flaherty stayed with this project for months and did a superior job on every level.
Microsoft was extremely cooperative in the development of the book. Brian Valentine provided an excellent foreword. Other friends at Microsoft who deserve a nod include Doug Miller, Michael Sandoval, Liz Brackett, Teresa Yao, Charles Pritcher, Tracy Edwards Westby, Ryan Calafato, and so many others.
A special acknowledgment also to our associates at Secure Logistix Corporation, including David Parkhill and Anthony Noblett and the folks at Coalfire Systems.
