This is a great book which covers top to bottom of Novell's flag ship product ZENworks for Desktops. Administrators will get most of it from this book and even for starters it gives good introduction about the product. Thanks to Orielly for publishing this book.

Media reviews "This book will take you through the pitfalls and, through examples, explains the key concepts and rationales. Like the other books by O'Reilly it is well written in a technical idiom, but using plain English to explain complex issues. Their books become trusted companions, often containing the elusive parameter or explanation of an obscrue part of the program or process. It is for that very reason that many computer professionals choose O'Reilly books for both their own use and the technical library." --Mark Brett, NUAnces, Dce 2000
