You're going to need way more than a book for that exam. What kind of
background do you have with Windows Server 2003 and its services?

I've failed this exam twice and the first two times i read the MS press book
and a thomson prometic. Both had lots of good theory but it wasn't enought.
I'm reading the MS press again but also spending a lot of times with the
labs. There are still some gray area's for me but we shall see in four weeks
time.

I would recommend (LOL coming from someone who hasn't passed it) reading MS
press and doing the labs. Work with DNS as much as you can and understand
the concepts. I could tell you what was on the exams the two times i failed
but i would be breaking NDA's.

Hello Michael,


I have around 18 months on basic W2K3 Sys admin work, I am really interested
in getting some valuable resources together, reviewing the test objectives
and beginning the long road to preparing for this one.

I use as much on the job experience as I can. I am the sort of person that
creeps up on these exams slowly, as I try to understand as much as possible
by real experience before anything further.

I like going over the material and applying what I have learn't to real
world situations and vice versa. I want to try and get the 'better' books &
resources - hopefully someone who has a good grasp of this will advise.

I take the view that I pay for the exam and want to pass 1st time (probably
not this one) certifying what I use and know.

Thanks again
