With Windows Server 2003 being released in April/2003 and the next release of Windows (codename Longhorn) not due out until 2005 / 2006, this second edition will keep the text viable with new updates to the core Windows 2003 code.

The second edition covers these feature packs along with incorporating reader feedback to make the book an even stronger resource for the IT professional.
