Product Description
If you work in an office, you probably don’t lose much sleep worrying about whether your files are safe if your PC melts down. Company IT departments handle those things for business networks. But how about all those precious photos, address lists, the family genealogy, and everything else that lives on your home network? Windows Home Server can save the day if one of your personal PCs hiccups, and Windows Home Server For Dummies serves up all the stuff you need to know to put it to work. Forget everything you’ve heard about previous versions of Windows Server; this all-new variation has been designed for people who don’t wear white lab coats or pocket protectors. Woody Leonhard has tested it and it passed with flying colors. If you have a home or small business network, this book shows you how Windows Home Server helps you - Share files among all the PCs in your home
- Access your files from anywhere
- Make regular backups automatically
- Store files securely
- Play music, TV shows, or movies on your Xbox
- Share multimedia across your network
- Keep your virus protection and system upgrades up to date
- Get regular reports on the overall health of your network
Windows Home Server For Dummies provides sage advice on choosing a version of Windows Home Server, installing it, setting up users and passwords, using remote access, scheduling automatic scans and backups, and having fun with multimedia. Trust Woody— you’ll sleep better.

 WHS for Dummies review September 21, 2008
Nice book for someone who wants to get an introduction to Windows Home Server. Full of useful tips and trics, do's and don't-s
The writing style is something you need to get used to. It is very much speaking language. If English is not your native language (like for me), in the first chapters it is pretty annoying, but I got used to it.
 Good book July 3, 2008

Woody's stuff is always great. I don't expect all of the arcane technical matter in any book "for Dummies". This book contains a good mix of information and humor.
Amazon delivered the book before the server arrived, so I actually read the book before I started messing with the server. I didn't have any problems.
Another good Dummies book March 25, 2008

This is good overview material for Windows Home Server. The book is not overly technical, but it does provide a fairly large amount of good information.

This book is excellent for anyone who wants to learn about home server. I read this book prior to purchase a HP MediaSmart Server. It helps me a great deal while I was installing the server. The instructions are precise, accurate and yet humorous. A truly well-written book.
