The Solaris PC NetLink Blueprint is quickly becoming the bible by which system administrators and system planners are obtaining the vital information they need to plan and implement an enterprise-capable PC NetLink Software system. Solaris PC NetLink Software is the latest offering from Sun to enable Sun servers to support PC Client services. Solaris servers, with PC NetLink Software installed, not only support both the file and print services that are common to all Microsoft PC operating systems, but also allow Sun Workgroup and Enterprise servers to be fully integrated into NT Domains as a Primary, or Backup Domain Controller (PDC, BDC). In addition, PC NetLink Software offers the benefit of allowing NT system administrators to manage PC NetLink Software systems using the same tools they already use to set up and maintain NT servers. The purpose of this book is to supply system planners and system administrators the information that allows them to install, tune, and use their PC NetLink Software to its maximum functionality and performance. Server sizing information is supplied for system planners to scale their PC NetLink Software to their own PC Client environment.

Don Devitt has been on the development teams of almost every software and hardware PC interoperability product Sun Microsystems has produced over the last 13 years. Don is currently a PC Interoperability specialist within the Enterprise Engineering group and is a member of the PC NetLink Server engineering team where he has focused on performance-related issues. Don started his career as an electrical engineer and has worked in the Automated Test industry (Teradyne Inc.) and PC operating system market (Digital Research from CP/M fame) before coming to Sun.
