To my patient and lovely wife, Andrea, and children, Ethan and Jaelyn,
who have learned to put up with me, and to my parents, Paul and Gayle,
who fostered my love for computers ever since they were told my
handwriting would never get any better.

Acknowledgments
It took a lot of hard work and patience to complete this book, as it does all publications.
Thanks to Jeff Kellum and Denise Santoro Lincoln for being patient and considerate
despite the scheduling setbacks and for retraining me on the format changes. Also, the
production team of Christine O’Connor and Judy Flynn were top-notch and a joy to work
with. They did an impeccable job making sure we were not just technically sound but also
grammatically correct!
Thanks to Rawlinson Rivera for helping get this book going and for recommending me
for this project. I hope you are feeling better and look forward to our next project! One of
our pinch hitters was Jabez Gan Ming Teik, who really came through by getting a chapter
reworked after a change in objectives on the Microsoft exam.
This book was a bit of a test for me and caused me to have to rely on a number of colleagues for a little help with developing the content. Without Erik Gustafson, Mike Hodson,
and Siegfried Jagott, this book would not have been possible.
Last, I’d like to thank both the Monster Beverage Company and Hearthroast for fueling
the late-night writing sessions with Lo-Carb Monster and home-roasted coffee.

About the Author
Joel Stidley has been working in the IT field for over 12 years and has been a computer
fanatic for much longer. He obtained his first Microsoft certification in 1999 and is currently both an MCSE and MCTS. At the beginning of his IT career, he was supporting
MS-DOS and Windows for Workgroups clients on a Novell NetWare network at a small
manufacturing company. Shortly thereafter, he discovered the joys of Windows NT Server
and led the charge in converting that company from a Novell NetWare directory to a Windows NT domain. He also convinced the company’s engineering department to switch from
the SunOS-based workstations to new Windows NT 4.0 Workstation machines. Joel has
since taken on numerous other projects, from a number of Active Directory and Exchange
Server migrations to deploying large-scale virtualization environments.
In 2004, Joel founded ExchangeExchange.com, a Microsoft Exchange–focused community website where he blogs and provides forums for discussing Exchange, PowerShell,
certification, and general Windows information. In the last few years, he has also contributed to MCITP: Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Messaging Design and Deployment
Study Guide: Exams 70-237 and 70-238 (Sybex, 2008) and was lead author on Professional PowerShell for Exchange Server 2007 SP1 (Wrox, 2008). Currently he is a solutions
architect at Terremark Worldwide Inc. where he works with a variety of directory, storage,
virtualization, and messaging technologies. He currently lives in the Dallas area with his
wife and two children.

an MCSE and an MCSA. The last few years he has spent helping grow an IT consulting
business and setting up an IT outsourcing MSP from the ground up. He recently relocated
to the Dallas area and now works as a solutions architect for Terremark Worldwide Inc.
When not shooting womp rats back home, Erik enjoys drinking piña coladas and getting
caught in the rain.
