This is a programmer's guide to Windows NT, Microsoft's 32-bit operating system. The guide features: down-to-earth instruction on how to create applications for Windows NT networks; details of Windows NT's networking functions, the network programming interfaces and the input/output services available; and a disk which includes a network independent interface for Windows NT that will aid network application development.

Learn to build applications that leverage new Win32 networking capabilities. With this book, Readers will the strengths and weaknesses of Windows 95's new networking features, how to take advantage of Windows 95 capabilities at the client end, and strategies for building successful applications running on Windows and NT networks.

Sinha explains the use of Windows and Windows NT inter-process communication methods to build applications which can communicate with their counterparts over the network. This book explores the challenges that developers face when they are developing network-aware or client/server programs within the Windows and Windows NT operating systems.

Practical explanations are given of Microsoft's networking APIs. This definitive reference covers the network programming interfaces available on the Windows 98, Windows NT/200, and Windows CE platforms. The CD-ROM features reusable code examples in Visual C++.

Mastering cluster technology-the linking of servers-is becoming increasingly important for application and system programmers and network designers, administrators, and managers. With Microsoft's Windows NT cluster server being the first to tie cluster technology with a major operating system, it appears destined to take a leadership position in the industry. Introduction to Microsoft Windows NT Cluster Server provides all you need to know to develop your abilities for this essential technology. The author provides both introductory and advanced material focused on the three basic functions: fault tolerant computing (failover), load balancing, and centralized administration and monitoring. He guides the reader from the basics of cluster servers, through Microsoft's cluster server set-up, communication, programming, and administration. Written for professionals who are familiar with the Windows NT operating system and have programming experience, Introduction to Microsoft Windows NT Cluster Server contains information instrumental in helping you achieve zero downtime.
