Featured Customer Reviews  just the basics,
July 15, 2009 Excellent reference book,

I find that both books by Aric Pedersen "cPanel User Guide and Tutorial" and "Web Host Manager Administration Guide" are of equal value.
I highly recommend these books if you are finding yourself confused.

Very well done,
February 01, 2009 All of the online documentation for WHM is way too basic. This book actually describes everything in detail and in an easy to understand format.
I highly recommend it for anyone using WHM.
Valuable reference for the new to novice WHM user,
December 12, 2006 I was sent a copy of this book to review as a neutral third party
host. I have no relation to the author/publisher or any personal
benefit in reviewing the book.
Just like the author's cPanel book which I also enjoyed, this book was
logically ordered, clear and easy to understand. It also includes
screenshots of virtually every part of WHM you could ever want to see.
As expected, it takes you step by step from the beginning to getting
into advanced WHM functionality. An advantage to this text though is
that it includes the author's own experience (most of which I agreed
with) on what things you should and should not do. If you don't know
yet, WHM allows access to all sorts of settings that aren't always
going to be suitable for all server applications. He does more than
just saying how to do it; he provides explanation on when you should
or shouldn't use something which is great.
If you're a seasoned WHM veteran, you may find a thing here and there
that you weren't familiar with (I did), but I think the most value is
going to be had by those who are new to cPanel/WHM. If you're making
the move towards becoming a Reseller and you're completely new to WHM,
this book is going to save you tons of support tickets and headaches.
A nice addition to your cPanel/WHM library.Good resource for WHM,
October 10, 2006 There really wasn't a book of this kind before this came out. Before if I need Web Host Manager help, I usually had to rely on the documentation that came with cPanel (which isn't great) or had to use the cPanel forums (which are nice, assuming you can find what you need). This book was a very handy guide, and had information on WHM that I didn't know existed (and I've been working with WHM for years). So here's the order I'll be looking for cPanel/WHM information now:
1) This book
2) The forums
3) Then, if all else fails, the documentation
Like any book of this type, it'll be dated when/if cPanel makes a major change, but it'll still be useful beyond that.
