What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

G. Evans Aug 17, 2008

In "Active Directory Disaster Recovery" Author Florian Rommel has created very readable, and usable title devoted to one of the least understood aspects of Microsoft's Active Directory technology. In a familiar and easily readable style, Mr. Rommel presents aspects of a widely used technology that is all to often overlooked even in large companies with competent staff. Full of practical information and solutions to what can sometimes be very esoteric and difficult to understand concepts you will find yourself returning multiple times to this book to refresh your memory before planning for and testing your disaster recovery plans. With active directory digging deeper and deeper everyday into the core of every business and data center, this is the information you need to know in order to assure the long term viability of your infrastructure.

Hier wird ein bunter Mix aus Organisation und Technik rund um die Verfügbarkeit des Active Directory vorgestellt. Dabei kommt die Prävention nicht zu kurz. Egal, ob man BCM erst aufbauen will, seine Prozesse verbessern will oder nur einen Review durchführt, das Buch liefert einen kompakten und kompletten Abriss zum Thema. Einziges Manko: Obwohl im Jahr 2008 veröffentlicht, fehlen die aktuellen AD Technologien.

A good topic for a book, and this one promises a lot, but read it with at least a few grains of salt while you test, test, test. I'm unsure how this book made it past the editorial reviewers, as the prose is often awkward and dense, with many unnecessary words and rarely flows. The often informal and inexact sentence structure loses the reader when the author attempts to describe more complicated concepts.The book's first 100 pages are spent going briefly through AD basics (which leaves something to be desired) and making a case for a business continuity plan for AD. I feel the latter is completely unnecessary. I think it would be safe to assume the reader already knows the importance of a disaster recovery plan if they've bothered reading this book in the first place.There is one glaring conceptual mistake in the book that I cannot let pass concerning sites and services, especially after the author makes statement: "This is the section where a lot of administrators get confused and it is also the section that, if poorly implemented, can cause extremely high network traffic generated by excessive replication."Unfortunately the author seems to be one of these administrators as he writes on page 86 about setting site replication schedules that:"The schedule per site actually only allows you to specify how many times per hour and during which window the replications can occur from the site. This does not affect the intra-site replications, which is the replication between the DCs located in the same site."The section continues with screen shots and text describing how the NTDS Site Settings object under each site affects the way intersite replication takes place. This is completely wrong, as described by Microsoft ([...]"Intrasite connections inherit a default schedule from the schedule attribute of the NTDS Site Settings object. By default, this schedule is always available and has an interval of one hour."By default, intrasite replication happens whenever there are changes, or if there haven't been any in a period of an hour, it will replicate once anyway. Intrasite replication is what the schedule on the NTDS Site Settings object controls.
