Congratulations, I have done the LCA for SAIR and the Level 1 for LPI myself. And yes, nobody care about it careerwise. As for RHCE, you are right, too expensive. But it hold more respect than the others because of its practical exam. I am still thinking about it. Brian M. ----- In Response To ----- well i've finished level 2 --- for personal use it has helped me understand things I would not have taken trouble to learn (such as DNS) if there werent an exam for it. It was good learning experience for me. The good thing about LPI is that it forces you to learn just about everything for a given topic since as you mention there are no study guides at all for level 2 and theres no way to anticipate what type of questions will be asked. For employment use though, nobody is looking for it (yes ive tried). I'm thinking of RHCE too but its expensive. e pike > > I was wondering if anyone has gotten any Linux certifications?
