Those week-long seminars where you get an instructor equipped with overhead slides for 4 days and then on Friday you take the exam - the best thing about them is that they get you out of work for a week. Your time would be better spent studying at home 9am-4pm and pocketing the $2,500. Unfortunately a boss probably wouldn't agree with this idea. The best thing to do for the RHCE/RHCT exam is to get a PC and do everything that will be on the test. i.e. install fedora core w/RAID and then configure every service you can think of. mail, ftp, http, dns, dhcp, firewall, ssh, nfs, nis, samba. When I took the test a grade of A = RHCE, a grade of B = RHCT, or else you fail and pay $750 to take it again. If you fail it, immediately find a paper and pen and write down the test questions, and make sure you know the answers to those questions when you go to take it the 2nd time. The questions will not change much if at all. -Bill > mdecheser@comcast.net wrote: >> I would imagine that the RHE133 track would prove to be a more robust >> and portable certification to obtain from Red Hat, and while I am a fast >> learner, I want to ensure that I pursue a certification track that both >> guarantees success as well as portability/longevity for a Systems >> Administrator. >> > I'm not sure what you mean here - The RHCT is a pretty basic cert that > you can get if you fail the RHCE exam (first half of the RHCE is > actually the RHCT test).
