Study material: RHCSS
 
Dear all:
Does any one have any notes or slides of EX423 Enterprise Directory Services and Authentication? Book softcopy will be ideal and highly appreciated. Also if anyone can provide complete RHCSS material it will be highly motivating.

acid_kewpie 08-12-2009 06:58 AM

Anyone attending this course is contractually obliged not to pass this data out, so no, you will not get it from here. You have a course syllabus and an exam guide on redhat.com. it's fair and accurate. As long as you follow it, and study those areas you'll be fine i'm sure.

Why do people keep trying to "cheat" their way? It just makes the cert that much less valuable...

I think a lot of it maybe comes from a certain attitude within the subcontinent. I wouldn't dream of hypothesising any further but there certainly seems to be something about Indian people in general that seems to value certification collection more than the skill sets, jobs and remuneration it is intended to lead to.

I've noticed the same thing...even in the Red Hat Cert forums...

I wonder what it is? It seems that the "paper" is worth more than the knowledge it takes to get there.

sabir mustafa was not asking for dump. he was asking for study materials and he would study hard with those materials. as per RedHat we've to enroll the courses b4 seating on RHCSS, which is too expensive for us (subcontinent pplz). i guess u dont think RHCSS is only for the money pit like u ... we should appreciate self study attitude with the help of study materials rather then having few hours courses spending thousands of dollars.

i expect everyone to be a bit sensible before shitting to subcontinent .

RHCSS Training
 
At last i have found the local RHCSS training provider in Pakistan. My classes has started and i have recently completed the DNS security and GPG key topics.
Since this site is for help the others regarding LINUX, I will try to help any one regarding the problems that may arise during the RHCSS or RHCE level deployments in the industry.
I also want to thank 'orko' for the support.

latinmusic74 06-22-2010 11:49 AM

What is a better certification:

Red Hat Certified Datacenter Specialist

or

Red Hat Certified Security Specialist (RHCSS)

Hello kaisar bhaiya!! I am going through the RHS333, RHS423 and RHS429 books but it seems a bit hard to me. How can I get more details of these topics with more and more examples so that can understand better? Is there any supporting documents, guides or suggestion?

Thanks in advance..

You're all from India / Pakistan / Bangladesh. It's only people from the subcontinent who ever ask questions like this. No idea why, but it's true.

orko 06-26-2010 02:33 PM

lol. cause

01. we want to help native guys beyond posting in forums. i've some hard copy materials (books and cd) which helped me to pass RHCSS and i want to share those materials with those who cant effort expensive RedHat Training courses. (don worry, these are not dumps.) if someone from my country ask for help, i'll share these materials.

02. personally i prefer in-depth self-study instead of taking RedHat Training courses by spending thousands of $ . for ur information in subcontinent a family can run for 6 months with the $ Redhat charges for doing one course.

acid_kewpie 06-26-2010 02:47 PM

The point is not to pass exams, it's about proving you understand the product. if you know the products then you'll pass the exams. If you just study to pass an exam out of context, then it's a pretty hollow and meaningless thing to do.

sabir_mustafa 06-27-2010 02:46 AM

Hi all:
I have worked out and tested the secure DNS deployment in the test environment. I am documenting it and share the same with you people in 2 to 3 days.
This is the only way we Pakistani / Indian / Bangladeshi people can help each other.

If you just want to pass the exam...you are ruining the integrity of the exam.

sabir_mustafa 07-20-2010 01:29 AM

While reading the posts, it seem that some of friends become personal to this thread. I had started this topic from information sharing point of view but friends take it to some where else.
One thing that i have learned from RedHat exams is that one can not pass them until having the practical knowledge of the product and that makes RedHat different from others.
Therefore, I think that information sharing is correct but asking for exam help/ dumps (which do not work at all in RedHat exam) is totally wrong which neither me nor anyboy else from subcontinent had ever asked for in this thread.

Acid Kewpie. My dear dear fellow. That is the most gratingly, astoundingly intolerant comment that could possibly be made in response to what appears to be a simple misunderstanding of contractual privity on the part of someone whose jurisdiction is not well served by Red Hat. You could quite simply have stated the fact and let that be. What on earth possessed you to disgorge, I regret to say, your half baked and Daily Mail-esque worldview upon the poor unsuspecting citizenry? I am shocked that you are a moderator, and I am appalled that you are a compatriot.

A Daily Mail reader? I think not. Making observations about certain parts of a population is not inherently racist or even negative at all. You have 3 posts and clearly very little experience of this forum and the types of questions asked. Different people live in different cultures and work in different ways. Are we supposed to ignore the fact that people vary? That's a pretty pathetic way to live. If you feel the need to knee jerk at something simply because of a few keywords, then that's your problem, not mine.

Chris. I didn't mention racism at all as the peoples of the subcontinent do not form a homogeneous race but I think you would have to concede that to deny your irrelevant aside the adjective of 'negative' would rob that word of much of its meaning. I admit I only have '3 posts and very little experience of this forum' and were that the arena of contention I would yield without a fight. My reaction was not knee jerk: you have made several disparaging comments regarding the subcontinent where such a reaction was not necessarily called for. We are all here to discuss Linux related issues (or to observe others discussing them), not to cast generalised aspersions on the geography of artificially aggregated posters. There may be manifold reasons why 'certain parts of a population' may in our opinion be appearing to behave similarly, not least of which may be a misperception on our part. In any event, such analysis is better left to sociologists than system administrators. If I misunderstood what you said and caused you offence, then I apologise and withdraw my remarks. However, your posts are invariably well written and I doubt that you did not mean what you said, and that worries me.

Dear Friends, I am looking for RHCSS material. Kindly do let me know who could be able to provide me soft copy of it. I have already searched on internet ..... Waiting for someone's response asap.......

We can not provide course material for RHCSS, it is copyrighted and against non disclosure agreements to distribute it. Do not ask again.

The job seekers and the students are not to blame.
The education system in India is very poor as compared to the western countries and the corrupt people sitting in higher ranks won't let that improve!

No matter what degree of experience you have, you won't be called to an interview if you can't show your certificates.

ASA asking for the sample papers is concerned, the intention is not cheating. It is a mentality here or I should say a pattern, that in schools and colleges we are often asked by the professors to have a look at the type of questions that have been asked in the previous years exams. On the top of that, there are special books (hard copies) available in the book stores, containing the actual questions asked in previous years (especially w.r.t the 10th and 12 grade exams) and no student would go to the exam without having a glance at them.

and AFA RHCE is concerned, I don't know much about it (the privacy policies and all), and I think the subcontinent people (in this thread) don't know it either, so what they are looking for, is normal from their view point (considering the environment they live in), IMO.

When material is copyrighted then one can use some of the material as educational but to violate copyright out right then that is illegal thus violating laws and LQ Rules. So no matter how the Instructors/Prof may suggest to look at questions then the parties will have to use public material & objectives. Not solicit someone to violate laws or rules.

Try Google for NDA(non disclosure agreement). As members of a active forum the above statement is not valid. This type of query happens all the time.

So to all participants: Do not query for any members to violate laws or LQ Rules.

In my above post, I was no where trying to say that the those kind of query posts are justifiable at LQ. I was merely trying to explain the reasons behind such mentality/attitude of the people of the subcontinent, to the perplexed acid.

I was clarifying the LQ position. No violations allowed no matter what a prof/instructor may lead the students to do or be influenced to do. Copyrights & following the letter of of Law is important for our society.

I come from academia and would never suggest nor support such actions. As a educator we have a thin line that we must follow. Cheating is one thing but outright violation of laws is not acceptable. No excuses!

Yes, and God knows I've paid for that attitude. You've touched a raw nerve with this comment. I don't want to go into my own personal details, and problems, but suffice it to say that in this Godforsaken hellhole of a country, you are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
I don't think you're a racist at all for thinking like this - it's like saying "English people are beer-lovers" - it's ABSOLUTELY TRUE, for any given slice of the English population, so, please, don't anybody call him that.

It's because the HR dept. in any company is made up of CLERKS, who can match the string "RHCE" in "What The Boss Said He Required", to the same in any person's Resume - they probably have no clue what that is.

The British made clerks out of us more than 60 years ago, and we're *still* carrying on that way - if this were not so PATHETIC, it would be laughable.

I'm *NOT* a beer lover, thankyou. Don't be so bigotted. I much prefer Scotch Whiskey, or Cider. True story.

Late entry guys!!!

Well I read in someone's signature and I really liked that and if I remember correctly it was "Linux is dominant. Period. Search search, learn to search"

The point that I want to make here is it does not matter from where you are, knowledge is not copyright protected!!! You can search on the internet and can get whatever damn thing that you are looking for.

Also when you plan to study for a certification don't just look for the study material, search around and look for real world scenarios that you might encounter when you are on job.

I would say this is one of the site where you can find hell lot of real world scenarios which people face and post. You can help them in getting those resolved and in return you will learn something new.

If you want to get the material you can refer Redhat's site and I am sure that they have lot of PDFs which covers the topics that you will encounter during you certification exams.

I personally feel like that everyone of us are pretty grown up and need not to be spoon feed. So search yourself. We are here to help you any topics that you are unable to understand and need help on.

It is not about being racist it is about how one should learn.

Is this forum for Racist purpose or for web war or religious talk....

It is disgusting for all the members instead of carrying on the work on Linux ( Open Source and Knowledge sharing ) You guys are commenting senseless on each other and countries and lifestyle....
Stop behaving childish and be give suggestions.
