Look folks I hate taking test, whats it prove. It proves you can study thats it. It has been my experience that situations happen that are not on the test. But the nice thing abou the cert is that you know your s*!@ and that is what set you apart from the rest.

to some it up a qoute from Nike "Just do it!"
and a quote for Larry "Gitr Done".

Work on the system you want to cert in. Right Know I am on Ubunt/Kubunt, Due to my course is going to be Linux+. I just took the eval that was posted eariler in the thread and scored a whopping 21, i need work.

Good luck to all who attempt.

business/linux

Dear Acid,
further to previous comments, how do you justify building a business on the back of open source material and then guard it jealously because you paid for that knowledge to start with. This is not in the spirit it was intended. It is fair that people can make money from their skills but it is not so to make it so expensive that it becomes like an exclusive club.

Fred.

@Fred_Caro, there is a RHCE prep guide that may help you:

http://www.redhat.com/certification/rhce/prep_guide/

Learn all the items there thoroughly.

All RHCE exam takers sign a non-disclosure agreement that states they can lose their cert and be sued into infinity if they blab about the test.

Sweet, thanks for all the valid email addresses to add to my SPAM mailing list..
Seriously though I wouldn't post my email address here, in the clear. a PM would have been a better idea..

This question would have been better suited in the Certification Forum. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...tification-46/ where you might already find links to resources you can use..

Best of luck in your endeavours.

There are other valid certification options for Linux that are not as Expensive as Redhat.. Such as LPIC and SUSE

If you have a solid base in Linux knowledge then the specific distro shouldn't be a huge concern for certification.

Quote:
2. How much will it cost to get certified?
Last time we checked (2007) the exam prices (in $US) for these Linux certifications are:

* Linux+ $232 ($186 for CompTIA members)
* LPIC exams: $100 each
* CLP exam: $195
* CLE exam: $195
* RHCT exam: $349
* RHCE exam: $749
* RHCA exams: 5 exams at $749 each (unless purchased in a bundle)
* RHCSS exams: 3 exams at $749 each (unless purchased in a bundle)

The prices above were accurate as of this FAQ's publication date - check with the vendors for up-to-the-minute pricing. Some exams are available internationally at other prices (using the local currency).
RedHat is free to charge however much they want for their exams.. no matter how overpriced it may be.. Just remember they are not the only game in town.

This is just nonsense. I really don't see how to even reply... Open source software is not about being the Magical Man from Happy-Land, in a gumdrop house on Lollipop Lane. There are plenty of very strong moral undercurrents to it, but to say that anything that has ever shared the same room as some open source code has to be given away for no logical reason I can think of it daft.

opensource/acid

Dear Acid,
you struggle to reply so do I but cannot leave it thus. You start to sound like Adam Smith. Education remains the hope of the less well off to drag themselves into a more comfortable life and so when firms limit that knowledge, then it is inexcusable.

Fred.

Erm yeah whatever, I think that's the whole point... you might want to come down to earth next time you think about big businesses doing their thing.

Ahh yet another individual that believes in the Culture of Entitlement, in that case I believe I should be entitled to a Cisco CCIE cert at no cost..

but alas this isn't a political discussion forum so I digress.

please do not drag up dead threads, and posting your email address publicly will just get you spammed.
