Hey Chadley, If you don't mind a couple of questions, general ones of course not to get too specific about the test as I would never want to do that. I have been preparing for this for a while now, but I am scared of wasting a lot of money and not being ready despite several years' experience working with Red Hat starting with v.7. Been through a zillion network based installs, lots of LUG activity, lots of tinkering on my own as well as on the job etc. Went through one of the prep books - both the old one as well as the updated one for RHEL3. 1. How does one gauge whether one is up to speed, as far as time goes? IOW, there are problems many people can solve, but solve in a super-quick manner is another story. That kind of thing is tough to measure, but critical for an exam, especially a costly one. 2. How many permanently set up boxes do most people use to prepare? Obviously more than just one but would two work ? THat has been a big holdback for me due to cost; ideally I would like to have quite a few. 3. Would it be worth it to wait for RHEL4 to come out and take the course and exam then? Since the majority of things are found within Fedora that aspect doesn't seem to make much differrence, but maybe I am overlooking something? All help is greatly appreciated.
