I have no idea about the LCP, but the "Linux+" thing from CompTIA is a joke, or at least was when I took it (maybe it's improved by now). Even if it has improved, it's still just a multiple choice test, and I don't place much stock in it. RHCE, though, I take seriously, because it has a lab-based portion which you can't really fake or cram for. And hey, this is a Red Hat-related list, so that's probably the most relevant anyway. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
