I agree with this answer and would like to expand it to say if you are not working or your emplyeerdoes not specify their preference try to find out what the linux emploeers in your area want and target those certifications. You will probably find different companies may have a particular certification they want any where in the world and also some areas will have a strong prefrence for a particular cert. Also look at what each cert reguires and measure it against your skill or interest level; there are too many variables to say that one cert is the best. I have several certifications in the security world that were part of a course I took, while the knowledge behind the cert is good unfortunately the certs are not recognized by employers so they really are of no value. -- Norm
