RHCE

[Kihara Muriithi]

Hi Imran,
 I also intend to take RHEC next month. You can get any book out there
(I have read a couple of *nix related text), but I think its late to
do that now if you intend to take the exam this Feb.
 The way I am going about it is I have Fedora 4 on my laptop. I
visited the link Paul sent you and listed all the topic on my note
book. Since I have used Linux for some times, I was able to tick off a
substantial number of topics.
 Then the topics I am not comfortable with, I read and practice a
topic a day or two. Here is my primary reading guide.
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/sysadmin-guide/index.html
What you find not well covered there, google a bit. Don't get too
crazy though. That is the problem I am having. I tend to be too
bookish and read like mad. Unfortunately, this is a practical exam so
I have to make bash my friend.
 If you want, we can work at it together once in a while. That is one
way of ensuring we don't have holes. The exam is very expensive and I
would hate to fail.
 Have you been on Linux for long?
William
