Somethings I only do when they are broken, as well, some things I
don't even know what they are or how to fix them until they are
broken, then at that point i research how to fix them.

I find that 80% of a good admin is someone that can figure stuff out,
a guru is someone that just knows.


That's nice input Jeff. . .

We all have our general conceptions about the ultimate 'product', and one recurring theme in my mind is that the exam taker should have access to the man pages. . . as *that* is how the vast majority of sysadmins do things out of their routine and beyond their knowledge. And clearly, knowing how to use the man pages is fundamental to being a sysadmin.
