Wowoww Thanks everyone for your input. I am an Oracle dba and works mostly on Solaris 10. Currently my senior sys admin wants me to be a junior system admin as well which I work for oil company; lots of seismic environment and they use Linux Redhat enterprise that's standard so I will ask my supervisor to support me on unix/linux education. Company pays so I prefer 1 week off from the work and enhance system admin training on linux during a weekdays. Hope this makes sense.. That's a bit background... I have to search it for a while to get an approval .. it's gonna be going going going till Jan 2007. I keep doing search it as well.. Thanks for your thoughts.
