Debian Warriors,

        I seem to be having trouble using the debian-user@      address but
can do a reply to all.

        At any rate, LPI certification covers all distributions of Linux.
That is done by retreating to the least common denominator  --- example, to
add a new user within the LPI doctrine use;

useradd

Because all know distributions support the above command.

I am studying for the LPI last exam, #102.  It is interesting to note that
the final test asks questions about rpm and dpkg.  Those two map to Red Hat
and Debain so there are exceptions.

I personally like the LPI idea and run Red Hat 6.2 at home and Debain 2.2.17
at work, and enjoy contrasting the two.

John

IMHO, If you have the knowledge and are doing the certs to impress 
employers do the Red Hat cert. I say this because that is the name 
most of them are going to know. Then get the job and do whatever 
you want to because most of them won't know a Debian box from a 
Red Hat box. At work now I have talked my boss into letting me set 
up a Samba server. He has bought a box set or RH 7 to get 
"support" I'm installing Debian 2.2 even as I write this. Having 
said that the LPI certs are general and (at least they used to) 
have a distro specific part in which you could do Debian.
