The only problem with dividing the Security and Troubleshooting items over exams is that any new exams we publish will feature some sort of feedback on area scores. So I guess they would get two (different) scores on these areas on the two exams.... I guess that's not such a bad thing.
I was going to suggest that we put Web and Mail & News on the 201 exam, and I copied their objectives below, but now I wonder if we should do as Caldera says and put all of File & Service Sharing and Troubleshooting (except 2.214.7) onto 201 and put 2.214.7 on 202. We could then provide feedback on 2.214.7 specifically on the 202 exam. -Alan 206 Mail & News 2.206.1 Configuring mailing lists: Install and maintain mailing lists using majordomo. Monitor majordomo problems by viewing majordomo logs. 2.206.2 Using Sendmail: Candidates should be able to manage a Sendmail configuration including email aliases, mail quotas, and virtual mail domains. This objective includes configuring internal mail relays and monitoring SMTP servers. 2.206.3 Managing Mail Traffic: Candidates should be able to implement client mail management software to filter, sort, and monitor incoming user mail. This objective includes using software such as procmail on both server and client side. 2.206.4 Serving news: Candidates should be able to install and configure news servers using inn. This objective includes customizing and monitoring served newsgroups. 208 Web Services 2.208.1 Implementing a web server: Candidates should be able to install and configure an Apache web server. This objective includes monitoring Apache load and performance, restricting client user access, configuring mod_perl and PHP support, and setting up client user authentication. Also included is configuring Apache server options such as maximum requests, minimum and maximim servers, and clients. 2.208.2 Maintaining a web server: Candidates should be able to configure Apache to use virtual hosts for websites without dedicated IP addresses. This objective also includes creating an SSL certification for Apache and defining SSL definitions in configuration files using OpenSSL. Also included is customizing file access by implementing redirect statements in Apache's configuration files. 2.208.3 Implementing a proxy server: Candidates should be able to install and configure a proxy server using Squid. This objective includes implementing access policies, setting up authentication, and utilizing memory usage. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David A.
