As I understand it, right now the most important things are the Objectives. We can revisit the labs-based testing in a revision later on -- depending on popularity. I don't think people realize the cost involved with hands-on -- especially if so few go for it. Let's _shelve_ this discussion until 2007+, _after_ LPIC-3 is out. > I was talking samba/ldap for the first two LPIC-3 exams (Samba and LDAP exam). Okay, my apologies there. But let's step back again. Samba is for Windows clients. NFS is also a _crucial_ consideration for _enterprises_ too. We're not just talking about Linux as a server and Windows as a client, but native UNIX/Linux file services too. NFS is one of the most under-dissected details, with most people only using legacy "sys" authentication. Especially with the new user-space support for kernel 2.6 NFSv3/v4 -- in addition to services Red Hat (among others) have offered for 2.4 as well. > I'm looking at it now.

I detailed my suggestion to use the 7 domains of the ISC2's SSCP back in January 2004: http://list.lpi.org/pipermail/lpi-discuss/2004-January/001064.html 1. Access Controls 2. Administration 3. Auditing and Monitoring 4. Risk, Response and Recovery 5. Crytography 6. Data Communications 7. Malicious Code/Maleware Now I understand SELinux is a _major_ driver in LPI Japan. We can't go overboard, but it needs to have a good focus. > BS> I say we pick the 3 "most wanted" domains for the initial LPIC-3, > BS> and go from there (adding options later).

Now I need to hit the site and look at the Objectives development thus far. -- Bryan J.
