What I do is give my students a brief description of each one. But all my emphasis is put on sections (1), (5) and (8), the most used in system administration tasks. I found that, a hardest thing to teach them is "read before do something", usually when my students broke something or they don't get the expected results, just go to looking for documentation Cheers Hardy _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
