Eden:
This will be my last communication with you on this mailing list--and
similar ones.
This list is for questions regarding exam development at LPI. I think
some of your questions can be dealt with simply at i...@lpi.org -- the
whole world doesn't need to know your specific inquiries.
Why not try that specific point of inquiry first--and then bring it back
to this group afterwards?

Just to clarify my previous question. I am LPIC-2 certified and
haven`t took exam 301. Can I still take exam 303 only right now and
avoid 301, then wait for the changes to occur and get automatcally
certified? Is that how it works?
I work with security and don`t want to focus on ldap so much right now.

You will be certified and will not need to pass LPI-303 again for
another 5 years. As per Anselm's comments below, your LPI
certification
will remain "active" for 5 years from the time that you earn it --
whether or not there are new versions of the exams available.
