AFAIK most of the skills learnt in the RHCT deal with repairing a broken installation. (Apart from other networking stuff of course). In fact, that's what the exam consists of - you're given a broken installation and have to fix git (get VI ready!) > BTW, are STC going to be doing a follow up to the RHCT with the > RHCE?? Purely from personal interest, did STC follow up the CCNA > with the NP/DP/SP?? AFAIK RHCT and RHCE are the same course. When you do the exam, you'll get an RHCT if you pass and RHCE if you do really well. Not sure though, better ask Andrew. As for CCNA, I'm in my final weeks and still haven't heard of anything. > It may be of benefit for people here to be guided towards relevant > links and information to understand the differences between Fedora > and RHES as this may have a bearing on their decision to take the > course and exam.

Personally, I don't like the idea of having a four day course. You have to rush through tons of material and it will be a very stressful experience. I wonder how much of the course one will remember a few days after the exam... Nevertheless, for people in the industry it's very important and respected. IMHO, knowing how to fix RHES also means knowing how to fix Fedora and to a certain extent other distros. > It is, IMO, commendable that STC are providing Linux training.

In fact, I'm quite sure the NCC courses they offer would be far more expensive if the government wasn't involved. > > Regs. > > Iain. > > PS.
