preparing to take the RHCE exam and is using our course to support this certification. 
The third group is Linux expert/power users who want to learn the nuts and bolts of

Im basicly wanting to start looking for Linux admin type jobs, just basic sort of 
stuff, but something to get me out of the job hole im in at the mo :)

Anyone ever done these types of corses, or anyone any recomendations for which one to 
choose, or do i just go for both?

Ive done basic linux stuff now for a few years, ive installed quite a few linux 
servers, both web and samba based, but have upuntil now always used redhat type 
distros, more a case of throw the cds in, and setup samba/apache/postfix after its 
installed!


Thanks

Matt Lowe
