  • you don' t have to chose between bleeding edge (Fedora) and boring stability (RedHat Servers): both are very similar and it's easy to switch.

Changed lines 19-24 from:

I took it easy and paced myself over a rather long period of time. Passing first the intermediate RHCT (for Technician) certification. The thing that is different and tends to make RedHat certifications difficult is that they do not rely on brute-force knowledge: you need to learn and practice in a real environment for a while. This is really where the difference is made. For someone with a very basic knowledge of Linux, it would take about 6 months of practical experience before being able to attempt the exam. This of course varies a lot depending on your own experience and capabilities and doesn't mean much, I agree.

The Certification Exams are practical only (read no paper, no writting) and take half a day for the RHCT and a full day for the RHCE. They are divided in different sections, such as troubleshooting and Installation/Configuration.
While the basic tasks are simple, you're not allowed to fail them. Then come a large number of smal tasks that touch almost all aspects of the system. you need to be very quick and you've barely got enough time to check your system.

In any case, a Linux system can be quite daunting to approach: it's made of hundred of bits that work together but require you to have a broad and sometimes fairly deep knowledge to truly become productive.

Linux is wonderful for that very task: building plenty of small low-cost servers for what that usually require larger budgets, licensing headaches and a fair dose of flexibility that other systems usually don't offer.

Linux is wonderful for that very task: building plenty of small low-cost servers for what usually requires larger budgets and entails licensing headaches. Plus *nix allows a fair dose of flexibility that other systems usually don't offer unless you purchase the specialized software that someone else's thought you would need.

To make sense of the jungle of options, services, configuration files, issues that every system administrator is faced with, I decided to get a solid background in Linux systems and get a RHCE, the Red Hat Certified Engineer curriculum.

Describe RedHatCertifications here.

to:

I mostly use RedHat derived distributions like Fedora for the simple following reasons:

  • they are not bad in themselves
  • what you know is usefull when supporting commercial RedHat distributions
  • you don' t have to chose between bleeding edge (Fedora) and boring stability (RedHat Servers): both are very similar and it's easy to switch.

Each Linux distribution has its own way of doing things, storing config files or adminitering the system. Differences are only skin-deep though and while it gets a bit of effort to go from one distribution to another, it's usually not dificult.

RedHat is popular in North America and in Asia mostly. SuSE is better known in Europe but is making its way into the US market since it has been bought by Novell.

In any case, a Linux system can be quite daunting to approach: it's made of hundred of bits that work together but require you to have a broad and sometimes fairly deep knowledge to truly become productive.

I'm not talking about setting a simple desktop system and using a GUI to check your emails but rather of using a Linux System in more advanced environments, as servers.

Linux is wonderful for that very task: building plenty of small low-cost servers for what that usually require larger budgets, licensing headaches and a fair dose of flexibility that other systems usually don't offer.

To make sense of the jungle of options, services, configuration files, issues that every system administrator is faced with, I decided to get a solid background in Linux systems and get a RHCE, the Red Hat Certified Engineer curriculum.

I took it easy and paced myself over a raher long period of time. Passing first the intermediate RHCT (for Technician) certification.
