tekkie said:I cant see how you can even compare a red hat engineer to a CCIE, I think thats a little absurd. Its really nothing more than having a glorified MCSE. Yes the test is practical but if you know your s*** a practical test will be easier anyday than a written one. Or at least for me it would be, I am not someone that reads something and just absorbs itI would say the RH is more valuable than MCSE, duhh since everyone and their brother has it and their exams are just pretty much simple, or it could be because I know the s*** I guess I dunno

I just scored another 36/48 on the Sys Admin Questionaire.
Then I got a 31/48 on the Network and Security Questionaire. My short-comings were DNS/BIND and NIS...two services I have never configured myself.
LinuxRacr said:This is what did me in. NIS. Who uses that anymore?
tekkie said:correct me if I am wrong but pretty much every place that uses alot of Unix stations still use NIS, I know that all of our R&D centers worldwide still use it
is there something to replace it?
sorry I am not the greatest unix reference (dunno)
Dimitrios said:LinuxRacr, ever try firmware from Svea? www.sveasoft.com I have this router as well...
LinuxRacr said:We don't use it...at least not on any of the thousands of servers I help support.
tekkie said:are they using unix workstations?
LinuxRacr said:Nope, servers. In some cases multi-million dollar servers.
LinuxRacr said:Nope. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't they make you pay $20 a year to download from them?
Was it a service pack release of ES4? I know with SuSE if you have for example SuSE SLES 9 SP3 you also need the base SuSE SLES 9 CDs to perform a fresh install. When you boot from SP3 CD1 it will ask for CD 1. What it means is that you have to insert the original CD 1, not the one from the service pack.tekkie said:I was trying to install Red Hat ES 4 from a DVD onto a IBM HS20 blade it would boot up, ask me if I wanted to use gui or text mode, and whichever I choose it would come up after I entered the IP, name etc and say that I needed to insert CD 1??? whats with that I could not find any help anywhere on that issue
