Type Sair in google search or go to Ed's site for more info.
What PCC courses did you take? I took cis240L and cis279N.
What would be really cool is a class on how to get certified.
I have a book on this, but it's too old. I've been offered a
job at Sprint in Virginia. Quite a move, the pay and education
benefit are hard to ignore though. I wish I could do something
here but there don't seem to be any opportunities for someone
interested in computer networking and Linux, especially if you
only have a two year degree and mostly only your own experience
trying to learn informally on limited resources.
At Redhat's site they have information about their certifications,
I think it's probably best to take Redhat's courses if you can
afford it and if they don't teach you enough go ahead then and look
for other free/paid certification materials and programs. Part of
certification is educational, but part of it is getting something that
says your qualified. The best bet probably is to have a company pay for
it even if it means giving them some time after. Your probably getting
certified to earn money anyways.
