red hat certified system administrator

bennyineire

Hey peps, I've recently finsihed a Masters in Comp Sci (Conversion) and I'm now trying to get some certs to boost my CV, I'm currently doing Cisco CCNA online. I would also like to get red hat certified system administrator. Does anyone have any links to free tutorials sites or free manuals, all I can seem to find are pay sites and they are quite expensive and I's got no money.
I have a little Linux experience from college by creating profiles and groups etc, any help would be great.

Red Hat will charge you 400 brick to do the exam in Dublin anyway. Material-wise, Google is your friend. Start here: http://ftp.linuxtopia.org/online_books/

Not quite as good but in recent interviews managers had asked about completing the Linux+/LPIC-1 so it's something recognised as a stepping stone.

Red hat admin would be more advanced and a lot more hands on compared to the 101/102 above, which are mostly multi choice as opposed to the RHCSA/RHSCE full sim exams.

Would take years of production environment experience to get a RHEL exam, start with LPIC.
You cant just "learn" to be a sys admin, it takes years of actual hands on experience

good luck

It is recommended to opt certified institution for great source of knowledge. This certification are highly valued and tedious to grab its tag. You can contact any certified administrator for fruitful help.
