    • Good Book - Just beware
    • Great Book for RHEL version 3 of the test. Currently exam focuses on RHEL 4. This is a significant change in email services and other services which could hinder the test taker.

    • Do not waste your money on this worthless book.

    • This a physically large book with lots of stuff in it. I found it difficult to find the information that I needed. The info about the administrator account did not work on my Vista Home Premium.
