Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) course

This is for notes during my study to become a Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE).

I'm going through the Red Hat Certified Systems Administrator (RHCSA) material first, but it's rather disappointingly not much of a learning experience. I suppose that could be seen as a good thing, as it means I know a fair bit more then I expected. Or, it means a RHCSA certificate isn't as valuable as I initially thought...

Some simple things learned:

cd -

change directory back to prior one

That's handy! But I hardly expected "How to use ls and cd and mkdir and rm" as part of a certification program. Just too basic.

Here's another one:

changes to anotherUserName's home folder. I'd normally have done

Handy yes, but I'm rather tired of going through pages of docs for such tiny nuggets of new material.

Also - LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) client configuration is on the curriculum. Unfortunately, the material only touches on setting up as a client; I need to know how to set up a server to a) ensure the client is properly and completely understood, and b) "because it's there". i.e. it's an extremely useful tool, hence I want to know both sides of the client / server setup.
