choked a bit and couldn't remember all the router configuration commands but queen of partial credit that I am still got six out of seven -- I'll take it. Since all my online tests are in the high nineties and I do well with paper and pencil tests (and have seen networking terms before) I am pretty confident about the final and therefore the class. It might not be an A but I think it will. Knock on wood :)
The skills final was HARD though, you had to calculate a subnet, identify properly made cable of the proper type and hook it all up so that 2 linux and 2 xp boxes talk to the router. All that for a lousy ten points but that's an entire letter grade so... bottom line, the skills final was ok and I lived to tell the tale, but the outcome was in doubt there for a while....next up, skills finals in NOS and red hat on Monday...
