But, since the exam is mainly focused on Red Hat and Debian, these are the only two distros that I mentioned. Still, you bring up a good point. That is, would there be enough market demand to create a separate exam for other distros, like say, Gentoo or Slackware? > but in all of them you could > use the TZ variable to set the timezone for you, in an user wide way. > Also true, and that also might be worth adding to the exam objectives. _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
