Cool! I've just started the basic linux course too! This site has lots of good links. http://www.worldwidelearn.com/linux.htm As for certification I think that there are only two that I would consider worthwhile. Explore the sites. I haven't made up my mind yet. SAIR Linux which is distro independant http://www.linuxcertification.com/ LPI which looks like it has heavyweight backers. http://www.lpi.org/ Also consider http://www.linuxdoc.org and for inspiration try: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.htmlhowto.html
