[CentOS] exam
Dear CentOS users, is it possible to prepare for a certified (big North American Linux vendor) engineer exam with a CentOS install ? I have heard that the test contains questions on specific GUIs, are they included in the CentOS distribution? - Gergely ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

If big North American Linux vendor is RedHat, than answer will be yes. I have heard that the test contains questions on specific GUIs, are they included in the CentOS distribution? If tests doesn't contain any question like Please find logo of big North American Linux vendor on your machine or something like, than you can use CentOS and manuals directly from that vendor for learning and preparing. Good luck, Sergey. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Hi, is it possible to prepare for a certified (big North American Linux vendor) engineer exam with a CentOS install ? I assume the Linux vendor you mean is Red Hat, then yes, you can. I have heard that the test contains questions on specific GUIs, are they included in the CentOS distribution? I am an RHCA and I did all my preparations for exams with CentOS (except for the RH423, it uses Red Hat Directory server). CentOS and Red Hat are more than alike enough for the exams (and the courses by the way :) ). Regards, Michel ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] exam
Hy, We (a group within my company) prepare with the book from Michael Jang - RHCE Study Guide (McGrawHill Osbourne). It is very good and have Test-Exams in it. My thought is that you could prepare good with CentOS, but you can also use the original RH-CD/DVD Images (without the Installkey and the RHN Account it works fine). cheers Henrik Ruslan Sivak schrieb: Fabian Arrotin wrote: Gergely Buday wrote: Dear CentOS users, is it possible to prepare for a certified (big North American Linux vendor) engineer exam with a CentOS install ?

yes, corruption indeed, but i want to study why the program writes ^@ to this file. t. hiep On Thu, Apr 17, 2008 at 05:56:36AM -0700, Hiep Nguyen wrote: hi all, i have centos 5 w/o gui. i can only have access via ssh. i have a text file that contains special (unprintable) characters, what editor i can use to exam what those character are??? i use vi, but i don't know what is ^@ ^@ is the nul byte (zero byte). may be an editor that can show ASCII as dec or hex. xxd, included with vi, can show you the hex dump followed by the ascii one, while hexedit allows you to edit the file either entering the hexadecimal value or the ascii one.

It's mostly likely not an ASCII file; it's probably UTF16 or similar so there are two bytes for every character, but the high byte is 0x00 which shows as [EMAIL PROTECTED] If this is true then tr -d '\000' badfile goodfile will most likely fix it. -- rgds Stephen ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

DOS files typically have ^M characters at the end of each line and maybe a ^Z at the end of file. This is different to using an alternate character set. What about running dos2unix on it? The manual (at least on 4.5) doesn't specifically say it'll convert character sets. It might drop the \000 characters as it goes. *shrug* -- rgds Stephen ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
