Trouble Spots of the RCHE Exam:
SELinux: All services that are configured on the RHCE exam are supposed to be used in a context where SELinux is offering full protection.
Kerberized NFS Server Configuration: The RHCE objectives focus heavily on configuring a Kerberos protected NFS server. This topic is particularly complicated, because the procedure to set up a Kerberized NFS server has changed between RHEL 7.0 and 7.1.
Setting up iSCSI: The candidate has to be able to set up an iSCSI target as well as an initiator. Although this is not extremely hard to do, many administrators don't do this on a regular basis and for that reason don't have enough hands on experience.
Setting up Aggregated Network Interfaces: Setting up aggregated network interfaces using bonding or teaming is challenging, as it risks messing up the current network configuration, which will for sure lead to failure on the exam.
Creating Advanced Samba Configurations: The candidate has to be aware of many advanced Samba features, such as share based access control, SELinux configuration for Samba, and multi-user mounts.
Web Services: The configuration of Apache web services is among the essential topics on the EX300 exam. Advanced tasks such as configuration of virtual hosts, setting up private directories, and configuration of TLS security need to be completed.
Definitely have a lot of studying to do. Reading every day.

Which book is that from? Do your books cover 7.1?

@scottalanmiller This is from here: http://www.pearsonitcertification.com/articles/article.aspx?p=2438789
I don't have the RHCE Certification Book with me currently. I'm reading through the 500 ish pages of the command line book
Edit: If it doesn't I will simply buy a book that does

Well, it is newer. I need to get into the habit of using
less
instead ofmore
still myself. -

still myself.I actually never used either. I just opened everything up in a text editor and didn't edit it but that is a dangerous way to do it.

It's like I told @wirestyle22 yesterday offline, that I use them both. If I'm expecting a huge blurb of data, I'll use less. But most of the time, more does the trick.

less
is really powerful. A good command to learn. -
less is basically read only vi

@scottalanmiller said in Random Thread - Anything Goes:

I can buy that. You do have a way to do
less
interactively if I recall. -
So the history that this command line book gives you is really interesting and I just read a blip that said it is in fact a play on less is more. That's pretty funny.

Yeah, I was horribly imprecise again. I did mean that less is the new one.

Well I was thinking about it and thought it might be a joke if you see my post above but it was just confirmed now. I never knew less or more were commands before yesterday

In school, the profs all said that the initial commands for UNIX were thought up by a bunch of drunk college people.
