LPIC-2 Linux Professional Institute Certification Study Guide: Exams 201 and 202

Customer Reviews:

Half-Decent complementary material

By Kahl - November 21, 2011

A bit of background:

I just passed the 202 today with a score of 590, hence getting my LPI 2 certification.
Before studying the topics I had never really interacted with network services to the degree required by the certification. (lots of detail)

To study for the test, I read around on man pages, official documentation, assorted forums and so on.
I read on the test requirements from the LPI.org website and went after the information myself. I ended up writing around 12.000 lines of documentation on Notepad++. I didn't do any fake tests beforehand or anything like that.

Which takes me to the book:

This book is great, I read Roderick Smith's Linux+ book (LPI version of the exam) which is also an excellent book, so I had no hesitation buying this book. Reading this book alone will not get you to 100% of what you need to pass the exams, practice and experience is whats going to get you a good score. What I did was read each chapter and then if I did not feel 100% about the subject in that chapter I started researching the topics covered, and investigated further about those topics, I also built a home lab utilizing virtual machines running on top of Fedora 15 (yum groupinstall Virtualization) so I could build a bind dns server, a apache web server, a squid proxy server, sendmail/postfix mail servers, etc. I rarely had to do more research on the first half... read more
