Hi All,
Sorry if this appears twice, our company has just changed email addresses,

I'm thinking of taking the RHCT course, but our company doesn't use
anything other than RHWS (v3) for our technical computing needs. There
are three of us who administer the systems; two of us are self taught
(with a lot of help from HOWTO and mailing lists ;-) ) and the other has
20+years of computing administration experience. My question is this, do
we need to get an ES or AS subscription, or could I just install (and
purposefully break) a FC4 system?
How much of the RHCT course is based on packages that are only contained
in the higher level server packages?
RHCT training is (currently) run on the ES version of RHEL4.
The RHCT syllabus is basically about *local* systems administration -
installing and configuring boxes and attaching them to various network
services. As such there is almost nothing involved which does not apply
to WS.
taking RHCE courses (the next level up) introduces network services and
security, which relies on packages that would not normally be installed
on WS boxen.
Ed is perfectly correct - you could use one of the 'rebuild' distros (or
even Fedora Core) to practise any of the network-based skills if you
decided to go further with training. The tools are broadly identical to
RHEL4 atm.
