Reader Reviews
This review is from: Certified System Administrator for HP-UX: Study Guide and Administrator's Reference (Hardcover)
I already passed my CSA exam using another book written by Rafeeq Rheman. I bought this book for 2 reasons. The first reason is I need something to refresh knowledge before I take on the next level of the track which is CSE. The second reason is I wanted to add this book to my collection of UNIX/Linux system administration books. It turned out I made a good choice. The book is really good. Chapters are short and go straight to the essentials. The book covers well the Networking, security, and LDAP section. Those are the tricky areas of the exam. LDAP was not covered in the Rafeeq's book but this book does the job. If I have to choose between this book and the Rafeeq, I will go for this book. The reasons are the following: Pros: The book covers all the topic on the exam Chapter talk about the essential and important topic. Some screenshots, if you are not familiar with the HP-UX gui. The book has 564 practice exam questions, enough to put your brain to test. Cons: Perhaps the book layout but does not affect the topic at all and a few inconsistencies as expected. My advice if you have the means get this book and the Rafeeq book to maximize your chance of succes on the exam. I give 5 stars.
